Sex reassignment surgery

About

Sex reassignment surgery (SRS) is a form of gender confirmation surgery in which the genitalia are reconfigured to match the patient's gender identity. In some jurisdictions, SRS is required before legal gender may be updated, but this practice is increasingly rare as many transgender people find it unnecessary or not worth the considerable trouble (not to mention risk, in situations where insurance does not cover the procedure).

• /misrepresentation: There are frequent misleading attempts to present SRS as unnecessary or harmful; it is in fact very effective at alleviating gender dysphoria in those who seek it.
