A transexual is someone who believes him or herself to be the other gender from the one he/she was born, and undergoes hormone therapy and surgery to change the appearance of the body to the other gender (gender reassignment surgery). A preop transexual is someone who has decided to undergo gender reassignment surgery, has started taking hormone therapy, and usually has been living as the other gender for 1-2 years and undergoing therapy, but has not yet had the surgery. The hormones can alter the appearance of the preop transexual, making them appear more like the other gender. For example, men taking female hormones can stop growing facial hair, lose muscle mass, and become less aggresive. Females taking male hormones can start getting facial hair, gain muscle mass, and have a deeper voice. Some preop transexuals decide to stop and this point and live as the other gender with the hormones, without undergoing surgery. After gender reassignment surgery, the person will then legally be the gender they have been altered to be.
Pre-op indicates that the transsexual person has not yet had sex reassigment surgery.
Pre -- means before Op -- short for operation PreOp means before the operation.
Pre-op, Pre-op medicated, trans-op, and post op.
what properties would a pre op have
The term transexual means that a surgery has been done that removes the male penis and testicles which have been replaced with a vagina. Sperm is produced in the testicles. When they are gone, so is the sperm. Now I am aware that some people who consider themselves to be transexual are pre-op, that is they still have the male plumbing and are waiting for the surgery. Yes, that person would have sperm.
Post-op is after the reassignment surgery (they now have the parts of the sex opposite to what they were declared at birth). A pre-op transsexual person is someone who hasn't undergone sexual reassignment surgery. They still have the genitals they were wrongly born with.
It is only located in the tranny pre-op. Post-op it becomes a 'governor'
It is often referred to as "Pre Op"
A post-op transsexual refers to a person born with transsexualism who had their condition corrected with surgery. So the transsexual woman is just a woman afterwards. Likewise, the TS man is just a man. A pre-op TS is a person who was born with transsexualism (who is not merely transgendered) who will someday get the surgery. There is also a non-op TG who people often mistakenly call a non-op TS. That is a man who lives as a woman, or a woman who lives as a man, and who intends on never getting surgery. They are likely not transsexual at all. That is not the same as a pre-op TS who is living in poverty or who is in bad health. The fact they would get surgery if they could would make such persons pre-ops.
A she-male is technically postoperative (post-op) because breast augmentations were performed on the individual. They are not in transition to a social identified gender role.
Me.
AnswerYes but typically it will be included in the payment for surgery.
