Can a transgender man have a period?

Answer 1

No.

Yes.
"Transgendered man" means a man that was born female, and has identified as male, or taken hormonal and/or surgical steps to become male. Unless he has had a hysterectomy then it would be possible for him to have periods and become pregnant.

Answer 2

Post-operative male to female transgendered individuals do not have periods due to the fact that they do not have a uterus. The operation inverts the penile tissues into the body creating what is called a neovagina. Often part of the penis head remains at the deep end if the neovagina resembling a cervix, allowing the surgery to fool even gynecologists.

Female to Male individuals may continue to have periods, however with extended testosterone exposure, periods will reduce significantly and possibly stop entirely. Post-operative female to male individuals do not have periods.

Answer 3

Only if she is born a woman can she have a period. Otherwise she would not have ovaries or uterus.

Edit: Actually, that's not completely true. While its true trans women can't menstruate in the traditional sense (as in "blood comes out of their vagina"), most trans women report having to deal with the same mood cycles that all women have to deal with.

For example, I'm trans, and there's a few days a month when I just feel really "over exposed", and everything feels a lot more grating, and I'm way more moody.

It makes sense when you think about it. After all, the brain is what finally determines when its time for that cycle to start, and as been's proven by scientific community, trans women's brains are wired much closer to female, than male's (in terms of how they respond to stimulus, hormones, and lots of other stuff too.).

So while trans women can't menstruate in the traditional sense, they often have to deal with the emotional aspects that accompany the hormonal cycling associated with having a period.

Also, there are even some trans women that report cramps of some sort too - which again, if you're hormones are at that place, they will definitely turn some knots in your stomach. Although, obviously, a trans woman having cramps would NOT be related to them shedding their uterine lining. It would strictly be hormone related.

(I can't speak for that one, myself.. I'm lucky enough not to have to deal with cramps really, but the mood cycling is DEFINITELY real.)

..........

TL;DR: Trans women don't menstruate in the traditional sense, but they do have to deal with similar mood fluctuations associated with having a period, and even sometime, cramps. :)

Hope this helps!

Answer 4

Yes, most transgender men will menstruate at some point in their lives as they start life with the same anatomy as cis women, unless they start hormone therapy before entering puberty they will start to menstruate. Not all trans men use hormonal therapy or have their female anatomy removed, thus even if they transition into being a man they may still menstruate. That's why when talking about people who menstruate we try to say 'menstruators' rather than 'women'.

Answer 5

Yes, a transgender man is a man who was born female thus he has the same anatomy as a woman and so will menstruate. Unless he was started on hormonal treatment before puberty then likely he would have menstruated at some point in his life and may continue to menstruate for the rest of his life. Not all trans men will have gender reassignment surgery, hysterectomy, or even hormone treatment. This is why we try to say 'menstruating people' or 'menstruators' when talking about those who menstruate, rather than assuming all who menstruate are women.

Answer 6

Yes, some transgender men do have periods - if they have female reproductive organs and if their hormonal treatment hasn't stopped their menstrual cycles. Most trans men I know use menstrual cups so they don't have to worry about it too much, or some menstrual product companies like Thinx are making products or advertising to include products to trans men too.

Answer 7

douses of testosterone would be taken to stop the peirod/get facial hair

Answer 8

If hormones are taken and surgery is undergone, then no.

Answer 9

Only if they aren't on testosterone and still have a uterus.
