More and more trans men deeply regret gender reassignment surgery, according to new report

Debbie, a biological female who transitioned to male two decades ago, says that she deeply regrets her transition, and is now seeking to undo the gender reassignment surgery that changed her life. In an interview with the BBC, Debbie, 61, says that she underwent a full surgery — creating a penis out of forearm skin — and took 17 years' worth of testosterone treatments. "This was a mistake that should never have happened," she says. "How do I go back to being the Debbie that I was?" When Debbie was 44 years old, she believed that living as a male would help her to become "accepted in the world." It turns out, she was wrong, because now — nearly two decades later — she is transitioning back into a woman.
