    Phalloplasty is so heavy duty that you’d be out of commission for several years anyway. Even with the other option, metadioplasty, (basically, they cut loose the clitoris and sometimes reroute urethra) you’d be out at least 6 months. I doubt they’d allow surgeries until after you served for some amount of time, just hormones.

      Sounds like an impossible dream although I do know at least 3 trans people.
