A trans woman intentionally burnt her own penis in a desperate attempt to get it removed.
The 57-year-old, from Australia, was born a man but felt that she had been living in the wrong body.
The unidentified woman only sought medical help seven days after suffering a self-inflicted chemical burn injury. Doctors who shared her tale in a medical journal did not reveal how it happened.
Gender-affirming surgery, which can involve removing the penis, is currently not covered by Medicare, Australia's national public health insurance.
Instead, patients must seek costly private ops.
While some local health authorities do provide clinics that link patients with health providers, they often have long waiting lists.
Trans women can have complicated ops to remove their genitals and replace them with an artificial vagina.
For trans men, such procedures can include the surgical removal of the breasts and the construction of a penis and scrotum.
Writing in Urology Case Reports, medics said the patient was transferred to Royal North Shore Hospital in St Leonards in Sydney, for a urology and burns review.
Medics found that she had necrosis — dead body tissue — at the tip of the penis and burns, swelling and redness along the penile shaft.

No mental issue here!
He’s not a “trans woman” he’s a mentally ill man.
We need an app or a website that would correct the language of an article. It would change “trans woman” to “pretend woman” and change “her penis” to “his penis”.
I never could figure out if the “trans” was a male or female. Then a FReeper said to just replace the word with “fake”, and that works for me.

Can we speed up this process ?
Fixed the headline... 🤓
Still a man. Just one that has to sit down to micturate.
“burnt her own penis”
Never thought you’d ever see those words in that combination, did you?
Ho is how...
”Man-hands” was about Jerry finding a reason to reject a beautiful woman...and Bizarro World.
Yea, no mental illness going on here…. He just wants to be his “true self!”
