Transgender reproductive health

Asia Pacific Transgender Network (APTN) has curated this resource for transgender people and communities across the region. Through this resource, we hope to answer frequently asked questions and address unvoiced experiences and anxieties of transgender persons about their bodies, sexuality, pleasure and relationships, and their reproductive health needs, with an aim to empower trans people with knowledge and awareness to fully exercise their bodily rights.

The two main non-medical ways that some transgender men and trans masculine people use to create a more masculine appearance are binding and packing. Binding is a way to create a flatter chest, while packing creates a bulge in the pants. While not every trans man chooses to use these methods, many find they relieve dysphoria and help them feel confident.
