Alia Ismail, 30, from Detroit, Michigan, grew up as a woman, but decided to switch to a man, according to the British media Daily Mail.
Despite the dissuasion of her surroundings, she first transitioned to a male in May 2015 and underwent breast removal surgery.
He also changed his name to 'Issa', and for six and a half years, he took testosterone, a male hormone drug, showing masculine characteristics such as beard, low-pitched voice, and muscle growth.
But he realized in February 2021 that he was happier living as a woman.
Eventually, breast reconstruction surgery was started in January last year, and completed on December 30, 2024. After laser hair removal, the hair that had grown so thick was also neatly removed.
Back as a woman, Alia realized that she didn't want to be recognized as a man, and that she no longer wanted to take testosterone, and could not imagine that she would live the rest of her life as a man and grow old as a man" he insisted.
"I felt really good in the early days of transitioning to men.""I was disappointed in myself as I gained weight over time, my beard grew bigger, and became more masculine," she said. Then "So I thought I wanted to be a woman again. I'm happy to be back as a woman now,' he added.
Being criticized by the transgender community for de-transitioning, she says she wants to use her experience to help others struggling with her identity.
She wants to advise you to truly listen to yourself, follow your gut, and follow what is right for you."
