I feel like a boomer for asking this, but a "transgender man" means a woman pretending to be a man, right? Because I'm inclined to think that a transgender man is a man who is transgender and pretends to be a woman.
As a boomer whose past menopause I’ll explain it. These are women who want to be men. They end up going through menopause at a young age due to the lack of estrogen and progesterone. Those are the hormones responsible for menstruation. The other problems are probably also related to the lack of female hormones. It basically screws up their entire bodies. So sadly they will never be the same again. Infertile with a ton of health problems to boot.
Makes sense. Our bodies are only meant for the hormones they are meant to process. Likewise, men who overdose on estrogen will have low bone density, erectile dysfunction, and become highly irritable (among other symptoms).
