Jazz Jennings’ Surgery Details
Being a transgender person, Jazz was on hormone blockers since she was 11 years old that paused any further development as a male. She also started taking estrogen pills since high school.
When she finally came of age for the gender confirmation surgery, there were complications as she did not have enough tissue growth for the operation to be carried out, and several surgeons denied to carry out the process. Furthermore, she had to lose thirty pounds before the surgery, which in itself was challenging.
