A woman, 26, who came out as a transgender man at 19 has revealed she is now ‘de-transition’ back to female – six years after starting testosterone and having her breasts surgically removed.
Issa Ismail, a barber from Detroit, Michigan, was born a woman. But at the age of 19, she announced that she was transgender and began transitioning to a male, beginning the physical process by taking testosterone.
She took the hormones for six years, and they completely changed her appearance, helping to create more masculine characteristics, such as a deeper voice, facial hair growth, and muscle growth, while redistributing fat away from her hips and breasts.
