It is not permissible to proceed with a gender reassignment surgery unless medical examinations prove that the reproductive system of the person concerned is male, while outwardly appearing female. In such a case, there is no objection to performing it. However, if the examinations show that female characteristics are predominant and that her reproductive system is female, then she is not permitted to undergo this surgery.
