Birth certificate changes Michigan

[Torey]

Hi I am from michigan and in 2 weeks will be starting T I am going to legal change my name in a month but I have a question. I as of right now don't want bottom surgery I am just getting top and I don't know if I will ever want bottom surgery but my question is "Can I change my gender on my birth records or do I have to have all the surgeries?

AFAIK If you have a doctor that will sign off on the part about "completed all of the necessary surgery for gender reassignment" it will be fine. I know of at least one person who has done it that's MTF and understand that Top surgery is usually good enough as long as the doctor words it correctly.

Hopefully that helps. Oh search google for "michigan ftm gender change" and checkout the 3rd link FTMichigan

Wishing you luck
