TAIPEI, Taiwan -- A woman who underwent a sex-change operation in February told reporters that she was asked to take a physical examination required for men fulfilling compulsory military services in Taiwan, local media reported yesterday.

The National Conscription Agency (NCA), operating under the Ministry of the Interior, said there had been "some mistakes" throughout the course of action.

The female medical school student, surnamed Su, received her new identity card, stating her gender as "female," last month, local media said.
