Call me crazy, but I was thinking about the possibilities of implanting a second penis...

Forget the penis, I can get a new kidney that my body won't reject or require me to take anti-rejection medication for the rest of my life @_@! My left kidney isn't great, and kidney failure runs in my family XP. Hopefully at worst my right kidney can take up the slack. Hopefully this technology is perfected in my lifetime ;_;! I'm only 22, so it looks good :'D.

Not sure what to say about the penis thing. I think it's gonna be a really long time before this option is available to the transgender community. It's first going to people who have suffered traumatic injuries to their genitals. Hopefully it won't be too long since the world is slowly but surely becoming more accepting of us.

i doubt this will come to be a doable treatment in our life times but it makes me happy seeing these advancements in science.

You never know. They couldn't even do that a short while ago. Science takes leaps and bounds rather quickly. I certainly hope these doctors and scientists keep up the good work. Even if it doesn't become something that is for the trans community, advances like this can really make people's lives better, or even save them.

Your diet is so very important so drink lots of water and eat radishes which are great for cleansing kidneys

Even if this option never becomes available for me, it still makes me happy to know the technology's being developed.

If it's not available by the time I become a full fledged scientist, then I will either make it available myself or push for it to be made available.
