A transwoman in Gujarat's Ahmedabad has cryopreserved four vials of semen ahead of a life changing sex surgery hoping to become the mother of the child she'll father.
According to a report in Times Of India, Dr Jesnoor Dayara, who was born a male, has preserved the semen at a fertility centre in Anand.
Dr Dayara, 25, who recently earned the MBBS degree from a Russian University, became the first transwoman doctor in Gujarat. Born in a small town in Godhra in Panchmahal, Gujarat, she was conscious at a young age of being a woman trapped in a man's body.
As per the report, she often yearned to wear a sari and use lipstick as her sister and mother used to do. But she took the cautious approach and kept her inner woman hidden so as to make sure her family didn't feel confused or alarmed.

The experience of fighting and coming clean about her identity has made her stronger and more independent. Over time, she gained the support of her family and society.
