What would happen if a male started to take Ortho-Tricyclen?
-
Male on Ortho-Tricyclen
-
He'll turn into a woman
-
Are you serious? Because I'm a genetic male transitioning into the woman role and would like more womanly features. I have pretty much the same things as my mom...like blood type and blood ressure crap. If I start taking it daily, what would be the outcome?
-
Umm birth control will not turn you into a woman.
-
Then what will it do to me?
-
unless you are able to have children - and have a period - i dont think it'll do anything to you since its purpose is to preven pregnancy.
-
But wouldn't it introduce estrogen into my system therefore leading to changes because of the hormone?
-
Estrogens make males develop breasts, though the estrogen in Ortho-Tricyclen is an artificial one (it would probably have the same effect, though). However, Ortho-Tricyclen (and all female oral contraceptives) also contains a progesterone, and I don't know what that would do to a male. I wouldn't recommend it.

I used to be a pharmacy tech. A transexual male customer used birth control pills to grow breasts... He actually tried to make his insurance company cover it. Obviously, they didn't.
