A 28-year-old transgender man approached the Kerala High Court after a private hospital refused to preserve his eggs. Assigned female at birth, he now identifies as male and wishes to preserve his reproductive options before undergoing hormone therapy. The case raises crucial questions about reproductive rights for transgender individuals. The court’s decision could set an important precedent for gender-affirming healthcare in India.
Himachal Pradesh High Court granted bail to a man accused of deceiving a transgender person with false marriage promises. It ruled that Section 69 of the BNS applies only to women, not transgender individuals. The accused may still face charges under Section 18(d) of the Transgender Persons Act for abuse, and the case will be decided in the lower court.
