Kerala trans man fights a historic legal battle
The Morning Standard
|November 18, 2025
A 28-year-old from Attingal who was assigned female at birth, identifies as a transgender man and has undergone gender-affirming treatment -- including hormone therapy and double mastectomy in 2023 - is currently involved a landmark legal battle. Hari Devageeth is seeking the right to cryo-preserve his gametes for use at a later stage in life.
In a petition filed before the Kerala High Court, Hari stated that he has not yet completed sex-reassignment surgery. Once he undergoes the procedure, he will lose all remaining feminine reproductive features and will have to undergo a complete hysterectomy, including removal of the ovaries. Before taking that irreversible step, Hari said he wishes to preserve his gametes to keep open the possibility of having a biological child in the future.
