On June 29, 2008, a sensational message spread around the news sites - Thomas Beaty, known as the first pregnant man in the world, gave birth to a girl by caesarean section. Four weeks before this event, Thomas agreed to take part in a nude photo shoot. Then he, along with his wife Nancy, gave an exclusive interview to the News of the World magazine. The couple talked about preparing for the happy event. In addition, they stated that they would not mind having more children.

Truth or joke?

And just a few months before, the incredible story was covered by the world's leading news agencies. As if in the USA, in the city of Bend, there lives a pregnant man named Thomas Beaty. Then he was already in his fifth month. Everyone thought it was a joke launched on the eve of April 1st. But the journalists carefully investigated everything and checked the facts.

Thomas gave his first interview to a magazine for sexual minorities called "Lawyer". Assistant editor Neil Boverman said he not only spoke to Beaty himself, butand went to his gynecologist, who confirmed Thomas's pregnancy. It would seem, how is this possible? After all, a man does not have organs for bearing a child. As it turns out, Beetee has them.

What's the secret?

The secret is that the first pregnant man on this planet was born a girl. In his youth, he even participated in a Hawaiian beauty pageant. And already in adulthood, Thomas wanted to change sex. Such cases are now not uncommon. Hormone therapy and breast removal helped to carry out the plan. Beetee's stubble began to grow and he looked like a man. Thomas also changed his documents and became a man in a legal sense. The only thing left of a woman is her genitals. Beaty did not get rid of them, as some people usually do when changing sex, and did not reattach the penis.

After the operation, Thomas got married and lived with his wife Nancy for 10 years. The couple really wanted a child. But Nancy became quite ill and had to have her uterus removed. That's when the couple decided that Beaty was carrying the baby. Of course, a pregnant man is very unusual, but the couple saw no other way.

When Thomas went to hospitals, medical workers met his decision with a manifestation of discrimination and real bullying. The first doctor he went to told Beety to shave. The rest just didn't get it. Everyone at the receptions laughed together.

Process of conception

But despite all the difficulties, Beetee did not give up. future pregnantthe man, whose photo is posted in the article, began to actively act. And it turned out to be a success. After Thomas found a doctor, he advised him to stop hormone therapy. After a while, Beetee's periods returned. Then, realizing his feminine essence, Thomas agreed to be fertilized with donor sperm. The attempt was unsuccessful. Began to develop an ectopic pregnancy, Beaty lost the fallopian tube. Normal fertilization was successful from the second time. The pregnant man felt normal, and everything proceeded without complications.

Despite the fact that a new life was ripening inside Thomas, he never once doubted his gender. In a technical sense, Beaty was an ordinary surrogate mother for his child, but at the same time he did not stop identifying himself as a member of the stronger sex. Yes, now he is a pregnant man, but then he will become a father to his daughter, and his wife Nancy will become a mother. And they will have a real family. By the way, they are very lucky with the place of residence. In a small town, spouses are perceived as a happy couple in love.

Thomas has entered into an agreement with a number of American media and now does not give interviews just like that. Recently, Beaty kicked Canadian National News reporters out, saying it was a pretty big deal and now only certain channels and print outlets can tell the world their story.

Specialist comment

When Russian gynecologist Andrei Malyshev found out that there was a pregnant man (see photoabove), I was very surprised and decided to study this story in more detail. The doctor concluded that the injected hormones had no noticeable effect on Thomas's reproductive organs. And they were able to restore their own functions. However, this event is simply unique. He would be the envy of thousands of "normal" women who have problems conceiving. It is quite understandable that the birth was a temporary performance by Thomas of the female role. At the moment, he has returned to his male form.
