سچی کہانی ٹرانزینڈر میں پوسٹ لگنی ہے یہ ٹراز ٹرانس جینڈر کی سچی کہانی میں لگانی ہے پوسٹ This is the story of a young person from South Punjab. At first glance, you might think it’s a boy — but in reality, she is an intersex girl.She is neither a transgender person nor a khawaja sira — she was born intersex.Sadly, due to ignorance, shame, and lack of awareness, she could not get timely medical treatment. Now, because of hormonal changes, she has developed facial hair.She was once one of five sisters — but now, she has taken on the role of a “brother,” doing hard labor just to survive.All because we, as a society, failed to support her when it mattered most.Her heartbreaking story — in her own words — is available now on the Birth Defects Foundation’s YouTube channel.📢 Please watch it yourself and share it with others, so we can raise awareness and help thousands of intersex children get timely treatment — before they reach a point where they can no longer speak their pain.📺 Click the YouTube link to watch the video.

A True Story: A Patient Caught Between Being Transgender and IntersexThis is the real story of a young patient from India, around 25–26 years old, who found the Birth Defects Foundation through its YouTube channel and other online sources. He reached out with a deep concern: he was unsure about his gender identity and had lived with this confusion for a long time.Through online consultations (OPD) and tests arranged by the Birth Defects Foundation, it was determined that his condition could, in fact, be treated. Medically, he had the anatomy of a normal male, and with appropriate surgery, his issues could be resolved completely.However, according to the patient, when he consulted doctors in India, they dismissed his case by saying, “You should just join the transgender community — your life will go on with them.” This response left him confused and disheartened.He pinned his hopes on the Birth Defects Foundation, trusting in its guidance and care. He shared his reports, voice messages, and detailed chats with the team. But after a full diagnosis, he was advised to pursue treatment in India itself — not because the Foundation didn’t want to help, but because of the current geopolitical situation. Due to restrictions on visas between India and Pakistan, he simply cannot travel to Pakistan for surgery.The essence of this story is not just about one patient. It’s about the reality that only God knows the full extent of each person’s struggles. The Birth Defects Foundation has always kept its doors open to humanity — regardless of race, religion, or nationality. Anyone in need of medical care is welcomed.In this particular case, the patient was honestly informed that the Foundation, given current circumstances, could not assist further. He was advised to consult a qualified urologist and endocrinologist in India for further evaluation and surgical planning. He mentioned that the cost of the operation in India is approximately 1.5 million Indian Rupees, a figure that has deeply worried him. He said, “When I learned that treatment like this was possible, I had so much hope.”May Allah ease this young man’s journey and create pathways for his healing.

Awareness Saves Lives – A Message from Birth Defects FoundationDuring a recent weekly OPD, a young man visited Professor Dr. Afzal Sheikh, convinced by someone that he had an issue with his gender identity. After a thorough examination, Dr. Afzal Sheikh assured him that he was completely healthy and had no such issue. The young man was so relieved and overjoyed that he immediately asked his family to speak with Dr. Afzal over the phone to share in the good news.Similarly, two young girls faced significant challenges later in life due to issues that could have been resolved during childhood—had there been awareness and timely intervention. Their parents, unaware of treatment options, struggled for years. Thankfully, the Birth Defects Foundation provided them with complete guidance, clarity on all aspects, and the freedom to make informed decisions.All of this progress is only possible because of your continued support in spreading awareness. When you share our message on social media, you help save real lives. In fact, many individuals have said that they only learned about the Foundation and its work through social media—and that’s when they realized they too should get checked.Only Allah can truly reward your efforts—we are simply grateful for your support.Contact: 0308-5781723Birth Defects Foundation
