Can I donate my breast tissue?

January 23, 2018
Asked By:Monsterjensen in Seattle, WA

Im a transgender man and I've been considering getting top surgery for a long time now when I can eventually afford it. I was wondering if, instead of just discarding it, I can ask the doctors to donate my breast tissue to cancer patients or possibly trans women/fem nb people so that they could make some good use of it.
