Chest Free

For many transmasculine people, chest dysphoria is a constant background presence — and FTM top surgery, when the time comes, is both a medical procedure and something far more personal. These writers speak to both dimensions.

Inside this volume

Fifty first-person accounts describe the path to FTM top surgery and beyond: researching surgeons and techniques, the weeks of waiting and preparation, the recovery and its demands, and the experience of inhabiting a chest that finally feels like one's own. Writers are candid about complications, revisions, and unexpected emotions alongside the relief.

Who it's for

For those preparing for or recovering from top surgery, their partners and families, and anyone wanting human company on a road that can feel isolating.
