Summary Cross paused his transgender hormone treatment in order to conceive.
LONDON (Web Desk) - Britain’s first transgender man Hayden Cross has given birth to a baby girl and has registered himself as a mother and not the father.
The news was confirmed by his family that the 21-year-old man conceived the baby on June 16 through a sperm donor he had met on Facebook.
Cross who was born a girl named Paige and was legally male paused his transgender hormone treatment in order to conceive.
The baby born at the Women’s Centre, the maternity wing of Gloucestershire Royal Hospital, has been named Trinity-Leigh Louise Cross. Both Cross and baby are said to be healthy and fine.
Three years back, Cross had started his hormone treatment to complete his transition but stopped the process midway to become pregnant.
Initially, he applied at the NHS to have his eggs frozen so that he could have a baby in the future but was refused the £4,000 procedure by the authorities.
He will now resume his transition and have his ovaries removed.
