THREE'S ENOUGH: 'Now I want to have a hysterectomy'
The 'Pregnant Man' Thomas Beatie is putting his giving birth days behind him.
In an exclusive interview with The Doctors, in which he talks about becoming a man, giving birth and life after childbirth, he reveals that he has given birth to his last baby and is considering having a hysterectomy.
Having been born a woman, Beatie legally became a man in 2002 but did not have his female reproductive organs removed.
He hit headlines around the world as the first 'pregnant man' with his bearded face and protruding belly.
He now has three children with his wife Nancy.
During each pregnancy, he had to go off his male hormones for the health of the child.
He says the effect of going off the hormones on his body, is more than he wants to go through again.
A hysterectomy will help stabilise him medically as a male, according to RadarOnline.
Beatie was born as a woman, Tracy Lagondino, but says he always felt like he wanted to be a man.
When he was in his twenties began having testosterone injections, giving him facial hair, a lower voice and altering his sexual organs.
In 2002 he had a mastectomy and legally became a man - but he chose to keep his vagina, uterus and other female sexual organs so the couple could have children, as his wife could not conceive.
