That objective has resulted in the proliferation of medical tourism companies, marketing not just nose jobs and hair transplants, but vaginoplasties, mastectomies and penis constructions through glossy English-language websites.ImageDr. Shahryar Cohanzad, a urologist based in Tehran who has performed around 300 transition surgeries, says tour companies\u2019 practices can be unsafe.Credit...Arash Khamooshi for The New York Times\u201cWe handle everything from start to finish, providing the best medical services to ensure a stress-free experience,\u201d said Farideh Najafi, the manager of two medical tourism companies, MabnaTrip and MedPalTrip. \u201cThis includes booking hotels, hospitals, transportation and more,\u201d she said.AdvertisementSKIP ADVERTISEMENTIran is one of the few places in the Muslim world that allows transgender people to seek gender-affirming care, and even subsidizes it. For many foreigners traveling to Iran for transition surgery, and indeed for many transgender Iranians, these operations can feel lifesaving. But the country\u2019s reputation as a pioneer in the field belies the abusive history of the operations and the grim reality for most L.G.B.T.Q. people there.In Iran, gay men and lesbians can be punished by public flogging and the death penalty. As a result, the United Nations Human Rights Council found, many gay and lesbian Iranians who are not trans are \u201cpressured into undergoing gender reassignment surgery without their free consent.\u201dStill, the country\u2019s cut-rate prices are drawing transgender individuals from as far away as Australia, the United States, Britain and Europe, according to medical tour operators and surgeons. Many more patients, they say, come from neighboring countries, like Iraq, where such treatments are strictly forbidden.\u201cIn the United States, the cost of surgery is around $45,000, and in Thailand, it\u2019s approximately $30,000,\u201d according to the website of one operator, IranMedTour. \u201cHowever, the cost of gender confirmation surgery in Iran is lower, with prices less than $12,000.\u201d Other companies advertise procedures at government hospitals for as low as $4,500.AdvertisementSKIP ADVERTISEMENTSam, 32, a trans man from Orange County, Calif., is currently in Tehran to pursue a hysterectomy and metoidioplasty, a kind of penis-construction surgery. Requesting anonymity to discuss a sensitive medical procedure, he said he was drawn to Iran because he believed the doctors there were \u201cmore confident\u201d than those in the United States.ImageMr. Arastu, holding a photo of himself taken before his transition in which he was preparing for a role in a television show.Credit...Arash Khamooshi for The New York Times\u201cThe goal of these medical tours is probably to portray Iran as a paradise for trans people, which it isn\u2019t,\u201d said Saman Arastu, a transgender Iranian man and actor who chose to undergo so-called top and bottom surgeries. \u201cIn my opinion, these are nothing but a show. The situation for trans people is dire.\u201dWhile precise figures are unknown, a report by the Home Office of Britain from 2022 found that roughly 4,000 people underwent transition surgery each year in Iran, a figure higher than the combined annual totals in Britain and France. Experts say a vast majority of patients come from inside Iran.Iran\u2019s experience with transition surgery stems from a fatwa issued in the 1980s by the Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, the founding supreme leader of the Islamic republic, who declared that transgender individuals could gain legal recognition of the gender with which they identified, but only on the condition that they underwent transition surgery.AdvertisementSKIP ADVERTISEMENTOn the surface that policy inverts what many in the West expect from Iran, where gender norms are so strictly enforced that until recently women were punished for not wearing hijabs in public. But transgender Iranians and experts say the government\u2019s embrace of surgery in no way correlates to advocacy for trans people.Iranians who do not adhere to traditional norms of masculinity and femininity \u2014 including trans people who do not want surgery \u2014 are subject to violence, extortion or are pressured into operations.\u201cFor the Islamic republic, being trans means you have to go through this surgery \u2014 from male to female, female to male,\u201d said Zara Saeidzadeh of Orebro University in Sweden, a gender scholar who has spent a decade researching trans identity, with a focus on Iran. \u201cIf you identify as trans but don\u2019t want to do any form of body modification, then you\u2019re breaking the rules and you are going to be stigmatized and your life is threatened.\u201dRaha Ajoudani, a 20-year-old trans woman and activist, made the opposite journey that many foreign tourists are making. She fled to Germany from Iran in 2024 to avoid a forced transition surgery and to escape state persecution for her activism. Ms. Ajoudani said that she was detained twice by the authorities in 2022, after an ex-boyfriend collaborated with the Iranian Ministry of Intelligence, to facilitate her arrest. Her family, she added, is routinely hounded to get her to stop her activism.

I didn\u2019t want to live according to the governmental definition of cultural expectations of being a woman or a man, nor did I submit to Khomeini\u2019s fatwa.\u201dSurgery is not a guarantee of acceptance or safety. Transgender people in Iran face murder and other forms of violence and harassment.The tour companies include language to assuage foreigners of those fears in their advertising materials.Amid glossy before-and-after photo illustrations of idealized pectorals and breasts, and copy that promises \u201cbudget-friendly\u201d procedures, rapid visa approvals and help achieving \u201ca strong feeling of happiness and relief,\u201d the tour companies are also selling patients on what one calls Iran\u2019s \u201crelatively progressive stance on transgender rights.\u201dAdvertisementSKIP ADVERTISEMENTMs. Najafi, the tour manager, conceded that some foreigners feared running afoul of the authorities or the locals, but said that patients traveling with her company had \u201cnever had any security issues.\u201dTransition surgeries are complex operations with a questionable record of safety in Iran. Some activists have likened the country\u2019s gender clinics to \u201cbutcher\u201d shops.VideoMr. Arastu taking a walk.CreditCredit...Saghi Ghahraman, who led the Iranian Queer Organization, said that while they believed treatment standards had improved, the change had come at a cost, as many gay people felt forced into operations that were like \u201cexperiments.\u201dA U.N. report on transition surgeries in Iran from 2015 described botched procedures that led to complications like \u201csevere bleeding, severe infection, scarring, chronic pain and abnormally shaped or located sexual organs.\u201dAdvertisementSKIP ADVERTISEMENTAdding to the risks are some tour companies\u2019 promises of rapid procedures, which experts said should involve months of planning. Some market stay timelines as short as one week.Dr. Shahryar Cohanzad, a urologist in Tehran who has performed around 300 transition surgeries, said the companies\u2019 aim to perform as many procedures as quickly as possible was unsafe.\u201cFrom what I know after 35 years of performing surgeries, it\u2019s critical for the surgeon to spend as much time as possible with the patient,\u201d he said.ImageDr. Cohanzad consulting with a patient at his office in Tehran.Credit...Arash Khamooshi for The New York TimesEric, a 45-year-old trans man living in Canada who requested anonymity to protect himself and his family from reprisals, said he had sought treatment in Iran because it was cheap. But he acknowledged the tension in seeking treatment in a place where others have it forced on them.\u201cI have heard a lot, especially among trans women, that because they are gay, and they cannot be gay in Iran, they try to do the surgery,\u201d said Eric. \u201cI\u2019m really sad that gays and lesbians are not recognized in Iran, but on the other hand I\u2019m happy for trans people because they can do what they\u2019re willing to do.\u201dPranav Baskar is an international reporter and a member of the 2025-26 Times Fellowship class, a program for journalists early in their careers.A version of this article appears in print on Oct. 12, 2025, Section A, Page 6 of the New York edition with the headline: Iran Promotes Trans Surgery Forced on Its Own.
