Court in Japan allows transgender woman to officially change gender without compulsory surgery

Japanese high court permits transgender woman to change her gender without surgery, addressing economic burdens and equal rights protections. Hormonal therapy sufficed, with the Supreme Court earlier ruling sterilization unconstitutional. Although non-binding, this ruling marks progress for transgender females. Some questions about hormone access remain. The claimant expressed relief at this landmark decision.
