For those of you with penises who may give birth, you’ll be glad to know college students are preparing to care for your needs.
As seen in documents reportedly obtained by feminist site Reduxx, those studying midwifery at Scotland’s prominent Edinburgh Napier University were recently provided a “Skills Workbook.”
The topic at…hand: catheterization.
According to Reduxx, per the material:
Important to remember that although most births will be of female genitalia (mostly), you might have to care for someone who is pregnant, or is transitioning to female birth. They may also have external male sexual organs. It is important to know the anatomy of male and female catheterizations. This book also refers to the person who gives birth, if necessary.
Further instructions are given in the manual on how to catheterize (and work urethras) the expectant woman.
Male Anatomy Catheterization: Procedure
- You must prepare the individual while keeping their dignity. If necessary, place a disposable pad beneath (and remove your underwear).
- If you are in an acute situation, cover the bed. For community settings close the curtains/door.
- With legs outstretched, assist the individual to fall into a supine posture.
- Assure that the person is comfortable.
- Put on a disposable apron and wash your hands once more. Use the first pair of sterilized gloves.
- Place sterile towel across the person’s thighs, ensuring the scrotal area is covered.
- Apply a sterile cotton swab on the penis. Then, using the same, non-touch technique as before, pull the foreskin, if any, from the skin.
There are two doses for anesthesia: one is prescribed to females (6 milliliters), and the other to males (11 milliliters).
For post-procedure work, the workbook goes straight to the point:
- Male anatomy: Make sure to clean the entire area, from the front to the back.
- Male anatomy: Make sure to clean the meatus.
If a biological male is about to pass a baby through his penis, he surely won’t be comfortable for long.
Culture has also given rise to new standards for sexual behavior.
It is dilation to make more room.

Adjustment is a process that takes time during any type of transition.
A Woman Undergoes Surgery to Have a Penis Added, but Doctors Remove Her Vagina – Which She Wanted to Keep
As noted by Reduxx, Chartered Society for Physiotherapy Fellow Elaine Miller isn’t in agreement with Edinburgh Napier’s instruction.
Frau Rieger argues that she made errors
“It is not possible for a male person to get pregnant,” Miller said, continuing that even the hasty edits the instructors made were rife with impossibilities.
“A [female] with a gender difference can become pregnant but will not have male genitalia,” she notes, expressing concern that even if instruction was given on serving female-to-male transgender patients, the information was still both incomplete and unrealistic.
“Most [females] who use testosterone, at the doses used for ‘transition,’ will develop vaginal atrophy. The fragile tissue of an atrophied vagina may be unable to stretch to accommodate a baby’s head,” Miller says, also noting that female-to-male transgender people who wish to naturally deliver are at risk of sustaining “new types of birth injury” that have not yet been studied or investigated.
“Examining this potential risk is probably more important than learning to remove a catheter from a non-existent prostate gland.”
The times have changed. It seems that there are new possibilities. The university — which, purportedly, has now edited its catheterization guide — may have raised eyebrows with talk of birthing penises; but the stork of modern technology has all kinds of miracles on the way:
