During female to male sex reassignment, the clitoris
is removed and the genitalia are reshaped to resemble a penis and scrotum.
Typically, the penis is constructed several months to a year after removing the
female genitalia. The simulation of an erection requires a pump device that is
inserted into the new penis and scrotum.
