London: A Brit man is seeking help from medical experts after he started turning into a woman naturally.
Pub singer Terry Wright started losing his hair and beard ten years ago and since then he has developed smooth skin, hot flushes and boobs.
The father-of-five has revealed that kids living nearby make fun him by calling him ‘She-Man’.
According to his blood tests, the 60-year-old has abnormally high levels of the female hormone oestrogen.
And doctors who have examined him say that they have never seen such a case – and do not know what to do to reverse the process.
Wright, of Birmingham, is now begging medical experts to help him.
“I am a man, not a woman. And I do not want to be a woman. I just want to get my life back to normal,” The Sun quoted him, as saying.
“Doctors call me an ‘interesting case’ and ‘unique’ but I just want to go back to being a proper man.
“I get mocked by kids where I live who call me She-Man and other names. Once a child bumped into me and its mother said, ‘Say sorry to the lady.’ My mates are shocked at my appearance but try to make light of it by saying I’m just a pretty-looking man,” he added.
A psychiatrist has judged him mentally sound and an MRI scan ruled out the oestrogen surge being caused by a tumour.
Specialist Professor Richard Ross said: “This case seems very unusual.”
