Dozens of transgender teenagers are freezing their sperm or eggs on the NHS in case they want children after changing sex, doctors have said.

Boys as young as 12 who have been diagnosed with “gender dysporia” are having sperm frozen before they start hormone treatment that halts the onsent of puberty.

Doctors behind the scheme, which also preserves eggs from girls who believe they were born the wrong sex, said it was only fair to give patients the right to start a family.

NHS clinics are also freezing the eggs of girls from the age of 16 before they begin taking male hormones that will reduce fertility. Egg-freezing costs £4,000 for one cycle and around £300 for storage a year, while the price of preserving sperm is around £400, plus £300 a year to keep it frozen.
