Brief Answer:
Genital reconstruction surgery and hormone replacement therapy

Detailed Answer:
Hello and Welcome

I appreciate your concern

Genital reconstruction surgery and hormone replacement therapy are the two options.

The Hormone replacement therapy is used to alter the secondary sexual characteristics from masculine to feminine.

Genital reconstruction surgery is required to address the primary sex characteristics altering their appearance.

The starting point would be consulting an endocrinologist with special interest in transgender HRT.

Wishing you best of health

Thanks
