The ministry is now soliciting public and professional______【51】on the draft guideline. The coming guideline aims to regulate and standardize sex reassignment surgery, part of a treatment for gender identity disorder in transsexuals.
    Experts______【52】nearly 2,000 Chinese have undergone sex-change surgery while 100,000 to 400,000 are still considering it. However, no official number is available. In the draft, the MOH sets minimum ______【53】for both surgical candidates and medical institutions.
    Candidates for the surgery must be older than 20 and single, the draft guideline said.
    They are also required to prove a persistent______【54】for a sex change, to live for at least five consecutive years full-time in the new gender role, and to engage mental therapy for at least one year.
    Before surgery can take place, a candidate must receive a recommendation for the operation from a______【55】after an appropriate series of therapy sessions. Also, several legal requirements must be met______【56】the procedure. The candidate must provide proof from police that he or she has does not have any criminal______【57】in the past.
    Police must also agree to change the sex status on the identity card of the receiver before the______【58】can take place.

    But doctors also warn______【60】all stakeholders, including the hospital and prospective receivers, should be highly cautious about this surgery.

Doctors should make it clear to those______【62】sex-change surgeries that the option always remains to continue to live in the original role. The guideline ______【63】surgeons to tell patients about other options such as hormone therapy.
    They are also required to explain the______【64】involved, and underlying social barriers including discrimination, and administrative recognition and approval.
