The goal of this clinical trial is to test a new online tool designed to provide clear and understandable information to help individuals considering Metoidioplasty and Phalloplasty Gender Affirming Surgery (MaPGAS)make informed decisions The main questions it aims to answer are: * How user-friendly is the decision aid for individuals considering metoidioplasty and phalloplasty? * Does using the decision aid reduce uncertainty and improve readiness for making surgery decisions compared to usual care? Participants in this study will: * Be randomly assigned to either 1) receive usual care or 2) test the web-based decision aid. * Share their feedback on the tool's usability and its helpfulness in supporting decision-making. * Complete surveys before and after using the decision aid to measure any changes in their decision-making process. Researchers will compare participants who used the decision aid with those who received standard care to see if the decision aid reduces decisional uncertainty and improves readiness for surgery.
