If a woman transitions to male, they will take male hormones, which WILL increase muscle mass... It's already illegal in many sports...

If a male transitioning to female has the "bottom surgery", they will lose testosterone production, which will result in a decrease in muscle mass.

But... If this was done after puberty, the bone structure is already set, and that alone gives a mechanical advantage...
