After giving birth, in less than a year, Zahad, who had his breast removed, would begin the process of transitioning to a trans man. Ziya has began her journey to become a transwoman at the same time. They intend to feed the infant breast milk, for that, they would be availing the services of Government Medical College Hospital, Kozhikode's Breast milk bank.

Previously the couple discussed adopting a child and they also inquired about the procedure.
