Another giant can of worms is deciding which individuals get to choose what to do with their bodies.
You already can't have a doctor amputate your healthy limb.
There have been cases of individuals with BID (body integrity disphoria) that have had perfectly healthy limbs removed. Gender reassignment surgeries are also a replacement, not just an amputation. At the end of the surgery, the patient will still have perfectly working genitals, just ones that don't damage their mental health.
