Regeneration could also change a Time Lord's [[Sex (trait)|biological sex]]. [[The Doctor]], [[the Master]], [[the Monk]], [[Rindle]], and [[Lake (The Lady in the Lake)|Lake]] each had [[female]] incarnations, while the majority of their incarnations were male. ([[TV]]: ''[[Twice Upon a Time (TV story)|Twice Upon a Time]]'', ''[[Dark Water (TV story)|Dark Water]]'', [[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Wrong Woman (audio story)|The Wrong Woman]]'', ''[[The Lady in the Lake (audio story)|The Lady in the Lake]]'') [[The General]] was usually a woman, but one of their incarnations was a bald white male. ([[TV]]: ''[[Hell Bent (TV story)|Hell Bent]]'') Other Time Lords changed sex more evenly; a male incarnation of [[Volstrom]] regenerated to female form, then back to male, and then female again. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Side of the Angels (audio story)|The Side of the Angels]]'') {{Gomez}} ([[TV]]: ''[[The Witch's Familiar (TV story)|The Witch's Familiar]]'') and the [[Thirteenth Doctor]] ([[TV]]: ''[[Spyfall (TV story)|Spyfall]]'') referred to their regenerations to female form as an "upgrade", a term also used by River Song when discussing the former's change. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Bekdel Test (audio story)|The Bekdel Test]]'') | Regeneration could also change a Time Lord's [[Sex (trait)|biological sex]]. [[The Doctor]], [[the Master]], [[the Monk]], [[Drax]], [[Rindle]], and [[Lake (The Lady in the Lake)|Lake]] each had [[female]] incarnations, while the majority of their incarnations were male.

[[Skin colour]] could also change between regenerations. ([[TV]]: ''[[Let's Kill Hitler (TV story)|Let's Kill Hitler]]'', ''[[Hell Bent (TV story)|Hell Bent]]'', [[PROSE]]: ''[[Engines of War (novel)|Engines of War]]'', [[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Next Life (audio story)|The Next Life]]'', ''[[The Lady in the Lake (audio story)|The Lady in the Lake]]'') A change in [[gender]], size and skin colour appeared to be fairly common, the Twelfth Doctor stating that he was "one of those stuck-in-a-rut Time Lords who always [had] the same model of body." ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Twice Upon a Time (novelisation)|Twice Upon a Time]]'') In at least one [[Parallel universe (Exile)|parallel universe]] outside of [[N-Space]], the changing of biological sex in a regeneration could only be achieved by committing [[suicide]], with the Time Lords of this reality taking a much dimmer view, considering such a thing to be a criminal offence. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Exile (audio story)|Exile]]'') | [[Skin colour]] could also change between regenerations.
