It’s google-able but eh. Might as well answer it so there isn’t any boo hoos on either side
If I identify as female can I get pregnant to get out of deployment?
You can certainly get out of field problems.
So it’s in policy. It may have changed since I left in 2018.
Back then, it was documented and the process was long. If you identified as a Trans soldier you did PT as your identified gender. If you are pre-transition, they will begin the process of transitioning you. Back then, there was no gender-fluidity. There is no other separation outside of PT. They even had gender-neutral PT tests that they got rid of due to gender based failures being too high to justify.
No problem
We all train the same. I don't see what one has to do with the other.

Thank you so much! I now understand the standards.
There is extensive training on this for service members. BLUF as I recall from training last year is that you abide by your gender listed in DEERS no matter what you identify by. To begin the process you have to meet with medical staff and create a treatment plan. You remain as your DEERS identified gender until that treatment plan is completed and a doc certifies it. Even though your DEERS gender may not be what you identify as, commanders have a lot of flexibility to accommodate training events and what not as needed to balance treatment plan, readiness, and comfort of the soldier. Once treatment plan is completed and certified by a doc, the DEERS gender can change and the soldier will adjust to their new gender requirements for training, standards, etc…
