While the developer provides you with the option to customize your character again, the feature requires you to purchase an item called the Transformation Pill from the Jianghu Treasures Shop. You should note that the pill costs 1280 Echo Beads, which is the game's premium currency and can only be purchased by a top-up using real money.

This means that if you are an F2P player, there is no way for you to get the Echo Beads necessary to make the transaction, restricting you to the gender you chose at the start of the game.
