Here are some basic facts:

  • method was penile inversion
  • I opted for full-depth rather than a vulvoplasty
  • surgery took 3 hours, though recovery took another hour
  • I went under general anaesthesia and had to be intubated and put on a ventilator
  • I'm currently admitted in the hospital and bed bound, discharge is scheduled for Friday
  • so far pain is between 1 and 3 for me, most of the time it's between a 0 and 1.

Ask me anything!

Strictly speaking, a vaginoplasty normally includes a vulvoplasty, but the reverse isn't always true. A vulvoplasty without a vaginoplasty means no vaginal canal, and so no depth.
