This might because I have more confidence in myself now and the act is now being done using the correct parts. I'm just surprised how much my needs have increase because before surgery I was meh to sex.

Can I just say that it's absolutely fascinating what modern medicine can do. Like, I never thought much about it, but I recently looked up vaginoplasty – for reasons, of course – And wow, I didn't expect it to be this... elaborate?

Idk what the right word would be. So much attention to detail on how each part can get repurposed, so to speak.

Oh trust me I am at the point where the swelling has gone down and the sutures are all most gone and its amazing how normal it looks. In a year you wouldn't even know. I will say pictures on line are usually of people early on and is a little miss leading of how everything will look in the end.

I spent so much time looking for more normal pictures of a post-op vagina. Someone in a discord I'm in shared theirs and it had me ecstatic. I doubt any of this was necessary, if I have the dysphoria I'm probably gonna do it anyways right? 🤷‍♀️ Thanks for saying this. I can't wait, I'm so excited.

If I understand it correctly, it's also positioned where even the fun button is roughly where a cis woman would have hers. Like, again... that's some serious attention to detail I believe is incredibly appreciated by everyone who undergoes this surgery, isn't it?

Well if they didn't I wouldn't have gotten then surgery.

I guess I was under the impression that there wasn't that much thought put into it, for whatever reason. But I'm both relieved and excited to learn otherwise.

[-] SamanthaLie@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Well if you have questions feel free to ask.

That's really kind of you. There's one thing, actually, I've read that you have to have proper hair removal beforehand, at least on the skin they intend to draft?

Does make sense, I guess

[-] SamanthaLie@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

It is highly recommended you get hair removal. The surgeon you get with will have a recommendation for the exact location that needs hair removed from. That being said the Crane Center I went though will tell you if there is reasons you can't they can still preform the surgery, you will just have more chance of infection and well hair inside.

Thank you, I really appreciate it

The biological formula was there all along. The parts of a vagina have direct analogs in the parts of a penis. The surgery itself is nothing short of a medical marvel. Having had it myself, there is an undeniable sense of wonder about the entire thing. It's a surgery that has been talked about and wanted since at least the time of Elgabalus, who famously wanted to have it done. The fact that we can actually do it now and that it looks and functions so similarly, is absolutely amazing.
