Sorry my phone corrected meh to men. I am MTF and had bottom surgery about a month ago. I am still 2 months away from actually having being able to have sex. But I have noticed my sex drive has increase and I actually think about it now where as before surgery I really didn't care for sex or think much of it.

What physical therapy are you doing?

This is the biggest aspect of being a transwomen that is just plain hard because unlike ciswomen we are not normally given our teenage years to experiment and learn. Most of use are adults that have to just go from not wearing make up to having normal make up routine. Because of this any mistake to us feels like a flag we are a trans.

If you are in the US look into the Crane Center. They not only help you figure out what you can get but have payment plans.

You are right I should ha e given more information. I went ahead and update the main text but so you have it. Surgery: Penile Inversion Vaginoplasty, Surgeon: Dr. Gerhard Mundinger. I had one virtual appointment in February of this year and in that appointment they helped me find therapist that I cab get with for letters, and place near me to get hair removal. After I got the letters with in about a month (I have been transitioning for years so I had more then enough medial history and information needed that it didn't take them long to sign the letters). I then spend the next 5 months getting hair removal. Partly though this process my surgery date was set. I then had a physical appointment with my surgeon a week before the surgery. Then I just showed up at the hospital 3 hours before the surgery and from there I just let them do what they needed and slept a lot until I was released 48 hours later. Then I spent a week pretty mush in bed. I have 3 post op appointments with my surgeon. The first one was last week and that's when I started the process of dilation. Which to be fair has been the most awkward and frustrating part so far. I have my fiancé helping me and honestly without them this whole last week and half would have been near impossible. So above all you need a care taker you can depend on and will be willing to do basically everything for you.

Amazing. Take your time picking a name I picked a name because I was kind of forced to and now so many people know me by it I really can't change it without outing myself so I'm stuck with a name I don't really like.

I got Penile Inversion Vaginoplasty. I got amazing depth with mine. (This is not always the case and if I don't keep up on dilation then I will lose it). I'm getting married to a man and in my case I have more depth then needed but plan on making sure I don't lose any

The realization that I actually got surgery. Most of my life the idea this would happen was just a dream. It was financially out of reach and I really didn't know how to abtained the letters I needed. It was not until the beginning of this year that everything just came together and I was able to figure everything out.
