I got a simple metoidioplasty and scrotoplasty, no UL, no vaginectomy. The operation was two days ago so I’m still in very early recovery, but so far everything has gone well. If anyone has questions about my experience to date, feel free to ask!

      For me, the dysphoria was around not having a penis, rather than having a vagina, so I didn’t feel the need for vaginectomy. I’m nonbinary transmasc anyway, and my kind of ideal was to go for “best of both worlds” rather than cis-equivalent. (Also, I knew meta probably wouldn’t give me enough size for penetrative sex, and I didn’t want to make that otherwise more difficult.)

      So far recovery is going well! I’m not in much pain and have been able to waddle around like a penguin from basically when I woke up after the surgery.
