I was born with a sexually development body often called intersex. My right testis failed to develop and did not drop and at ten years old surgery for a undescended testis was done. Apparently some ( 2-3) teratoma were found and removed during this surgery but were not reported to me at any time after the surgery. My parents claimed they did not know, I did not believe them when years later I found out that I had this condition. As an adult this same testis started to grow but it took me nine months of trying to get any doctor to do any basic testing and even when that was done it was done incorrectly. Finely I demanded this testis be removed and a local surgeon removed this testis though my lower abdomen while I was wide awake. When he cut me a 10cm malignant germ cell teratoma poked out of the wound. He kept injecting pain killers just ahead of where he was cutting to remove the mass from the abdomen and scrotum. He used surgical mesh and tape to put me back together but this all ripped out two days after surgery. A real mess. I needed seven months of chemo and additional surgery at the Mayo Clinic for one other 17.5 cm teratoma in my upper abdomen. My life was hell for years after, It was found that this particular testis was in fact a fetal gonad, teratoma and my cancer was related to ovarian cancer. My remaining testis Is normal but never matured to normal adult size. I did marry but clearly I did not sexually mature as most male but we managed to make our marriage work for us. I have been treated for gender dysphoria but wouldn't call myself transgender in the classic sense of the word. I have also given a great deal of thought of transitioning to female as I have never seen myself as purely male at any time in my life. Between surgery, cancer and chemo there isn't much male in me any more. The sad truth is my cancer took the form of ovarian cancer thus taking estrogen hormones could cause the cancer to return. Have you ever encountered someone with the situation Ive been in. ??

This is such an issue for me! I am in tears 😭

(PHALLUS PRESERVING VAGINOPLASTY SURGERY) Can a scrotum provide enough material for a canal and an outward appearing vagina?

Thank you for this very clear information.

What happens if trump wins for 2024 elections what are we gonna do for phalloplasty surgeries in 2025 im scared it wont happen

* That's how I started in 1979. I tried squirting my mother's injection Estrogen underneath my tongue. Dunno if anything happened. Next, my girl friend offered her Birth Control pills to me for a few months. The pills worked wonders. I finally started prescription Estrogen about September 1979. I began studying phyto-Estrogen in 1981. That also works for me. *

Thank you for the explanation it’ll probably be a year or 2 before I can’t take any but I do think I want this now after learning all of this

Thanks for putting in a word for an all-gender-affirming vote, Dr. Gromko!

Can you speak about the surgery where they preserve the scrotum as well as the penis?

thank you so much for your content

Thank you for info 👍👍. I have subbed 👍🏳️‍🌈

Thanks for info 👍👍

Thank you for info 👍👍

I noticed your channel barely had any comments, and I genuinely just want to thank you for making these informative videos, I was just having this problem and was googling around, when I found your channel, totally one I will save and hope to see more in the future! ❤

Do you know of any doctors that provide vestibuldectomy for provoked vulvar vestibulitis in combination with a vaginectomy for gender affirming surgery? Can I get both surgeries done at the same time by the same surgeon? I prefer a woman surgeon due to trauma. That's a combo surgery I hope to get for myself. I don't want a phallus. Just want to not be in pain and be comfortable in my non-binary body which I am not sexually active in and expect to never be active as I am an asexual human trafficking survivor who was born into slavery and trafficked for 35 years. I am safe now and 41 years old. I'm fine with getting a hysterectomy first, as I have a uterine septum and I had this really painful and active fibroid that might have gone away with my use of birth control pills to control the excessive bleeding. Anyway, I am asexual and I always have been and will be forever. I like it. I like my celibate life. So can you please refer me to a surgeon who can do both a vaginectomy and a vestibuldectomy on the same day for me, and sew up the hole so I just have skin there, without neuroproliferation created by trauma that hurts when provoked? I have goals to become a horseback rider and be able to put my pelvis into a rock climbing harness so I can enjoy mountain climbing, high ropes and zip lines, which I cannot currently do because of my extremely annoying vulvar vestibulitis. It's way too painful.

Thank you

Hiya linda, valentina here i saw the new web site, congrats on your new remote, practice.

Thank you for this information 🙏

I had gender nullification surgery 5 years ago and I am super happy with the result.

You've done so much for our community for so many years! Thank you for taking such good care of us. 💜

Crystal clear! Thanks for the info.

The more I learn about this the less afraid I am about the process

I just attended a Seattle TDOR event put on by a trans and gender-nonconforming choral group called STANCE. In addition to music, the event featured poetry and stories told by choir members. Of course, they had the reading of the names - always so tragic. It was wonderful to see performers of all gender identities performing with the voices most comfortable for them. LG

Very important information.

I trust Dr Gromko regarding skincare! Thanks for the advice/reminders!

What a useful video for any of us who might find ourselves struggling - during the holidays or any time. It’s like a menu: pick an activity from each category and you’re on your way to surviving.

Pain relief is very important during pre surgery hair removal. The genital area is very sensitive.

Thank you for this detailed information. It’s been so beneficial for not only patient teaching, but educating my colleagues too!

NB: At 1:42 Dr Gromko mistakenly says “0.4 grams per kilogram” (the guideline per pound) instead of 0.8 grams per kilogram.

I support everyone who wanted to become a girl :>

You are absolutely right!

A real woman speaking truth.

This video was simple, yet informative. Exactly what I was looking for, as I’m getting ready to receive the HPV vaccine. Thank you for educational content like this.

Dr. linda you are awesome!

How incredibly compassionate of you to post this video, Dr Gromko!

This is evil and will lead you to hell... one which you wont be able to escape. I would suggest you read romans

Great information!
