What is a Vaginectomy?

Vaginectomy is the closure or "sealing" of the vagina and is done as part of masculinizing gender-affirming surgery.

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 for your comments/questions. I do not know a specific person who does the surgeries you mentioned. However, I would recommend looking for surgeons who do gender-affirming care with a track record of doing non-binary surgeries. I would start with a consultation with Dr. Heidi Wittenberg in San Francisco, and see what she would recommend. Good luck. Linda
