To every transgender person who dared to read the comments. You are loved and you are accepted. Don't let what other people say drag you down or hurt you. Just laugh and go about your day. God made you extra special. So if someone tries to use their personal views of religion on you, remember that God made all of you. Not just your body.
To all those people filled with hate, you don't really know what it's like to be a transgender unless you are one, that's a very good presentation by the way, thanks
To those like you who so happily categorize anyone who might disagree with you as "transphobic" or "filled with hate" I say the fear and hate live within you because of the one person you can't disagree with, and must be true to at all costs, even sanity: yourself. If you were truly convinced yourself, you truly wouldn't give a shit either way. Because you still fight within yourself over the truth which is above emotionality and based in scientific fact, you contend to the last with this issue. Fall off the fence, on either side. And stay there. Live in truth or die in shame.
Dr. Gladys Y. Ng MD, MPH & UCLA... Thank you very much!!! This video is SO cool, and SO appreciated!!! I AM SO EXCITED FOR MY SURGERY!~ I CANT WAIT TO FEEL LIKE MYSELF!!!
This will be a life changing time of my life and I'm naturally scared as anyone would be of any surgery but I know that the results will be more than worth it for being my authentic self. This is a process and I need to remember just to take things one day at a time. I only just began hormones a week ago, after all!
ThunderAppeal lol don’t act like you are any more rational than the bible thumper. I know you don’t think so, but you are actually arguing from your feelings, not facts. Gender dysphoria is a neurological condition, it’s not something you can just “get over.” Also she said nothing about it being state funded.
I am an electrologist and have worked on people who had numerous prior laser treatments. Doctors are generally ignorant of what happens to hair when laser is used. Laser may not destroy the follicle permanently. Laser may make the hair much more difficult to have a lubricated hair follicle. Laser can make electrolysis much more difficult.
@ www.self.com/story/the-pros-cons-of-laser-hair-re - "While laser hair removal doesn’t get rid of hair forever (only electrolysis is FDA-approved for permanent hair removal), it does drastically reduce hair growth-to the point that you can stop shaving altogether."
Julie Gurley uh you can say that again. Honey I did like a few months of electro and I’m African American and honey when I tell you I’m trying to get a revision smh 🤦🏽♀️
@ no what she says is true... electrolysis is the only true permanent way to remove hair .. just takes longer and costs more over all. but worth it .. 100 hrs on a face min
thanks for the information.A very informative video for health professional who provide service for patients who have undergone transition related surgery.
Thank you Gladys I live in Australia but your video was very informative. I hope to have reassignment surgery next year. So again many many thanks. Carrie
Thank u sooo much for alll this important information im planing on geting my top surgery and my srs. Surgery and this is great to know you explain it's so good I feel like a doctor that knows everything now im ready😘🤗🤗❤
@Cray Fishe That's true too because my brother/sister has not been the same since he/she had his/her gender confirmation surgery and I know that he/she regrets having done because he/she has so far been in and out of the psych ward like 10 times this year since he/she had this awful surgery last year 2018 .
@@toyamosley1955 only true sorry to hear for your sibling ... it takes a lot of loving support to get through this negativity .. Love and help her its the best you can do...
Thank you for the wonderful information, I'm get my surgery the 6th of next year, but don't be so nervous girl! I'm always looking for good information to share for those whom want or need it and you've got plenty, thanks.
Please please please tell me how it turns out, i am very interested in having this surgery but am also very nervous that the results wont be as good as i hope, please tell me about your results that would be very helpful thank you 💕💕 and good luck on your surgery girl!!
Thank you Doctor there so much learn from your presentation. I always wanted this surgery but I have anxiety in the hospital itself so I really think I can not handle the operation ☹
good video, although its worth pointing out, if you stop dilating after youve fully recovered, the vaginal canal is not going to seal shut. it might close to a minimum size and penitrative might not be feasible but can always restart the process if you ever want to have penitrative sex again. (this comes from several transwomen ive spoken too who have had the procedure. you can also find many testimonials online. ) just remember that everyone is different and YMMV (your mileage may vary)
think aboit it like this. you cant just dive into anally penetrating sex, you have to dialate, essentially. especially for those who enjoy larger objects
@@Isaaa-tr5rw yeah something like that, idk the specifics, i just know what ive learned from people who have actually had the surgery. again YMMV so just be cautious when doing anything (assuming you, or whoever reading this is having the surgery )
@@Mekelaina I got this information from my surgeon (Dr.Schaff in Munich Germany).. thats what he observed in most of his patients (over 20 years of performing this surgery and thousands of patients)
@@neoutopiamessiah3the patient would not of gotten to the stage of having surgery if their psychological health and status was not considers before hand. as this is only going over the surgery its self physical health is the higher off the two on the priority list
@@neoutopiamessiah3 sorry, cost is not something i really associate with health care as im from the uk. so that may be the way it works in usa but over here having worked with doctors for the past 5 years in a clinical setting i can say for sure it is not how its done over here. we try and give all patients the best care we can
@@SDlona the problem is how you define "the best care" this is the most common mistake in the world, the belief that your perception of something is perfectly accurate and unquestionable. When you say you provide the best care possible you are also using the unscientific and unethical assumption that the best care is to mutilate a persons genitals and sterilize them for life because that person is insane and thus easily taken advantage of, and thus that doctor is abusing their power as a doctor to make a decision that makes the nazis look humane. You see, the best possible care is just emotional drivel used to manipulate people into agreement because you have no ability to argue with logic and reason.
Grateful for the time this surgen took to explain the proccess "freely" were im from in the uk i cant even get an explanation on how to live off £300 per month while being unfit for work due to ill health and why i have to live in a dangerous,serious health hazzard..slum landlord propperty being a full uk citizen
What comes to Me after watching two people go through the process is how important it is to have loving people around for emotional care. Sure, there is therapy but I don't think it can ever supplant the love of family or closest of friends to walk with.
@@doot4844 It really is if you think about it. They have been practicing on people since the 80's really. I've seen some post op women and its a huge toss up. Some look ok and I'd say a majority look like an axe wound. None were passable though all looked suspicious.
Good presentation! I do want to note that the requirements are absolutely constructed as barriers though. It's kind of silly to say "a requirement isn't a barrier." WPATH and HBIGDA codified the explicitly gatekeeping practices of the 1960's and 1970's. While they have liberalized, there are still barriers trans people have to face that cis people don't. If you want insurance, doubly so as their standards are stuck in 1970 because it means less people can achieve them so they have to pay less.
I wonder if I can put a zip tie around my saft get close to the er maybe cut off or pay some one can I live Tru it had my balls remove after testticalaur torstion it don't work I hate it
Please talk to intersex/DSD patients who have undergone many genital surgeries before undergoing this surgery! We have a lot of lived experience and wisdom to share.
This was very informative. I learned a lot, despite that that shit crazy though lol I am eager to get this procedure but you have to play the patience role. I only recently started my HRT going to two weeks and I had already made up my mind I have no need of my testicles and penis. I hate to have to "tuck" it in. I have no desire for children anymore (im 30 and already have one). I should have started HRT many years ago but it was difficult to come out. I couldn't wait anymore. Knowing all of this back then I could have been more used to the transition. When I said that shit crazy its because there's a lot of healing and recovery and possible complications that can occur but also the fact that it shows the requirements to being able to get the procedure done. Top surgery such as breast implant isn't this crazy but I guess it's because the surgery is irreversible. I wish there was more studies being done to further advance this procedure but I'll wait 3 years before I get this done.
You can do it! I have your back! I completely understand your dysphoria, as I have dealt with mine since I was 3 years of age, and I know how horrible it feels, especially when you have to tuck constantly just to feel okay, and not be judged by strangers with wondering eyes.
In all of your inquiry, what have you found for reasoning for not removing the male prostate during GRS/SRS ? ... And what function, if any (?), does it serve for a Transgender Woman to retain that part of male anatomy ? Thank you for your most informative video ! - Farley A.
@@wyldcardsam Thank you, though I would think, given the troublesome nature of the male prostate for most, if not all, after a certain age, that removal might be advisable (?). Does it (Prostate) serve any function or purpose for a someone transitioning to female from male ? - Farley A.
@@farleyandrews7269 it works as out g spot. Also removing it can cause incontinence. Though the use of estrogen makes us less likely to deal with prostate cancer
It would be more effective to have better training for therapists, so people know they actually have dysphoria, and not something like DID, so we can make sure that no one (or atleast way less people) gets a surgery they will regret.
@@bostonvontugeln7325 surgery already takes over a year and months of prep to prepare for. As a result, the number of people who regret it is a negligible 0.27% and only exists due to the rate of surgical mishap. There are not confirmed cases of people regretting the surgery with the exception of incredibly uncommon anecdotes that can not be confirmed to be accurate. So this would be defending a population of people that doesn't actually exist at the expense of everybody else involved.
What of informed personal individual responsibility? 50 years ago tattoos were the permanent taboo of choice, now it's G.R.S??? There are already too many professionals to appease before even the HRT phase of transistioning. I think that mature adults seeking this treatment should have less hoops to hop thru. 25yrs old and under need the in place protocols, it is afterall an obvious permanent procedure.
Thank you. This is very well presented. I appreciate the very sensitive and well detailed complete explanation. I definitely need this. The question is just where and how I get support to make it come to fruition. Lorrissae is my name. She her
Why did I read the comments... 🤬 ok now I'm throwing my 2 cents! If you are transitioning or have transitioned, that is what you want, GOOD FOR YOU! Be your truest self! Love yourself for who you are! 1. It does NOT matter the "cause" of someone to be transgender! If that is what they want, so be it! Insurance companies are considering it a necessary surgery! (Providing that circumstances are met) 2. If you are someone who is bashing ANYONE, just be careful of your hate, anger, frustration or dislike... You never know who or when it may be someone you love! 3. I do not give a flying F-bomb your belief system, gender, sexuality, creed, ethnicity, nationality, or any other background I forgot to mention... your body = your canvas : not yours = no say! 4. What does it really matter? Education of what they do and go through might shed some light into your dark mindspace? I do not think very many people have enough RESPECT for those beautiful people (go ahead and talk, if it is negative you are just proving yourself insecure about it! ) 5. I am not trans, so if you are about to hate on me, question yourself! Why? what make someone else so upsetting to you? 6. They have feelings too, just like me, just like you! In my mind you have a few choices: accept and enjoy the person as they are, coexist peacefully, or shut up mind your own business and stay the heck out of their life! 7. If you are against it, why are you even here? Troll? Stroke you ego? Compensate for something you lack? perhaps searching for yourself, and scared? 8. If you are about to pounce, saying you are not a "hater" or are not against transgender, there is no reason you should be offended! you really have nothing to say? 9. Acceptance is something everyone should learn, even embrace! I know several people that felt bad enough about the way people treated them, they are no longer alive! If you actually are willing to accept that an opinion is worth more that a life... you REALLY need to rethink things!!! I am looking stuff up to educate myself as I didn't know what was involved, it is a huge thing (I'm supportive of living, the best life you can, as long as it does not harm others!) 10. If you are about to say something about how it hurts the family... well I know several families that have trashed a family member for little things, petty differences of opinion, so you got no dice here either! IF YOU TRULY LOVE SOMEONE you should respect and accept them no matter how different they are! Post rant: I truly feel sorry for those out there that can't wrap their mind around accepting different! Sad, sorry, angry, lonely people... I know some personally, and they just destroy their lives, bit by bit, one relationship at a time and end up living alone and miserable in their older years! Sadly some end up with a funeral that looks more like a party...(I was told of one, nobody attended, they went to the bar instead, I believe I was also told the significant other bought first round!) Be kind, and respectful... you do not have to understand or agree... but why be negative? It just brings more negativity into your life! Focus on positive, and you will find more positive!
Dr Ng, thank you for your presentation. A question - noting that there are so many questions around the suitability of BMI in assessing a persons actual size, just how set in stone is this as a measure of suitability for surgery. Now I am obese, I have no misconceptions of this, but if I am aware of the risks and am making an informed consent to GRS, should I not be able to undergo surgery? I would appreciate your thoughts on this please. This also has relevance for a friend of mine who was recently removed from a waiting list for surgery where BMI was the stated reason. Her reading was 0.4 over the upper guideline of 35 and only because she received a breast reconstruction as part of her overall SRS programme.
Mostly similar to practices here in the Netherlands :) but i didn't have to stop taking HRT till surgery day and had no negative effects because of it (only stopped taking blocker the day before surgery because i wouldn't have balls after anyway). Perhaps that was experimental?
yes, you were experimented on - it has been a few years and it is still impossible to change your sex. Sterilization and mutilating experiments are still all science can offer. I hope someone told you that truth before you volunteered. Good luck.
So I have a question for you education in the planning for your surgeries or anything else in this manner do y'all disintech belly buttons do y'all work it's pressure flow back out to unalign it from whatever it's aligned with to see if that's the problem first before they go into the surgery
I have always wondered about something that I have never been able to bring myself to ask . The Last thing I want to do is hurt a person in the transsexual society . Life is difficult enough without stray people being mean , and it is easy to accidentally offend when one doesn’t know much about people whose life experience differs greatly from ones own . My question is this ..... I have perceived that the body movements , facial expressions, and manner of speaking in transgender women frequently resembles those of gay men . Why is that ? Is it a matter of not yet fully fitting the new external truth to the long existing internal truth ? Is it that they are comfortable as they are , and don’t care to “pass” . I realize that to radically change ones manner of communicating with others in order to conform to society’s views is probably close to impossible and really not worth the hard work . Don’t bother to answer if you see my comment as coming from ‘just another twit’ .I ask because I am genuinely interested and I believe the more we know of the lives of people experiencing life in a way unfamiliar to us , the better society can embrace all people .I mean open minded decent people, of course .Bigotry , bullying and kindness is unfortunately rampant in this world . Thank you for an interesting and informative video .
It's usually because some of us aren't 100% keen on having to conform to patriarchal standards of 'femininity'. As a trans woman myself, you wouldn't see me dead in a dress outside of very special occasions or painting my nails. I'm a jeans/anime t-shirt kinda person, I just have tiddy.
It's a good question and you asked it kindly. I can't exactly answer it, but just like Nebula said, I'm not like that. I'm just an average jeans/t-shirt kind of country gal. I don't come across like the stereotype gay male, but rather like the flower gardener lady next door. I think there's too much stereotyping of both gender and sexuality and it makes it easier to miss the many of us that don't fit the stereotype. We all pass by trans and gay people in our daily life and not even know it. With that said, I do meet trans women who behave as you describe. I can't speak for them, but I just assume they're being their natural self. To each her own. Personally, I behave like the "average" woman.... whatever that is (hint: there isn't). I'm sorry I can't answer your question.
Unfortunately, about the only places that Transpeople wont get harrassed or attacked in public are Gay clubs. Even then some of the Gays and Lesbians are Transphobes as well. however, some Transpeople adopt gay mannerisms unconciously. I'm lesbian myself so I dont do anything that men do... except for smacking Transphobes in the head with a bar stool.
Also, it’s good to keep in mind that many trans women were not included in the groups and societal situations where girls and young ladies learn the mannerisms common to their culture. All of those mannerisms are learned behaviors, starting incredibly early in life. That’s a lot of knowledge to have to learn in a relatively and comparatively short period of time, and most of it isn’t verbal or structured.
Im just a female. Curious. This just popped up. The body gets medical attention in everyway. I do not think haters really have the right to be hateful. To each his own on making themselves happy. What a person does in the privacy of their home ,bedroom is no ones buisnes . as long as no ones hurting other s Live and let live. Goodluck and stay safe to everyone going through any medical issue. By
that would be okay - but these nutjobs (not all, but too many) are experimenting on young kids and then you have the sheep nodding along, thinking its adults in their own rooms, normalizing sex lobotomies for kids. There are no female only spaces anymore - so thanks for that :( the kids are next - hope you haven't been permanently bullied into silence.

@@vera_seppuku I have a real vagina and the real thing is connected from the inside so I can't imagine how it would feel with just an exterior piece to the puzzle.
NathanLolzTer - You have your whole life ahead of you. Don’t fall for the fashion of the day. It’ll pass as all fashion does. Give your self time to think deeply and clearly about who you are a human being.
You need to see a therapist especially one with experience talking to people with gender issues. If you are experiencing severe depression and anxiety over your gender, you will need to talk to your parents at some point so you can get some help. This doesn't necessarily mean you need to transition, there is nothing wrong with taking your time and figuring things out for yourself. Perhaps experiment with clothing, hairstyle, etc.....baby steps. Either way understand that you are not alone....lots of people have been where you are right now.
Don’t listen to people online who say you aren’t (or are) trans. It’s something deeply personal and different for everyone. Maybe try to find videos about gender dysphoria or look up articles and topics about people who are pre-transition I would try to talk to a therapist. Depending on how your parents feel about trans issues, it might be better to not say anything. Puberty fucking sucks, but it’s not the end of the world (even if it might feel like it) Many trans people don’t start transitioning until they’re well into adulthood, and hormones can still change your bone structure well into your mid twenties. The most important advice I’ll give you is be true to yourself. Don’t let anyone else tell you who you are. Stay strong
@mommymode1985 The lobotomy was done to mentally ill patients. Between 1940 and 1950 about 20,000 were done, in the US (don't hold me to that...its what I think wiki had on it). The big difference is this was usually done without the consent of the patient as they were institutionalized. Some for something as slight as depression. SRS/GCS is a voluntary procedure that alters a persons body instead of their mind. If you have read about the lobotomy....you can see the results of doing surgery on someones brain to alter behavior such as depression....it is barbaric, we can agree on that. However, a lobotomy compares to GCS/SRS about the same as people comparing gender dysphoria to schizophrenia...you know...no real similarity other than a twisted attempt by right wing christian's to get their panties in a wad over someone transitioning....because oh my gosh it is a "sin" and "think of the children"....and what ever other BS you can throw out there like bathroom safety and erasure of women and lesbians.....you know bullshit. Transition is not right for everyone but for most transgender people it is life saving. Again from my point earlier....this is not your body and not your life. You have no business meddling with the transgender community when we already have actual medical professionals helping us make the most of a difficult situation. When someone is having an issue, they need to be pointed toward medical/psychiatric professionals. Not amateur biologist dishing out X's and Y's from 6th grade biology class.
The Great Wall of Vagina. Clever. I will be cringing for days after watching this video. One has to be very brave to go through such a procedure. It seems like so many things could go wrong.
There's generally two (three) bottom surgeries for trans guys, metidioplasty and phalloplasty (and hysterectomy) You can't go right out and do anything lie this, you need doctor's notes saying you have valid likelihood you wont regret this.
Oatmeal here is spot on. Look those options up and decide for yourself what suits you. Generally metoidioplasty has the least complications and will result in a functional and sensitive penis. A small penis, but a fully working one. The Phallo is more risky but will result in a decent size. Hysterectomy is generally safe enough. All up to you.
@@fabrizio483 you're right in the sense that one's inate identity is immutable. If performed on you this surgery would probably indeed be 'cosmetic mutilation' but for somebody suffering a severe case of gender dysphoria this would on a similar level probably best described as 'removing a third malformed arm'. The patient receiving it would feel a great sense of relief afterwards (and quite some pain for a while).
@@fabrizio483 think is... They already tried. Transgender medicine is quite old already with notable progress in the 1930s. They tried shrinks, electro shocks and meds. Or just plainly locking trans people up in insanity wards. What did work was actually letting said patients do what they wanted done. Surgeries like these where once even far more invasive. They once actually transplanted reproductive systems. Synthetic hormones? They used animal hormones or even put ovaries in trans women and the likes. Trans people and treatment appeared uncommon apart from some cases such as 1950s Christine jorgenson. Haha the terrible director Ed Wood was supposed to film her story but instead made Glen or Glenda.
Using a dilator must maintain dept of vaginal canal,there's no yet seen procedure for testicle to become ovary but the skin of testicle & penis became vaginal canal,not yet became uterus
Stand Up its not even about that This surgery i have done it years ago but in the end i figured out its just an empty hole guys put their sperm in and LEAVE .. this is horrible 💔
What if you require surgery because you have a lot of genital dysphoria but you aren't able to take hormones or confident enough to present and live in actualised woman role publicly? That's a hard barrier to treatment for many people.
David Willis are u serious? U realize the high percentage of ppl that get this surgery still commit suicide or end up regretting this later on in life? I know there is ppl who really prefer to be a woman for the rest of their life but a HUGE amount of ppl that do this just have a fetish and end up in serious regret and depression. “Trans” suicide is really high regardless and I’d be willing to bet the ones who commit suicide over having a cock would be the same ones who would do it post removal
@@隠れた花 all studies I've found point to less than 5% of people who transition detransitioning... HOWEVER regret is not the only reason for detransition. I have a friend who detransitioned because of her hostile family and is now re-transitioning, after moving away.
@Lrf82 the risk of removing it is higher than the risk of leaving it in place. Beyond that, it’s like others have pointed out: it in an erogenous zone equivalent to the g-spot in cis women.
I wish all the surgery fees were funded paid for for free you'd have more people living happier lives and being More able to be a valid community member just a thought
It's really late to ask, but I take estradiol via injection instead of pill because it removes the risk of clots; does that mean I wouldn't have to stop?

I had heard that there would be a lot of pain so I was surprised that there wasn't. I suppose that we are all different when it comes to pain. My VP was a Failure, the surgeon said it was me but he was at the end of his career and needed to feel that he had 'done his best'. In France doctors are embarassed to do this sort of work although they are not embarrassed to get paid for it ! I then had a Colovaginoplasty by another surgeon who operated on the thousands of Biological women born WITHOUT a vagina !! yes there are many ! Unfortunately they nicked a blood vessel and I had internal bleeding so I had to go back into surgery for another 4 hours ( after an initial 6 ) to find the cause. Then the anaesthesist messed me up and convulsions set in destroying the work. Several attemps were made to repair me. Results being a closed sphinter situation entrance to my vagina that no one has been able to correct. I have regularly to go Under GA to have it prised open and cleaned and checked for problems. It goes to say that this ruined any hope of a Relationship and ended up shutting me down. I was Simply the small % of unsuccesful ones. On the other hand I looked great from day one and was even Lucky enough not t otake hormones! Doctors are now telling me to have the whole thing amputated and for the moment I cannot bring myself to do it despite it being non functional. That is life ! Win some lose some, or in this case lose some then lose some more!
incredible story... it seems to me that you need a lot of money in order to get the best possible outcome with the least risk. Even though i heard it is free here in Canada, i heard they sent you to have it done in Russia where it is less expensive and where they give you the worst 'way' of doing that surgery. If you don't have your own money and a lot of it, i don't think it is worth it then...
@@jessikapiche6097 The problem is that I didn't pay for anything, it was all on the free health system here in France. Before this I did find a surgeon in Brussels and had planned for him to do it and pay for it. This surgeon had done my neck and he was someone nice that I trusted. When I went to the psychiatrist to obtain an assessement for the surgeon he refused to give it to me and said that 'finally' I was a 'good canditate' for surgery in France. What he meant was that they wanted to focus on operating those they thought 'passed' well so as not to attract negatif attention from the board of directors. Bascially no 'truck drivers' or TG too old. I had no choice but to accept or go through another 2 years of evaluation for a assessment for the Belgium surgeon. It was a no win. I achieved a lot through surgery, my true Identity recognised and freedom to live my life as me and not as a version of me. I lost too but that is life.
@@TheFiown You are a very mature person and i salute your courage to have go through all this and be able to see the positive it STILL was for you. I want to add something that i find disturbing though. Those 'Truck drivers and TG too old...'... All of this is the 'best' our system can do i guess...so in the end we have to accept that. But i have a thought for all those poor souls who can't even live in their appropriate gender because their body don't fit (or their age) the 'system'... it is a nightmare. I am sorry you had to go through so much to feel 'yourself'... it is no wonder so many people suicide with this problem...there is simply no 'easy way' to go through this...
@@jessikapiche6097 You have to put things into context. I had my operation back in 1995 and there was no internet, no support groups. My only aid was a Pastor who took care of many minorities. He was taken into custody for questioning over some shady minority group and the police killed him during questioning and threw his body into a river. It sound like Something from a movie but these things happen. It was a big scandal back then. So I lost my support. Before I set out to go through the transition my little sister was killed then my father died and my mother got cancer so each time I put 'me' on hold and dealt with family. I awoke one day to realise that time was flying and I was almsot 38 so I just went for it. Today there is a lot of help on RUclips, sometimes for worse than better but Trans people are not alone. In the 90's, here in France Trans people were seen as mentally ill, or prostitutes. One doctor actually asked me where I was going to be 'working' for clients ! In life you have to take away the good and the positive and leave the rest if not the weight of it will drag you down. I Don't regret waiting so long as I took care of my family. I am now alone but there is much to be happy about and I must focus on that. Every day I wake up I say 'thank you'. Take care .
If you get a vaginoplasty, Its average cost ranges from ehh roughly 4,000-12,000 dollars! But that all depends on the vaginal correction that will need to be done, and if anything goes wrong! I’ve heard that in a low amount of cases trans people post op can have something go wrong like a hematoma or something blood related! so roughly the cost will be between 4-12k!
You keep using the term 'vaginal canal', but the vaginal canal is an organ in it's own right and cannot be 'made' by inverting the penis, etc. Are you making sure your patients know that they're not getting an *actual* vaginal canal with this surgery? If not, wouldn't that interfere with their ability to make an informed decision/give informed consent? Same goes for the clitoris and any other female organ you claim to be able to 'make' during this procedure.
I believe trans women would be well aware of that. Though they might wish that didn't have to be the cases. However, the surgery does aliviate disphoria.
Extremely uneducated comment! If you have any kind of education into the human body that is known as medical education, you would know that there are women born without vaginal canals! One has to be surgically created! Guess in your eyes it’s not a real vaginal canal then!
All 7 trans mtf women that I know who have had this surgery either regret this surgery, feel lied to, feel that they have mutilated their body’s, feel that the dilating needed to keep the canal open is unrealistic (especially teenagers). It usually takes these people around one year to realize what they have done to their bodies. The real problem is that these trans people want to feel like real women. This surgery doesn’t make them a real woman and the only way to really help these people is to help them love themselves for who they are, not by mutilation, sterilization and castrations.
from the post surgery meetings, the research shows that 0.27% of people regret the surgery. That’s so rare you know that many people! it’s unbelievable! It defies the logic and studies! Stop saying things like this
@@sevenoncr4ck post surgery meetings? So straight after surgery? 2 years later? I’d like to know because if you’re in the industry, you’re going to make the statistics look good for more customers. I bet these statistics come from asking people straight after surgery if they are happy or if they have any regrets.
no, actually they have a year before their last post op meeting. Also, some people regretting it doesn’t mean it should be inaccessible for people who truly need it. Every 49 seconds, a lgbt person under the age of 25 attempts suicide. These are the people who don’t have support, and can’t transition. (Or “mutilate” themselves. I really hate that term, as it brings the light away from mutilation in many west Asian countries, done in a basement causing irreparable harm that they didn’t want)@@WatermelonPlayzzRoblox-lol
Isn’t it easier and more effective to treat the underlying dysphoria with SSRI’s? Cheaper too. But that would be too easy and wouldn’t allow doctors to get rich off people with this condition. The Hippocratic oath mandates, “Do no harm.” You take perfectly functioning organs and surgically remove and/or alter them irreversibly.
SSRIs have a negligible effect on gender dysphoria. The only "cure" to dysphoria is to transition and HRT and GRS have both proven times and times again to decrease dysphoria

It's a fair question, but that's the idea of screenings, not to mention you've got to be bloody serious to undergo this operation and all the accompanying problems for years to come. Not to mention the risks.
Gave me a real appreciations for the commitment and courage for trans women to transition fully. Im of the opinion now that a trans girl is more woman than woman. Rest assured ladys and asoiring ladies that this herro bloke wiukd havd no issue having a neaningfull rekatiinship with you. And no i dont fetishise oeople that to me is insulting and cruel.
I hope in 100 years people look back and see how transphobic people like you are, a lobotomy has negative effects, this surgery has none. In fact it can save people’s lives
@@-M1LK0- Well this surgery can cause complications with prostate screening so CLEEEAAARRLLY it is the same as a lobotomy if not worse. Joking obviously.
Even whoever hermaphrodite or person with two genders may also udergo sex change operation,he or she has period but may also become pregnant & give birth
Are the patients told that its a life long medical situation, the body tries to close up the hole, the body knows its not right and tries to heal the hole on its own, totally ridiculous!
Can i make the point here that although the person is getting the gender reassignment surgery so that they feel happy in the body that they are happy with genetically a man born a male is still a male based on chromosomes. That doesn’t not change after surgery. A Male who undergoes this surgery is undergoing it for plastic surgery reasons only. And a female who undergoes female to make gender reassignment is a female underlying regardless of their forward facing gender. You see with all this being the norm now children at school have this idea that male to female means that the person underneath is a female going forward with reproductive organs and womb etc........ we know this is not true but our children are being brought up on this falsehood. A female likewise who transitions to a male will never ever be able to procreate with another female ie fertilise the egg with a sperm. We know this because a female who transitioned to a male and then stopped taking testosterone so she could have a baby. She wanted to be name as the father. The courts rightly threw this out because the underlying dna chromosomes etc dictate that the person is genetically female even though the person presents as male. Now i dont care what people do with their bodies or how they live their lives. But i do understand why genetic born females have taken exception in this country particularly where on women’s agendas, health, birth, politics, etc..... a male by birth and surgical altered to look as a female to the world outside. We are seeing children who have had puberty blockers having issues with gender reassignment because the surgery that is demonstrated here doesnt work because it is dependent on the size of the penis and the the way that penis is inverted to create a fake vagina. You cant do that with a boy who has not gone through puberty because there is no length. Jazz had experimental surgery done on her and it nearly killed her. Now dont shout me down. Yes things have changed but the conversation in the background is still the same because when you are born it has male or female on the birth certificate. I know that there are some changes in the off with regards to children will have at their 16th birthday their coming out e male, female, trans, gay etc......... But people need to understand that their children do not understand that a sex change does not make that person genetically the gender that they want to be. A trans woman cannot produce eggs to be fertilised. Medicine is not that far advanced.
I dare him to get his chromosomes checked. I’ll be over here, laughing my ass off, when he finds out that he’s probably not the XY he thinks he is. (Hint for those who only know “basic biology”: Chromosomes vary a lot in humanity, with a lot more women having a Y chromosome than your basic biology taught you. A lot of dudes have weird ass chromosomes too. And it’s not in any way abnormal.)
The biggest issue is this abnormality is pushed to our kids heads as normality.... Wait for 10 years and we will see a huge demand of this procedures but wait another 10 years and see how most operated will scream that it was the biggest mistake of their life....
It is already happening with lots of FTM girls that are going off the hormones to make them masculine. They say they were confused, and actually just a lesbian in many cases. There are so many vids on here where they share their stories. It is heart breaking.
SRS was first performed in the 1930s, so a bit more than 30 years. But the point stands. This procedure isn’t new. Trans people have existed for as long as humanity has. When I was growing up, my parents tried to beat it out of me. There was no positive discussions about it. Those like me learned to internalize societies vocal hatred of us. I also learned to hide who I was and my parents then wondered why I was depressed, angry and suicidal. Fast forward to now, where a part from dealing with a vocal minority of bigots, my life is far better than it ever was before.
Wait to get educated before spreading misinformation! No one is doing the crap you claim! They do not preform surgery on kids like you sick individuals think! They might use a puberty blocker & have a kid at the start or puberty age live as the opposite gender & have them seeing professional help to see if this is who they really are before starting HRT! The surgery is not performed until they hit adulthood if surgery is what they need!
To every transgender person who dared to read the comments.
You are loved and you are accepted. Don't let what other people say drag you down or hurt you. Just laugh and go about your day. God made you extra special. So if someone tries to use their personal views of religion on you, remember that God made all of you. Not just your body.

You have presented a very knowledgeable and informative approach to this surgery. Thank you so very much
Thank you for this video! Great resource for PCPs to be able to counsel their patients a little bit more if they’re considering a consultation!
To all those people filled with hate, you don't really know what it's like to be a transgender unless you are one, that's a very good presentation by the way, thanks
To those like you who so happily categorize anyone who might disagree with you as "transphobic" or "filled with hate" I say the fear and hate live within you because of the one person you can't disagree with, and must be true to at all costs, even sanity: yourself. If you were truly convinced yourself, you truly wouldn't give a shit either way. Because you still fight within yourself over the truth which is above emotionality and based in scientific fact, you contend to the last with this issue. Fall off the fence, on either side.
And stay there. Live in truth or die in shame.

I AM SO EXCITED FOR MY SURGERY!~ I CANT WAIT TO FEEL LIKE MYSELF!!!
I wish you all the best for the procedure and I'm excited for you ^-^
This will be a life changing time of my life and I'm naturally scared as anyone would be of any surgery but I know that the results will be more than worth it for being my authentic self. This is a process and I need to remember just to take things one day at a time. I only just began hormones a week ago, after all!
ThunderAppeal lol don’t act like you are any more rational than the bible thumper. I know you don’t think so, but you are actually arguing from your feelings, not facts. Gender dysphoria is a neurological condition, it’s not something you can just “get over.” Also she said nothing about it being state funded.
Wendy and your point is? To be rude, prejudiced and judgmental i see?
How was the transition, Rebecca ? Did you regret removing your D or not yet ?
It’s a psychiatric condition, get your facts straight.
I am an electrologist and have worked on people who had numerous prior laser treatments. Doctors are generally ignorant of what happens to hair when laser is used. Laser may not destroy the follicle permanently. Laser may make the hair much more difficult to have a lubricated hair follicle. Laser can make electrolysis much more difficult.
Thank you for this information.
Hello dear i need your help
@ www.self.com/story/the-pros-cons-of-laser-hair-re - "While laser hair removal doesn’t get rid of hair forever (only electrolysis is FDA-approved for permanent hair removal), it does drastically reduce hair growth-to the point that you can stop shaving altogether."
Julie Gurley uh you can say that again. Honey I did like a few months of electro and I’m African American and honey when I tell you I’m trying to get a revision smh 🤦🏽♀️
@ no what she says is true... electrolysis is the only true permanent way to remove hair .. just takes longer and costs more over all. but worth it .. 100 hrs on a face min
thanks for the information.A very informative video for health professional who provide service for patients who have undergone transition related surgery.

Thank you Doctor there so much learn from your presentation. I always wanted this surgery but I have anxiety in the hospital itself so I really think I can not handle the operation ☹
You can do it! I believe in you! While it may seem scary at first, statistics and science say that it would help you immeasurably.
Very nice presentation. Thank you!
That is everything anyone could ever want to know about vaginoplasty i.e sexual reassignment surgery but were afraid to ask. thank you.
Thank you for sharing the informational and educational video. Good luck and best wishes to all your transgender clients. Love from Canada.
good video, although its worth pointing out, if you stop dilating after youve fully recovered, the vaginal canal is not going to seal shut. it might close to a minimum size and penitrative might not be feasible but can always restart the process if you ever want to have penitrative sex again. (this comes from several transwomen ive spoken too who have had the procedure. you can also find many testimonials online. ) just remember that everyone is different and YMMV (your mileage may vary)
think aboit it like this. you cant just dive into anally penetrating sex, you have to dialate, essentially. especially for those who enjoy larger objects
Fully recovered meaning after scar maturing has taken place.. after that point it won't shrink or change in size permanently.
@@Isaaa-tr5rw yeah something like that, idk the specifics, i just know what ive learned from people who have actually had the surgery. again YMMV so just be cautious when doing anything (assuming you, or whoever reading this is having the surgery )
@@Mekelaina
I got this information from my surgeon (Dr.Schaff in Munich Germany).. thats what he observed in most of his patients (over 20 years of performing this surgery and thousands of patients)
@@Isaaa-tr5rw interesting, do you know what the average time for scar maturing ?
Well done. The main point is the overall physical health of the patient.
What about psychological health
@@neoutopiamessiah3 Lmao
@@neoutopiamessiah3the patient would not of gotten to the stage of having surgery if their psychological health and status was not considers before hand. as this is only going over the surgery its self physical health is the higher off the two on the priority list
@@neoutopiamessiah3 sorry, cost is not something i really associate with health care as im from the uk. so that may be the way it works in usa but over here having worked with doctors for the past 5 years in a clinical setting i can say for sure it is not how its done over here. we try and give all patients the best care we can
@@SDlona the problem is how you define "the best care" this is the most common mistake in the world, the belief that your perception of something is perfectly accurate and unquestionable. When you say you provide the best care possible you are also using the unscientific and unethical assumption that the best care is to mutilate a persons genitals and sterilize them for life because that person is insane and thus easily taken advantage of, and thus that doctor is abusing their power as a doctor to make a decision that makes the nazis look humane. You see, the best possible care is just emotional drivel used to manipulate people into agreement because you have no ability to argue with logic and reason.
I must give everyone the channel credit for they clear visuals and explanations.
Grateful for the time this surgen took to explain the proccess "freely" were im from in the uk i cant even get an explanation on how to live off £300 per month while being unfit for work due to ill health and why i have to live in a dangerous,serious health hazzard..slum landlord propperty being a full uk citizen
What comes to Me after watching two people go through the process is how important it is to have loving people around for emotional care. Sure, there is therapy but I don't think
it can ever supplant the love of family or closest of friends to walk with.

Kim Chi oh please 🙄
This is what make us humans.
Thank s you for your information,, very interesting. Yes
Good presentation!
I do want to note that the requirements are absolutely constructed as barriers though. It's kind of silly to say "a requirement isn't a barrier."
WPATH and HBIGDA codified the explicitly gatekeeping practices of the 1960's and 1970's. While they have liberalized, there are still barriers trans people have to face that cis people don't. If you want insurance, doubly so as their standards are stuck in 1970 because it means less people can achieve them so they have to pay less.
Exactly... The medical profession is totally Transphobic...
I wonder if I can put a zip tie around my saft get close to the er maybe cut off or pay some one can I live Tru it had my balls remove after testticalaur torstion it don't work I hate it
Thank you so much Dr. Ng! I cant wait! :)
Please talk to intersex/DSD patients who have undergone many genital surgeries before undergoing this surgery! We have a lot of lived experience and wisdom to share.
This was very informative. I learned a lot, despite that that shit crazy though lol I am eager to get this procedure but you have to play the patience role. I only recently started my HRT going to two weeks and I had already made up my mind I have no need of my testicles and penis. I hate to have to "tuck" it in. I have no desire for children anymore (im 30 and already have one). I should have started HRT many years ago but it was difficult to come out. I couldn't wait anymore. Knowing all of this back then I could have been more used to the transition.
When I said that shit crazy its because there's a lot of healing and recovery and possible complications that can occur but also the fact that it shows the requirements to being able to get the procedure done. Top surgery such as breast implant isn't this crazy but I guess it's because the surgery is irreversible. I wish there was more studies being done to further advance this procedure but I'll wait 3 years before I get this done.
Please don't do it 😭
You can do it! I have your back! I completely understand your dysphoria, as I have dealt with mine since I was 3 years of age, and I know how horrible it feels, especially when you have to tuck constantly just to feel okay, and not be judged by strangers with wondering eyes.
Thanks for the information! This helped a lot!
In all of your inquiry, what have you found for reasoning for not removing the male prostate during GRS/SRS ? ... And what function, if any (?), does it serve for a Transgender Woman to retain that part of male anatomy ? Thank you for your most informative video ! - Farley A.
Pleasure also trying to remove it makes the surgery way more dangerous so it's not worth it
@@wyldcardsam Thank you, though I would think, given the troublesome nature of the male prostate for most, if not all, after a certain age, that removal might be advisable (?). Does it (Prostate) serve any function or purpose for a someone transitioning to female from male ? - Farley A.
@@farleyandrews7269 it works as out g spot. Also removing it can cause incontinence. Though the use of estrogen makes us less likely to deal with prostate cancer
Ejaculation, control of urinary voiding, and a large portion of sexual function. Not something any sane person removes when it’s perfectly healthy.😬
I want to do that I can't believe I'm good to enjoy being myself with being a person who went through with the surgery and the way I feel about it.
Very interesting, and well explained !
What if the patient has undescended testicles? Is it okay to undergo the vaginoplasty?
We also need to focus on a detransition protocol, or the process of going back to original birth sex in cases where srs was a mistake.
Not possible
Not possible, or worthwhile. The rate of regret for SRS is 0.27% and is uniformly due to surgical complications.
It would be more effective to have better training for therapists, so people know they actually have dysphoria, and not something like DID, so we can make sure that no one (or atleast way less people) gets a surgery they will regret.
@@bostonvontugeln7325 surgery already takes over a year and months of prep to prepare for. As a result, the number of people who regret it is a negligible 0.27% and only exists due to the rate of surgical mishap.
There are not confirmed cases of people regretting the surgery with the exception of incredibly uncommon anecdotes that can not be confirmed to be accurate. So this would be defending a population of people that doesn't actually exist at the expense of everybody else involved.
What of informed personal individual responsibility?
50 years ago tattoos were the permanent taboo of choice, now it's G.R.S???
There are already too many professionals to appease before even the HRT phase of transistioning. I think that mature adults seeking this treatment should have less hoops to hop thru. 25yrs old and under need the in place protocols, it is afterall an obvious permanent procedure.
Excellent video and resource! Great job!

Thank you for the information
Why did I read the comments... 🤬 ok now I'm throwing my 2 cents!
If you are transitioning or have transitioned, that is what you want, GOOD FOR YOU! Be your truest self!
Love yourself for who you are!
1. It does NOT matter the "cause" of someone to be transgender! If that is what they want, so be it! Insurance companies are considering it a necessary surgery! (Providing that circumstances are met)
2. If you are someone who is bashing ANYONE, just be careful of your hate, anger, frustration or dislike... You never know who or when it may be someone you love!
3. I do not give a flying F-bomb your belief system, gender, sexuality, creed, ethnicity, nationality, or any other background I forgot to mention... your body = your canvas : not yours = no say!
4. What does it really matter? Education of what they do and go through might shed some light into your dark mindspace? I do not think very many people have enough RESPECT for those beautiful people (go ahead and talk, if it is negative you are just proving yourself insecure about it! )
5. I am not trans, so if you are about to hate on me, question yourself! Why? what make someone else so upsetting to you?
6. They have feelings too, just like me, just like you! In my mind you have a few choices: accept and enjoy the person as they are, coexist peacefully, or shut up mind your own business and stay the heck out of their life!
7. If you are against it, why are you even here? Troll? Stroke you ego? Compensate for something you lack?
perhaps searching for yourself, and scared?
8. If you are about to pounce, saying you are not a "hater" or are not against transgender, there is no reason you should be offended! you really have nothing to say?
9. Acceptance is something everyone should learn, even embrace! I know several people that felt bad enough about the way people treated them, they are no longer alive! If you actually are willing to accept that an opinion is worth more that a life... you REALLY need to rethink things!!!
I am looking stuff up to educate myself as I didn't know what was involved, it is a huge thing (I'm supportive of living, the best life you can, as long as it does not harm others!)
10. If you are about to say something about how it hurts the family... well I know several families that have trashed a family member for little things, petty differences of opinion, so you got no dice here either! IF YOU TRULY LOVE SOMEONE you should respect and accept them no matter how different they are!
Post rant: I truly feel sorry for those out there that can't wrap their mind around accepting different! Sad, sorry, angry, lonely people... I know some personally, and they just destroy their lives, bit by bit, one relationship at a time and end up living alone and miserable in their older years! Sadly some end up with a funeral that looks more like a party...(I was told of one, nobody attended, they went to the bar instead, I believe I was also told the significant other bought first round!)
Be kind, and respectful... you do not have to understand or agree... but why be negative? It just brings more negativity into your life!
Focus on positive, and you will find more positive!
Thank you 🙏🩺
Dr Ng, thank you for your presentation. A question - noting that there are so many questions around the suitability of BMI in assessing a persons actual size, just how set in stone is this as a measure of suitability for surgery. Now I am obese, I have no misconceptions of this, but if I am aware of the risks and am making an informed consent to GRS, should I not be able to undergo surgery? I would appreciate your thoughts on this please.
This also has relevance for a friend of mine who was recently removed from a waiting list for surgery where BMI was the stated reason. Her reading was 0.4 over the upper guideline of 35 and only because she received a breast reconstruction as part of her overall SRS programme.
This is why we have to end infant circumcision.If they decide to do this as an adult, there will be way less tissue to work with.
i agree 100%
No. Just stop mutilating baby’s genitals at birth. Foreskin is there for a REASON!
thank's for the class
Mostly similar to practices here in the Netherlands :) but i didn't have to stop taking HRT till surgery day and had no negative effects because of it (only stopped taking blocker the day before surgery because i wouldn't have balls after anyway). Perhaps that was experimental?
Is it alright to just take the hormones anyways til the day of surgery? I feel like 6 weeks would mess it up.
The reason they stop the hormones is because the increased danger of blood clots. It’s an unnecessary surgical risk
yes, you were experimented on - it has been a few years and it is still impossible to change your sex. Sterilization and mutilating experiments are still all science can offer. I hope someone told you that truth before you volunteered. Good luck.
Thank you!!

I have always wondered about something that I have never been able to bring myself to ask . The Last thing I want to do is hurt a person in the transsexual society . Life is difficult enough without stray people being mean , and it is easy to accidentally offend when one doesn’t know much about people whose life experience differs greatly from ones own . My question is this ..... I have perceived that the body movements , facial expressions, and manner of speaking in transgender women frequently resembles those of gay men . Why is that ? Is it a matter of not yet fully fitting the new external truth to the long existing internal truth ? Is it that they are comfortable as they are , and don’t care to “pass” . I realize that to radically change ones manner of communicating with others in order to conform to society’s views is probably close to impossible and really not worth the hard work . Don’t bother to answer if you see my comment as coming from ‘just another twit’ .I ask because I am genuinely interested and I believe the more we know of the lives of people experiencing life in a way unfamiliar to us , the better society can embrace all people .I mean open minded decent people, of course .Bigotry , bullying and kindness is unfortunately rampant in this world . Thank you for an interesting and informative video .
It's usually because some of us aren't 100% keen on having to conform to patriarchal standards of 'femininity'. As a trans woman myself, you wouldn't see me dead in a dress outside of very special occasions or painting my nails. I'm a jeans/anime t-shirt kinda person, I just have tiddy.
It's a good question and you asked it kindly. I can't exactly answer it, but just like Nebula said, I'm not like that. I'm just an average jeans/t-shirt kind of country gal. I don't come across like the stereotype gay male, but rather like the flower gardener lady next door. I think there's too much stereotyping of both gender and sexuality and it makes it easier to miss the many of us that don't fit the stereotype. We all pass by trans and gay people in our daily life and not even know it. With that said, I do meet trans women who behave as you describe. I can't speak for them, but I just assume they're being their natural self. To each her own. Personally, I behave like the "average" woman.... whatever that is (hint: there isn't). I'm sorry I can't answer your question.
Unfortunately, about the only places that Transpeople wont get harrassed or attacked in public are Gay clubs. Even then some of the Gays and Lesbians are Transphobes as well. however, some Transpeople adopt gay mannerisms unconciously. I'm lesbian myself so I dont do anything that men do... except for smacking Transphobes in the head with a bar stool.
Also, it’s good to keep in mind that many trans women were not included in the groups and societal situations where girls and young ladies learn the mannerisms common to their culture. All of those mannerisms are learned behaviors, starting incredibly early in life.
That’s a lot of knowledge to have to learn in a relatively and comparatively short period of time, and most of it isn’t verbal or structured.
Im just a female. Curious. This just popped up. The body gets medical attention in everyway. I do not think haters really have the right to be hateful. To each his own on making themselves happy. What a person does in the privacy of their home ,bedroom is no ones buisnes . as long as no ones hurting other s Live and let live. Goodluck and stay safe to everyone going through any medical issue.

@@CindyTemple is it more difficult to get a clitoris than the cavity ya'all get?
@@vera_seppuku I have a real vagina and the real thing is connected from the inside so I can't imagine how it would feel with just an exterior piece to the puzzle.
@@CindyTemple so, its the same with the cavity those ppl do, right?
@@CindyTemple I mean,so then, neo-cavities are as pure cosmetics and non-functional as neo-clitoris' , right?
I need a way to tell my parents in trans (I'm a Male boy-13) but I dont know how. Someone help please
NathanLolzTer - You have your whole life ahead of you. Don’t fall for the fashion of the day. It’ll pass as all fashion does. Give your self time to think deeply and clearly about who you are a human being.
You need to see a therapist especially one with experience talking to people with gender issues. If you are experiencing severe depression and anxiety over your gender, you will need to talk to your parents at some point so you can get some help. This doesn't necessarily mean you need to transition, there is nothing wrong with taking your time and figuring things out for yourself. Perhaps experiment with clothing, hairstyle, etc.....baby steps. Either way understand that you are not alone....lots of people have been where you are right now.
Don’t listen to people online who say you aren’t (or are) trans. It’s something deeply personal and different for everyone. Maybe try to find videos about gender dysphoria or look up articles and topics about people who are pre-transition
I would try to talk to a therapist. Depending on how your parents feel about trans issues, it might be better to not say anything.
Puberty fucking sucks, but it’s not the end of the world (even if it might feel like it)
Many trans people don’t start transitioning until they’re well into adulthood, and hormones can still change your bone structure well into your mid twenties.
The most important advice I’ll give you is be true to yourself. Don’t let anyone else tell you who you are. Stay strong
@mommymode1985 The lobotomy was done to mentally ill patients. Between 1940 and 1950 about 20,000 were done, in the US (don't hold me to that...its what I think wiki had on it). The big difference is this was usually done without the consent of the patient as they were institutionalized. Some for something as slight as depression. SRS/GCS is a voluntary procedure that alters a persons body instead of their mind. If you have read about the lobotomy....you can see the results of doing surgery on someones brain to alter behavior such as depression....it is barbaric, we can agree on that. However, a lobotomy compares to GCS/SRS about the same as people comparing gender dysphoria to schizophrenia...you know...no real similarity other than a twisted attempt by right wing christian's to get their panties in a wad over someone transitioning....because oh my gosh it is a "sin" and "think of the children"....and what ever other BS you can throw out there like bathroom safety and erasure of women and lesbians.....you know bullshit. Transition is not right for everyone but for most transgender people it is life saving. Again from my point earlier....this is not your body and not your life. You have no business meddling with the transgender community when we already have actual medical professionals helping us make the most of a difficult situation. When someone is having an issue, they need to be pointed toward medical/psychiatric professionals. Not amateur biologist dishing out X's and Y's from 6th grade biology class.
@mommymode1985 that was the most idiotic reply ive read here ... lol
Weren't they first doing these gender reassignment surgeries in the Weimar republic?
yes in Dresden
The first one attempted was a century ago now. It failed horrifically, the modern improvements help.
The Great Wall of Vagina. Clever. I will be cringing for days after watching this video. One has to be very brave to go through such a procedure. It seems like so many things could go wrong.
I’m gonna go right out and do this. What about girl to boy. That’s what I want. Help
There's generally two (three) bottom surgeries for trans guys, metidioplasty and phalloplasty (and hysterectomy)
You can't go right out and do anything lie this, you need doctor's notes saying you have valid likelihood you wont regret this.
Ever see the movie Frankenstein?
Oatmeal here is spot on. Look those options up and decide for yourself what suits you. Generally metoidioplasty has the least complications and will result in a functional and sensitive penis. A small penis, but a fully working one. The Phallo is more risky but will result in a decent size. Hysterectomy is generally safe enough. All up to you.
@@fabrizio483 you're right in the sense that one's inate identity is immutable. If performed on you this surgery would probably indeed be 'cosmetic mutilation' but for somebody suffering a severe case of gender dysphoria this would on a similar level probably best described as 'removing a third malformed arm'. The patient receiving it would feel a great sense of relief afterwards (and quite some pain for a while).
@@fabrizio483 think is... They already tried. Transgender medicine is quite old already with notable progress in the 1930s. They tried shrinks, electro shocks and meds. Or just plainly locking trans people up in insanity wards. What did work was actually letting said patients do what they wanted done. Surgeries like these where once even far more invasive. They once actually transplanted reproductive systems. Synthetic hormones? They used animal hormones or even put ovaries in trans women and the likes. Trans people and treatment appeared uncommon apart from some cases such as 1950s Christine jorgenson. Haha the terrible director Ed Wood was supposed to film her story but instead made Glen or Glenda.

What if you require surgery because you have a lot of genital dysphoria but you aren't able to take hormones or confident enough to present and live in actualised woman role publicly? That's a hard barrier to treatment for many people.
That needs therapy. Surgery won’t fix those things.

David Willis are u serious? U realize the high percentage of ppl that get this surgery still commit suicide or end up regretting this later on in life? I know there is ppl who really prefer to be a woman for the rest of their life but a HUGE amount of ppl that do this just have a fetish and end up in serious regret and depression. “Trans” suicide is really high regardless and I’d be willing to bet the ones who commit suicide over having a cock would be the same ones who would do it post removal
@@隠れた花 all studies I've found point to less than 5% of people who transition detransitioning... HOWEVER regret is not the only reason for detransition. I have a friend who detransitioned because of her hostile family and is now re-transitioning, after moving away.

@Lrf82 the risk of removing it is higher than the risk of leaving it in place.

This excellent dhoe
I had heard that there would be a lot of pain so I was surprised that there wasn't. I suppose that we are all different when it comes to pain. My VP was a Failure, the surgeon said it was me but he was at the end of his career and needed to feel that he had 'done his best'. In France doctors are embarassed to do this sort of work although they are not embarrassed to get paid for it ! I then had a Colovaginoplasty by another surgeon who operated on the thousands of Biological women born WITHOUT a vagina !! yes there are many ! Unfortunately they nicked a blood vessel and I had internal bleeding so I had to go back into surgery for another 4 hours ( after an initial 6 ) to find the cause. Then the anaesthesist messed me up and convulsions set in destroying the work. Several attemps were made to repair me. Results being a closed sphinter situation entrance to my vagina that no one has been able to correct. I have regularly to go Under GA to have it prised open and cleaned and checked for problems. It goes to say that this ruined any hope of a Relationship and ended up shutting me down. I was Simply the small % of unsuccesful ones. On the other hand I looked great from day one and was even Lucky enough not t otake hormones! Doctors are now telling me to have the whole thing amputated and for the moment I cannot bring myself to do it despite it being non functional. That is life ! Win some lose some, or in this case lose some then lose some more!
Stephanie Murray holy shit; I am so sorry this happened to you. Your positive attitude is inspiring
incredible story... it seems to me that you need a lot of money in order to get the best possible outcome with the least risk. Even though i heard it is free here in Canada, i heard they sent you to have it done in Russia where it is less expensive and where they give you the worst 'way' of doing that surgery. If you don't have your own money and a lot of it, i don't think it is worth it then...
@@jessikapiche6097 The problem is that I didn't pay for anything, it was all on the free health system here in France. Before this I did find a surgeon in Brussels and had planned for him to do it and pay for it. This surgeon had done my neck and he was someone nice that I trusted. When I went to the psychiatrist to obtain an assessement for the surgeon he refused to give it to me and said that 'finally' I was a 'good canditate' for surgery in France. What he meant was that they wanted to focus on operating those they thought 'passed' well so as not to attract negatif attention from the board of directors. Bascially no 'truck drivers' or TG too old. I had no choice but to accept or go through another 2 years of evaluation for a assessment for the Belgium surgeon. It was a no win. I achieved a lot through surgery, my true Identity recognised and freedom to live my life as me and not as a version of me. I lost too but that is life.
@@TheFiown You are a very mature person and i salute your courage to have go through all this and be able to see the positive it STILL was for you.
I want to add something that i find disturbing though. Those 'Truck drivers and TG too old...'...
All of this is the 'best' our system can do i guess...so in the end we have to accept that. But i have a thought for all those poor souls who can't even live in their appropriate gender because their body don't fit (or their age) the 'system'... it is a nightmare.
I am sorry you had to go through so much to feel 'yourself'... it is no wonder so many people suicide with this problem...there is simply no 'easy way' to go through this...
@@jessikapiche6097 You have to put things into context. I had my operation back in 1995 and there was no internet, no support groups. My only aid was a Pastor who took care of many minorities. He was taken into custody for questioning over some shady minority group and the police killed him during questioning and threw his body into a river. It sound like Something from a movie but these things happen. It was a big scandal back then. So I lost my support. Before I set out to go through the transition my little sister was killed then my father died and my mother got cancer so each time I put 'me' on hold and dealt with family. I awoke one day to realise that time was flying and I was almsot 38 so I just went for it. Today there is a lot of help on RUclips, sometimes for worse than better but Trans people are not alone. In the 90's, here in France Trans people were seen as mentally ill, or prostitutes. One doctor actually asked me where I was going to be 'working' for clients ! In life you have to take away the good and the positive and leave the rest if not the weight of it will drag you down. I Don't regret waiting so long as I took care of my family. I am now alone but there is much to be happy about and I must focus on that. Every day I wake up I say 'thank you'. Take care .
Do you perform surgery?
What is the total cost to the patient??? Sounds expensive, then a breast implant?
Many times breast implants aren't needed, as hormone therapy let's you grow your own breasts naturally.
@@arkhani. I agree. I have.
If you get a vaginoplasty, Its average cost ranges from
ehh roughly 4,000-12,000 dollars!
But that all depends on the vaginal correction that will need to be done, and if anything goes wrong! I’ve heard that in a low amount of cases trans people post op can have something go wrong like a hematoma or something blood related! so roughly the cost will be between 4-12k!
You keep using the term 'vaginal canal', but the vaginal canal is an organ in it's own right and cannot be 'made' by inverting the penis, etc.
Are you making sure your patients know that they're not getting an *actual* vaginal canal with this surgery? If not, wouldn't that interfere with their ability to make an informed decision/give informed consent? Same goes for the clitoris and any other female organ you claim to be able to 'make' during this procedure.
I believe trans women would be well aware of that. Though they might wish that didn't have to be the cases. However, the surgery does aliviate disphoria.
They are the same tissue tho. Get beyond middle school biology.
Extremely uneducated comment! If you have any kind of education into the human body that is known as medical education, you would know that there are women born without vaginal canals! One has to be surgically created! Guess in your eyes it’s not a real vaginal canal then!
How can you tell the difference between trans and biological woman by looking at the virgina
All 7 trans mtf women that I know who have had this surgery either regret this surgery, feel lied to, feel that they have mutilated their body’s, feel that the dilating needed to keep the canal open is unrealistic (especially teenagers). It usually takes these people around one year to realize what they have done to their bodies. The real problem is that these trans people want to feel like real women. This surgery doesn’t make them a real woman and the only way to really help these people is to help them love themselves for who they are, not by mutilation, sterilization and castrations.
Cool story, sis.
It’s fabricated, but cool story.
@@ThreeFortyThree I’ve been interested and interviewing trans people for 3 years now. Non of this is a story, but you believe whatever you like.
from the post surgery meetings, the research shows that 0.27% of people regret the surgery. That’s so rare you know that many people! it’s unbelievable! It defies the logic and studies! Stop saying things like this
@@sevenoncr4ck post surgery meetings? So straight after surgery? 2 years later? I’d like to know because if you’re in the industry, you’re going to make the statistics look good for more customers. I bet these statistics come from asking people straight after surgery if they are happy or if they have any regrets.
no, actually they have a year before their last post op meeting. Also, some people regretting it doesn’t mean it should be inaccessible for people who truly need it. Every 49 seconds, a lgbt person under the age of 25 attempts suicide. These are the people who don’t have support, and can’t transition. (Or “mutilate” themselves. I really hate that term, as it brings the light away from mutilation in many west Asian countries, done in a basement causing irreparable harm that they didn’t want)@@WatermelonPlayzzRoblox-lol
Isn’t it easier and more effective to treat the underlying dysphoria with SSRI’s? Cheaper too. But that would be too easy and wouldn’t allow doctors to get rich off people with this condition. The Hippocratic oath mandates, “Do no harm.” You take perfectly functioning organs and surgically remove and/or alter them irreversibly.
SSRIs have a negligible effect on gender dysphoria. The only "cure" to dysphoria is to transition and HRT and GRS have both proven times and times again to decrease dysphoria

Hey everyone I'm transgender.
Meh, i dont mind what i have now but you do you 👉👉
Dear me, life long douching and dilating to maintain a cavity???
Even whoever hermaphrodite or person with two genders may also udergo sex change operation,he or she has period but may also become pregnant & give birth
Are the patients told that its a life long medical situation, the body tries to close up the hole, the body knows its not right and tries to heal the hole on its own, totally ridiculous!
Can i make the point here that although the person is getting the gender reassignment surgery so that they feel happy in the body that they are happy with genetically a man born a male is still a male based on chromosomes. That doesn’t not change after surgery. A Male who undergoes this surgery is undergoing it for plastic surgery reasons only. And a female who undergoes female to make gender reassignment is a female underlying regardless of their forward facing gender. You see with all this being the norm now children at school have this idea that male to female means that the person underneath is a female going forward with reproductive organs and womb etc........ we know this is not true but our children are being brought up on this falsehood. A female likewise who transitions to a male will never ever be able to procreate with another female ie fertilise the egg with a sperm. We know this because a female who transitioned to a male and then stopped taking testosterone so she could have a baby. She wanted to be name as the father. The courts rightly threw this out because the underlying dna chromosomes etc dictate that the person is genetically female even though the person presents as male. Now i dont care what people do with their bodies or how they live their lives. But i do understand why genetic born females have taken exception in this country particularly where on women’s agendas, health, birth, politics, etc..... a male by birth and surgical altered to look as a female to the world outside. We are seeing children who have had puberty blockers having issues with gender reassignment because the surgery that is demonstrated here doesnt work because it is dependent on the size of the penis and the the way that penis is inverted to create a fake vagina. You cant do that with a boy who has not gone through puberty because there is no length. Jazz had experimental surgery done on her and it nearly killed her. Now dont shout me down. Yes things have changed but the conversation in the background is still the same because when you are born it has male or female on the birth certificate. I know that there are some changes in the off with regards to children will have at their 16th birthday their coming out e male, female, trans, gay etc......... But people need to understand that their children do not understand that a sex change does not make that person genetically the gender that they want to be. A trans woman cannot produce eggs to be fertilised. Medicine is not that far advanced.
I will give an award to whoever read this whole thing; the WHOLE thing; THE ENTIRE UNEDUCATED BOOK THIS TWIT WROTE, without cringing.
I dare him to get his chromosomes checked. I’ll be over here, laughing my ass off, when he finds out that he’s probably not the XY he thinks he is.
(Hint for those who only know “basic biology”: Chromosomes vary a lot in humanity, with a lot more women having a Y chromosome than your basic biology taught you. A lot of dudes have weird ass chromosomes too. And it’s not in any way abnormal.)
Thanks for the uneducated short story!
The biggest issue is this abnormality is pushed to our kids heads as normality.... Wait for 10 years and we will see a huge demand of this procedures but wait another 10 years and see how most operated will scream that it was the biggest mistake of their life....
It is already happening with lots of FTM girls that are going off the hormones to make them masculine. They say they were confused, and actually just a lesbian in many cases. There are so many vids on here where they share their stories. It is heart breaking.
SRS has been a thing for 30 years but the only " Regret " stories you'll hear of are made by..... Radical Christian Fundamentalists.
SRS was first performed in the 1930s, so a bit more than 30 years. But the point stands. This procedure isn’t new. Trans people have existed for as long as humanity has.
When I was growing up, my parents tried to beat it out of me. There was no positive discussions about it. Those like me learned to internalize societies vocal hatred of us. I also learned to hide who I was and my parents then wondered why I was depressed, angry and suicidal.
Fast forward to now, where a part from dealing with a vocal minority of bigots, my life is far better than it ever was before.
Wait to get educated before spreading misinformation! No one is doing the crap you claim! They do not preform surgery on kids like you sick individuals think! They might use a puberty blocker & have a kid at the start or puberty age live as the opposite gender & have them seeing professional help to see if this is who they really are before starting HRT! The surgery is not performed until they hit adulthood if surgery is what they need!
