I see a lot of posts near the event but rarely see any updates in longer time frames.
Are you happy?
Have you had any issues since the surgery?
Can you orgasm?
Any unique hygiene issues?
What are some non-obvious post-surgery things that only become apparent when everything settles back into a routine?
Yeah, also the issue with self lubricant is it’s constant so you will always have discharge. Not a bad thing. Im younger, 30s, but I just have a small thing of lube that I can carry if I’m going somewhere.
Though if they could just do a full swap I would take it so I wouldn’t have to remember hrt lol
yeah, I wasn’t thrilled by the prospect of constant discharge either, but I think I would also just live with it if I felt I felt self-lubrication was a priority. For me the bigger reasons are about the surgery going well, the technique being well-practiced and established, etc.
You missed me with the full swap, though - do you mean you wish they could give you ovaries?
Yeah, I also had baby fever after getting on progesterone.
oh, yeah - I wish I could have ovaries, that would be amazing; I also wish I could have a uterus, but I guess in some ways it is convenient not to have one (no menstruating). I also like the control I have over hormones by injecting them, rather than ovaries that follow a fertility cycle that would be mostly irrelevant to my needs.
Yes the cramps and nausea I get from stress and ulcers is bad already sometimes but that’s reducing with therapy and meds.
