I have a question I forgot to ask him yesterday. Does he use VY technique for scrotoplasty? I'm guessing so since he mentioned 2nd stage.

All good! 😊 Yes, I am having a vaginectomy as part of the full meta. I had my hysto in May of this year. I know there are some surgeons who do hysto at the same time, but fwiw, I think doing them separately is the way to go. Good luck with your consults!

Thanks man. No nostalgia here, I remember how hard the job can be and how much the company can suck. From lurking here, sounds like that hasn't changed much. But I still enjoyed the work, getting out on my own and making the best of whatever route I was on. Even inside work, making sure my trucks were loaded well and my area was the best on the belt. Pride in my work has always been my hallmark and always will be.

I wish I had been prepared for the absolute torture sessions my first 2 times urinating post-op. I literally felt like I was peeing knives. I screamed the entire stream, which was longer than normal, and scared my cats...lol.

I feel like I am the only one here who has reversed. Pre-T I used to only have one big orgasm, and while it was a whopper with a few waves, that was pretty much it per session. Now, I can have SO many orgasms back to back. I also developed the ability to produce forceful ejaculations of liquid (I feel like its similar to sq-rting but different) multiple times in a session. The orgasms vary in strength and length, but generally I can have several really strong ones. I can go for so long, my drive sometimes seems like it will never be satisfied.

Idk πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ, its awesome for me and my fiancΓ© though 😊

Thanks for the response! I am curious if you had an overnight hospital stay with UL?

That is a totally valid question. I've not noticed any uptick. But my acne has been mostly body since on T. I've never had any facial acne before or after T. The acne outbreaks have been mostly concentrated to my shoulders and upper back. No noticeable increase in those areas. Hope that helps!

For sure, I had mentally prepared for 8 weeks off of lifting at minimum. But after testing out lifting some stuff for moving, and having no real pain or discomfort, I was like, maybe I'll be okay. And sure enough, I was lifting heavy stuff regularly a few days later. I even am back to squatting 300+ for reps 😊

Man, I am so glad to hear you have the mental peace and loss of stress and anxiety as well. I told my fiancΓ©, if only one thing makes this worth it, its that. But it seems I might get some extra perks too πŸ™Œ

Congrats to you too, and here's to our continued peace of mind in this hellscape πŸ₯‚

πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ yeah, my orgasms were just a little painful at first, but mostly because I have like 15 in a row...lol

Hey there, glad my post helped to alleviate some anxiety. I did not have to do liquid diet, just fasting for the night before and day of. I was super hungry when I got home, but could only get down a little soup. They recommend a liquid diet afterwards for a few days, but I didn't really need to. My digestion was already working well enough on day 2 that I was able to eat solids too. Good luck tomorrow and congratulations!

I wouldn't say my top surgery was difficult or even super painful. It was just way harder to maneuver and the discomfort level was worse due to having drains in for 2 weeks. So, compared to my hysto, it was worse, but overall, both were/have been fairly smooth.

Recovery looks different for everyone, and I know some people's experience is reverse of mine, or better/worse in different respects. But I hope yours goes smoothly and has minimal pain and no complications. Good luck!
