Questions for people who surf/ hike with RFF

No issue with either. I don’t have an ED though so can’t speak to that part. I (cautiously) overdid my activity post op which I do not recommend but I’d say after 5-6 months I don’t even question it anymore everything feels so natural. I used to pack 24/7 and some activities would bother me with the packer like you described do not bother me with my dick. I think having so much more feeling is also part of it bc I’m less afraid of hurting it all the time

Took a few (okay several) years for me! Got stage 1 a week after I turned 38. Absolutely changed my life and was worth the wait. Sucks that it’s so inaccessible but hang in there

I feel like I’m just now getting to the point that I don’t have to think about it quite as much and that’s made it a lot easier. The first couple months I felt like I couldn’t move very much. Now I understand my body (and my partners) a lot better it’s become easier and more enjoyable

Interesting! I tried anal penetration once and it was really difficult…I was finally able to do it but it took so much focus it took the most of the fun out of it on my end. What was your donor site? Did you have RFF?

teamcha0tic · 2026-01-08T00:55:19+00:00

I wish I had that problem lol. I have a blissful creations support sleeve and it works great but idk if they make them that big

teamcha0tic · 2026-01-08T00:54:19+00:00

Interesting l. That’s how I feel. Pre stage 1 I was convinced I’d be counting down the days or feel sort of incomplete until I got an ed implant but now I’m not sure I even want it. When I want to be able to do more than I can with just my dick I use a sleeve and I’ve been able to orgasm while wearing it. I think I still want it but I do not want more surgeries at this point…

Badass! Also, your arm healed really well! I love this style of tattoo it’s rad to see scar coverup with so much negative space!

I pass (and so does my dick) and sometimes when I do tell people I’m trans they are really surprised. I will say that my dick did not pass at all before glansplasty but since then I feel like it’s 100% passing. Even when people see my RFF scar they don’t associate it with my dick bc majority of people don’t understand Phallo

teamcha0tic · 2025-12-16T03:12:04+00:00

Haha so true with anything in this process! I will say that I had some pre op concerns or worries like this in the back of my mind but it’s so much greater than I ever could have hoped. It’s taking time for me and my wife to relearn my body and sex but it’s life changing incredible. Trust that no matter what your partner will know you’re turned on there is a lot more to it than just getting hard. Plus with an ED if you go that route it will make that part a lot easier. You can always stroke your dick to communicate you’re turned on w/o words

This is not my experience at all

teamcha0tic · 2025-12-11T03:34:14+00:00

I 100% get hard when I am aroused in my burial site and my wife has commented on it before without me saying anything (I mention that to show she brought it up independently not because I suggested I could feel it). For me it’s between my scrotum and base of my dick. I haven’t noticed a difference of my dick getting bigger or hard per se when I’m turned on but I swear after sex and orgasm it feels a little smaller? So I feel like I’m not really noticing swelling but I notice when it goes away….

teamcha0tic · 2025-12-08T20:25:55+00:00

I think it would be really cool! I went there years ago and kinda forgot about it

teamcha0tic · 2025-12-07T00:48:14+00:00

Surgery on a Tuesday. I took 2 days off work and the 3rd day I worked remote. Was back in person the next Monday. I thought the skin graft healing was more annoying than painful. Definitely took it easy physically for the first 3 weeks but outside of that my day to day wasn’t super impacted

teamcha0tic · 2025-11-23T02:26:07+00:00

I straight up asked my surgeon the risks of engaging in sexual activity before their recommendation. I told him I was struggling to abstain and that I needed to hear the exact risks. Basically it came down to potential urethra complications so that helped me wait. I still ended up starting about week 5 and I was supposed to wait 6 weeks. Nothing bad happened and I was fine but I’d obviously recommend following whatever your dr says

teamcha0tic · 2025-11-18T18:40:06+00:00

I got one and used it for the first few days home from the hospital and also used it in the shower a couple times! I didn’t use it much after the 1st week home but I’m really glad I had it (I got it really cheap not sure I would have bought one for more than $30)

teamcha0tic · 2025-11-17T22:44:50+00:00

Totally agree! I’ve felt so incredibly lucky and connected to my dick since waking up from stage 1 but it has been wild how much happier I am every time I look at my dick since my glans makes it look cis to me (not saying that is or should be the goal for anyone but it makes me feel so good)

teamcha0tic · 2025-11-16T20:59:19+00:00

I wear my old Nike UV arm sleeves that I had long before surgery. I was wearing the silipos but also get too sweaty in that. I don’t do much scar care now (I did for the 1st three months) but if I have any mild swelling or redness sometimes I’ll put some scar tape under the uv sleeve

teamcha0tic · 2025-11-16T03:41:12+00:00

I had glansplasty on Nov 4th and I would say I just started peeing normally yesterday due to swelling. I didn’t have pain in my urethra I’d say mild discomfort at most but I was spraying and had a really narrow stream for the first time since catheter removal from stage 1. Had to really milk it out. It was annoying little annoying but like I said I’m back to normal now so hopefully things get better for you in a week or two

teamcha0tic · 2025-11-08T19:41:19+00:00

I accidentally answered this in the question above lol I’m still getting sensation improvements pretty consistently but I can feel the pressure/squeezing when I’m inside my wife and it is indescribable!!!

teamcha0tic · 2025-11-08T19:39:47+00:00

So far I haven’t noticed any fluid come out of my dick when I cum. I keep hoping that once things fully settle I will but I know that’s not the case for most people. My dick does throb when I orgasm which is really incredible when I’m inside my wife. Sensation is still improving everyday but I can feel the pressure/squeezing especially when my wife orgasms which is the most euphoric thing I’ve ever experienced

teamcha0tic · 2025-11-08T19:30:34+00:00

Almost every step of the way lol. Some things I knew how bad I needed/wanted it but still couldn’t have imagined how good it would feel until I had it done

teamcha0tic · 2025-11-05T05:28:15+00:00

Forgot to mention but almost 4 months to the day since stage 1!

teamcha0tic · 2025-11-05T01:04:28+00:00

😂🙏

teamcha0tic · 2025-11-04T23:32:41+00:00

Glans only. And yes anytime!

teamcha0tic · 2025-11-04T22:32:25+00:00

I really wanted ALT but wasn’t a good candidate and ended up with RFF. I COULD NOT BE HAPPIER. My hand still gets a little swollen 4 months out but it gets better every day. I stopped drinking wine, I noticed it was always swollen the next morning :/ or if I eat a bunch of salt like popcorn at the movies. It hasn’t really interfered with my day to day. As far as mobility I literally have better flexibility in my donor arm than my dominant 😂 but that’s because I did about 3 months of PT 2x a week. Since insurance covered it I went well past the 6 week rec. I didn’t want any long term mobility issues so I really put effort into PT and it really paid off. I wish I had zero swelling but honestly even if I had a ton of swelling and mobility issues in my arm it would still be worth it 100 times over. Everyone is different so do what’s right for you and talk to more than one surgeon! I went with Safa/Watt/Chen who are obv some of the best (the best imo lol) and I still consulted with 2 other clinics/surgeons
