Abstract

Feminizing genital surgery for transgender women is a feasible and fulfilling intervention in alleviating gender dysphoria. Several techniques in neovaginal creation can be offered, including vulvoplasty, penile skin inversion vaginoplasty, peritoneal vaginoplasty, and enteric vaginoplasty. Complication rates are low and often managed conservatively. Favorable sexual function outcomes indicate high satisfaction rates.<br />Competing Interests: Disclosure J. Elyaguov; J.N. Schardein; J.
