I know it's a daily mail article but I can't help thinking. We only ever hear positive stories but the figures tell us this. I really hope the men and woman are getting the support they need from these complications. 🥺

Half of trans surgery patients suffer pain, sexual issues years later mol.im/a/11629421 via dailym.ai/android

I know some parents who might be navigating this difficult issue. My main concern is that these kids and young adults get proper mental health support. It just makes me sick that's companies are making a profit out of giving kids and young people drugs and surgery. I'm.no scientist but aren't we meant to go through puberty for genetic reasons? And health stuff. If this is stopped then surgery won't this affect them???

Why are they calling it a vaginoplasty? No surgeon can create a vagina - what these men have received is basically a surgical fistula, with all the inevitable problems that come with it.

Exactly.

Well that’s hardly blimming surprising is it. Creating body parts in a body that wasn’t designed that way.

"Of the 80 trans women sampled in the Canadian study, almost 54% reported ongoing pain up to two years after their vaginoplasty surgery. Many had more than one symptom, which included vaginal dryness, numbness, malodor and issues with the wound's healing" Heartbreaking that the down side to these procedures is not fully explained to those seeking these type of surgeries. Other European studies I have read report similar issues. The only people that appear to be benefitting from these largely experimental surgeries are the surgeons who financially benefit and of course the pharmaceutical companies that benefit from these males being on lifelong cross sex hormones and other meds for the complications that usually come with that medical regime.

These surgeries are a mass medical lawsuit waiting to happen.

Maybe one needs these types of stupid surgeries

littlelid · 16/01/2023 20:30

Maybe they need to study surgery more to find the complications

Abhorrent.
