transvaginaali
Transvaginaali is a term used to describe a type of surgical procedure that creates a neovagina. This is often performed as part of gender-affirming surgery for transgender women. The procedure typically involves using existing tissue, such as penile skin and scrotal tissue, to construct the vaginal canal. Surgeons may also utilize skin grafts from other parts of the body if necessary. The goal is to create a functional and aesthetically pleasing neovagina that allows for penetrative sex and aligns with the individual's gender identity. The surgery involves multiple steps and can take several hours to complete. Post-operative care is crucial and often includes dilation to maintain the depth and width of the neovagina. Recovery times can vary, and individuals typically work closely with their surgical team throughout the process. This procedure is a significant step for many transgender women in their transition.
