Do I need to be on hormones for vaginoplasty

Hello my name is Revelations,

I am a Transgender woman now living in the UK and an American citizen previously living in Palm Beach.  I am however unsure as to how long i need to be on hormones prior to the operation and to your scale of finances it will take for the procedures and any availabilty that could be afforded to me
  
Thank you for your time,  Revelations 

 

Good morning Revelations, 

Please do not rush into surgery.  Let’s dot all the i’s and cross the t’s.
Be sure all your questions are answered.
You do not need to be on hormones if your are effeminant in your appearance, but could be helpful in producing more secondary sex characteristics such as breast growth.  We do advise stopping all hormones 1 month before surgery and spironolactone for 2 weerks before surgery.

All the best,

Harold M. Reed, M.D.
