Metoidioplasy patient looking for all the extras
Hi Dr. Reed,
I am a female and wish to BECOME: Male – FTM
Hormones/Conversion: Yes, I have been on Testosterone since Dec 2, 2002. I have had a full lap hysto and chest reconstruction.
Specific_Questions: Is the vaginectomy included in the 12,500 meta?
If it is then everything for bottom surgery is 12,500+5000 = 17,500?? How much extra is the mons reduction so the penis sticks out farther?
Can you at least tell me the length of stay in Miami for each surgery:
Mons/pubis reconstruction
Metoidioplasty/vaginectomy/ureathral hookup
testicular implants.
Great. Please let me know what you have available in July, the 5th Monday would be good. I wll be in Clearwater, Florida and I could drive down for the appointment.
Do you recommend doing the mons/publis reduction first? If so we could schedule that for late may 2011. If you only require me to be in Miami one or two weeks for the metoidioplasty surgery I could maybe do it earlier than may of 2013. Please let me know.
I can schedule the 3 sugeries separately correct? Mons reduction first, then metoidioplasty/vaginectomy/ureathral hookup and then testicular implants last. How far in advance can I schedule surgery?
Thank you in advance for answers to these questions.

Good afternoon Denar,
Sounds like you are well on your way. Yes, we’ll be happy to include vaginectomy (colpocleisis) in your fee for 12,500. Testicular implants are 5000 extra and I would propose that this be done as a secondary stage. We can do pubic reduction gratis as an additional procedure, but remember the pubis is the delta which drains the lymphatics from the perineum and labia, so too much surgery there causes a swelling and sub-optimal wound healing down below. Best to have that done as a procedure unto itself.
