Hi Girls,

Im having my colon SRS/GRS in Aug 1st in Bangkok by Dr. Preecha. Just want to ask if anyone of you has done this procedure. What to expect? The pros and cons you encountered. Also, has one went to Dr. Preecha for their SRS. I know Dr. Preecha doesn't perform the actual surgery due to arthritis. The surgeon that will perform my surgery is Dr. Burin and Dr. Sutin.

I would love to hear your feedbacks and informations.

Thank you!

Ally.....

My original SRS letter is on file with Dr. Preecha in Bangkok and that is where I was going to go....I've been to Bangkok half a dozen times and I love the place and the people.....................

But, because of my age (62) and a few other factors, I'm getting my SRS done in the states (in 51 days...)

I'm also not getting the colon procedure...

Good luck, Hon...

Hi Dee Jay,

Thanks for the reply. I think thats a good idea to do your surgery here in the US.

I chose the colon SRS because of my size issue. I am 10 years post orchiectomy and I am worried ordinary penile inversion with skin graft cannot help it.

Good luck to your surgery

Pros:

Self-lubricates

Cons:

MAJOR surgery because it involves 2 separate body cavities and organ systems. Longer recovery.

Smell. For approximately the first year your self-lubing vaginas discharge will smell like… what a colon usually smells like. I'm told things eventually get better.

Now some may tell you that you don't need to dilate, but that's just not true. You still need to dilate to train the pubo-coccygeal muscles of the pelvic floor to relax. They need to be stretched regularly to ensure (relatively) easy entry if sexual intercourse is in your future. Without dilation things will be very tight down there and your partner may not be able to enter you.

Hi!,,,

I'm 2 months post op with pai institute and my dr was Burrin. I also did the colon surgery.

Recovery was not bad at all actually pretty easy if you follow the instructions and take things easy. I think what helped me the most was the fact that I walked everyday after the 3 rd day of surgery while in Bangkok. It is very hard to do but everyday you get more strength and I noticed that I was healing rapidly.

The best thing I should remark on was the face of dr Burrin when he removed my bandages revealing his work. His smile was so gigantic looking at my vsgina that I knew he was more then o,eased with his work you could sense his pride.

Eating will be challenging for the first month. You won't be able to eat much and you will be going to th bathroom to relieve yourself constantly. I still go #2 at least 5 times a day Sorry to sound so gross lol.

When I returned home I went to see my gyno/ endo who also used to fix srs surgeries by

Doctors in the USA and she was beside herself. She said my results are spectacular.

I'm very self conscious of it because I'm. Not used to it and how it looks so I always think somethingnisnwrong. But she assures me that it all looks the same and not every vagina looks like a playboy models. Lol

The scar on my stomach is healing well and the scarring is diminishing. What I really loved about my surgery isnthatbi have no outer suture scars. He did the suturing of my majora on the inside of the lips. It's fantastic. The only thing I'm nervous abiutnisnthe size of my clit. To me it's rather large but birth him and my local dr disagrees. Again im comparing to most women. Im hoping it goes down a bit in the next few months and I realize that only 2 mo post op.

My clit is toooo sensitive. I've orgasmed 4 times now by stimulating myself right above my clit which was super intense. I can't touch my Clint yet. Soon I hope. But the sensitivity has been going down a bit to a point where should be tolerable soon.

As far as smell goes , my dr can't smellit buti can. There's so much stuff going on down there. The worst is the pee smell that I'm trying to handle with understanding mire thorough cleaning including under my clit and on my urethra. Im crazy clean so this drives me nutts. But I'm handling its gotten way better. The other smell more in the beginning of healing was this fishy smell. Eichnisncaused by leftover ky jelly. So rice and douche with water to get it all out.

I would suggest purchasing the ceramic stents (dildos) from the clinic. It's a set of 4 and the size difference is a trip. Then,eight is the same at 8.5" but the girth is what is really is for. I'm current,y on number 3 and it feels the best although number four looks like a monster lol. It will run ou around $250. I started dilating with the candle that they provided for the first week then moved onto the number 1 in the ceramic.

You will love preechas clinic and the staff at thebhospita are so caring. I'm really happy I went to preecha who also did my orchi 11 years ago. A bit of advice from my gyno: prior to me going for the surgery she prescribed me prem cream to out on my scrotal area to stretch the skin and make it more pliable for surgery. I'm so glad I did. I love having the look of both minors nd marjora. It's very p,easing

Good luck!!!!!

actually Dr.chettwut offerd that option , i contacted Dr.Kamol too he said either i go colon or skin graft , pai they only offered colon . and the only reason im considering PAI institute is that i know few girls that went there and had good results .

and kinda scared of Kamol cause i cant find that much reviews online . chettawut is great but still trying to read more reviews (choosing which doctor is the hardest thing everrrr) im hisitate mostly cause i dont want to regret choosing my doctor .

      Love it! This is great news. We need more of this to combat the excessive hate-filled rhetoric and misinformation. 👍

      The experience was the same for me @April Marie. I slept much deeper and I woke up each morning feeling so much more restful sleeping with forms solidly in place. For me, wearing breast forms at night started when before I was a teenager. I had no access up to modern breast forms and certainly no way to buy mastectomy bras back then. I wore a basic bra my mom had put in a donation box and two pairs of soft cotton socks. I have some crazy memories of things I did in my youth to combat my GD but regardless, these makeshift concoctions helped me work through it all.   All My Best, Susan R🌷

      Colorado isn't exactly a Republican place, and won't become one anytime soon.  I think those folks might be better off not spending their time playing Don Quixote.    We certainly have our share of California "refugees" moving into where I live, so I wouldn't be surprised to start seeing Coloradans too.  I suspect the trend over the next few years will see the blue areas getting more blue and the red areas getting more red as anybody who can relocate tries to find a place where they fit better.

      Well, at least it'll be a place some folks could choose.  Options are a good thing.

      My family would have gobbled that jar up in a minute or two.  When we do have pickled herring, its usually for Christmas.  I didn't grow up with that particular dish, but I grew up in a Greek family so I like just about any kind of fish if I can get it.  However, ocean fish and freshwater fish taste so different.  We usually have more catfish and tilapia to eat than anything else.    What I can't quite get used to is the tons of cabbage my GF insists on eating.  When you live with a Russian, there is always cabbage soup.  Always.  When I first moved in with her, breakfast was "shchi" for soup and either bread or "kasha" which is a bowl of boiled buckwheat with butter and salt.  Those dishes can be made in any number of ways, some are better than others.  In the winter, it can even be salty and sour like kraut.  Not exactly sauerkraut, but packed in tubs with vinegar and salt so it keeps partially for the winter.  But I drew the line when the cabbage soup included pieces of fried snake one day.  😆

      Good evening to you as well @Mmindy   That is awesome that you have support from her side. My dad has communicated with me once and that was because he was forced to. His new wife wanted to spend time with my kids. He hated me so much he was in the process of taking my rights away as a parent to my two boys. He was talking to a lawyer and I called him out on it. I don't love him at all. I'll respect him because I wouldn't be here without him but I wished I had another father. My uncles don't talk to me and unfriended me on Facebook. Almost all cousins except for two are still Facebook friends but they don't give me any support. My mom said she won't support me with that but she has said that she loves me. I have nieces and nephews that are still Facebook friends but they have yet to talk to me. I have one sister that supports me out of three. The other's disrespect me by deadnaming me. They have never called me their sister. I think for them they think it's still a phase. They don't ask questions about me being trans. I have to bring it up and on the look of their faces they don't look comfortable about it.

      Good evening @Ashley0616,   I just got offline with HP tech support trying to get my printer tool box icon locked to my tool bar. This is one of the most important features of my printer that I like because it keeps track of ink, paper, and scanned documents. I'm diffidently not a computer geek.   I'll catch up with the other bookmarks next week. We leave to go home for the Easter Holiday with our families. Saturday with her side, and Sunday with my side. What's odd about that is I'm out to more of her side and they're reluctantly supportive. My side on the other hand are less supportive, and my sister just under me in age will not acknowledge my being there. She will be constantly moving to keep from dealing with me. I'm dead to her.   Hugs,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      I used to follow baseball and the team I would cheer for is Boston Red Sox. My favorite player was Papi. He was an awesome guy and even held a child during the National Anthem. I haven't watched baseball for a long time. It just died off to me. 
    • Ashley0616
      That stinks that nothing transferred, and no bookmarks were saved!

      I'm doing patches for now but I think soon I'll go to shots because it's hard to alternate when you are doing two xx patches at once. Unless she gives me Estradiol and progesterone

      Go Cleveland Guardians!  I love baseball and I loved playing it when I was younger.

      My view is we are "dependent" on government, because as a society, we are too lazy to stay actively involved. So, we let politicians do our bidding for us.  I think we'd be in a better place government wise if we policed the actions of our politicians.  We elected them; they work for us.  Sadly, we are allowing them to run amok.  We are where we are because we have chosen to let politicians make all decisions without us.  Remember "by the people, for the people?" That was the intent of our democracy.  Today, however, it is "by the politicians, for the politicians," the people be damned.

      "Play Ball! Batter Up!" is the closing line of the National Anthem as far as I'm concerned. It's the call of the Home Plate Umpire and signals the start of the game. I grew up in the TV and Radio broadcast of the St. Louis Cardinals. Harry Caray, Jack Buck, Tim McCarver, and Mike Shannon, were the voices on my transistor radio. KMOX 1120 AM pushing 50,000 watts of Class A clear-channel non-directional signal. It could be picked up all across MO, IL, IN to the East. KS, OK, CO to the West. IA, MN to the North, and KY, TN, AR to the South. There has always been a rivalry against the Chicago Cubs, in the National League. As for the American League, I have to pull for the Kansas City Royals. I've also been a Little League Umpire, and fan of everything the Little League stands for. Going to Williamsport, PA and seeing the Little League World Series is in my top 10 things to do on my bucket list.   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Good evening everyone,   I don't think my mother ever cooked a meal that I didn't like. We also had a kitchen where mom fixed the food, dad filled your plate, and you eat it. It wasn't until our baby brother was born that we could have Pop-Tarts for snacks. Before that all snacks had to meet mom's approval, and in her opinion wouldn't prevent you from eating supper.   Well my day started off on a good note, but has become frustrating because my IT person didn't transfer my saved videos I use for teaching. Then I found out that they didn't save any of my book marks for websites I use frequently.   Best wishes, stay motivated,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      The number is relative to method of deliver, the time of the dose, and when the blood is drawn. However, I do want to keep away from DVT and other potential issues. I assume I may be getting backed down from my current dose, but my doc told me to stick with the higher dose, so? I also wonder if this has anything to do the my breast growth and mental changes that have been happening over the past few years, like I have some estrogen sensitivity so a little goes a long way or something? I don't have enough data to postulate, but who knows!   With weekly, subcutaneous, shots you expect to see big swings of serum level estradiol from shot to peak to trough. My doctor is interested in mid-week testing (for E and T levels only), which would be post-peak blood serum levels but they will be higher than trough. Most, if not all, resources I've seen online is to measure at trough (which I might do just to do it next time) along with a SHBG, LH, and other metrics.   This is from transfemscience.org for Estradiol valerate in oil, which is very spiky compared to some other estradiol combinations. It's also for intramuscular, which will have a slower uptake and is usually dosed in higher volume due to the slower absorption rate from muscles. They don't have subcutaneous numbers, which I would expect to see similar spikes but higher levels at similar doses due to the relatively higher absorption rate direct from fat.   Are you doing pills, shots, or patches? And when you do get your levels checked are you getting that done when your levels are lowest or some other time?
