Phalloplasty
Phalloplasty is a complex gender-affirming surgery that uses tissue, blood vessels and nerves taken from another part of the body—usually the forearm, thigh or abdomen—to create a phallus that can have sensation and rigidity for sexual intercourse and provide the ability to stand to urinate. While there are more Phalloplasty Surgeons now than ever before, experienced specialists are still relatively rare and it’s very common for patients to have to travel to find care.
