Abstract
Genital gender affirming surgery is an effective treatment for gender dysphoria in transgender individuals. Optimization of medical and mental health conditions, including coordination with a patient's entire care team, is essential. Feminizing procedures include vaginoplasty (creation of female genitalia with a vaginal canal) and vulvoplasty (creation of female genitalia with a short or absent vaginal canal). Masculinizing procedures include metoidioplasty (construction of male genitals via local tissue rearrangement) and phalloplasty (creation of a phallus from extra-genital tissue). We aim to provide an overview of genital gender affirming surgery for providers who are interested in learning more about genital gender affirming surgery.
