I have to say, while I'm mostly satisfied with my top surgery process (& my surgeon did a VERY good job), it's really shocking how much of my aftercare knowledge comes from community and not from the medical center itself

What’s the oldest still-cycling implant you’ve ever removed? I’ll go first: As @SJHudak said, “that implant could drive and vote and rent its own car!” Name the implant! @SocietyGURS @Ethan_matz @adam_baumgarten @BenDropkin @clavelluro @alextatem @billyjaffe @drhelenbernie

Step back in time to the 15th century, where the fascinating journey of penile implants began. Ambroise Paré, a pioneer in the field, ingeniously crafted artificial penises from wood, laying the groundwork for a remarkable evolution in the science of intimate well-being. Fast forward to 1936, when Nikolaj Bogoraz dared to embark on an audacious mission—utilizing rib cartilage as a groundbreaking implant. Since those early days, a symphony of innovation and refinement has played out, resulting in the superb quality implants and surgical techniques we enjoy today. Picture the progression—each improvement a step closer to perfection, yet fueled by the idea that "perfection is the enemy of progress." From wood to rib cartilage, and now to the cutting-edge implants and techniques of our time, the quest for excellence in penile implants has been an extraordinary voyage. Today, couples experience unprecedented satisfaction, thanks to the fusion of man's ingenuity and the relentless pursuit of scientific advancements. As we revel in the achievements thus far, let's embrace the excitement of the unknown—because in the realm of science and human experience, there's always room for improvement and discovery. The history of penile implants is not merely a chronicle of the past; it's an exhilarating testament to the unyielding spirit of progress and the endless possibilities that lie ahead. #PenileImplants #InnovationThroughTime #ScienceEvolution

FTM Surgery - This is my story! Can you help me find individuals that had phalloplasty or metoidioplasty without vaginectomy that was funded by OHIP? I need people to come forward for my appeal and to prove it used to be paid by OHIP.

ALT flap #phalloplasty is a good option if individual is carefully selected. The pinch test is key if neourethral reconstruction is planned – at South East, England

Trans kids do not get phalloplasty. Just so y'all know. And the procedure is very different from how this man explains it.
