SynopsisThis book is a direct adaptation of "A Practical Reference for Transgender & Gender-Nonconforming Adults." It covers all aspects of planning a gender-affirming surgery: from choosing the correct surgery and the correct surgeon, paying and preparing for the surgery. It describes both masculinizing and feminizing surgeries in detail. Finally, this book guides the reader through routine post-operative care as well as recognizing and caring for a patient with urgent and emergent problems. The book is not meant to replace the appropriate instructions given by surgeons - but rather, to present this information in a low-stress, relatable format with practical tips and understandable medical illustrations. This information is a direct duplication of the surgery information found in "A Practical Reference for Transgender and Gender-Nonconforming Adults" - but in the format of a focused, more affordable guidebook., Gender-Affirming Surgeries: Planning through Post-op for Transgender and Gender-Nonconforming Adults is adapted from the more comprehensive A Practical Reference for Transgender and Gender-Nonconforming Adults , stepping the reader chronologically through the long, complicated, often confusing surgery process. You'll learn what major masculinizing and feminizing surgery options and procedures are right for you, including new vaginoplasty techniques, phalloplasty refinements, and even nonbinary options. Find out how to choose a surgeon, pay for surgery, and get healthy beforehand by quitting smoking and losing weight. The book also covers myriad aspects of post-operative care, such as nutrition for better healing, pain management, post-vaginoplasty dilation, recognizing post-operative complications, and when to seek help. Richly illustrated and written in clear, accessible language with deep medical accuracy and compassion, this book is a must-read before your own surgery-and to keep at your bedside afterward. If you're a caregiver, partner, or parent, it will give you confidence as an advocate. If you're a physician, an ARNP or PA, or a mental health professional, you probably did not receive this training in medical school-and here's your chance to learn now.
