Now, I am DEFINITELY a long way off from any sort of bottom surgery, so I shouldn't even be thinking about it right now, but nevertheless I do have questions.
1) How painful is it supposed to be (if you've had this surgery done it would be helpful if you could share your experience but you don't have to) on a scale of 1-10, 10 being extremely painul?
2) Would it function like a normal guy's dick? Would penetration be possible? Would it look normal? Would you still have to wear a packer? Could you pee standing up?
3) About how expensive is it? Are surgeons easy to find or do you have to go out of country?
4) How long does it take to heal from the surgery?
5) In your opinion is this the best surgery out there currently? If not, which one and why?
6) How "promising" are the results? I have heard many surgerie's results are not very promising. Does that include this one? How long do you think it will take before we DO see some promising results if we don't have them already?
Again, sorry for all these questions. I feel like I should know as much as possible though if this is who I want to be some day. Also apologies if you feel that the questions are "inappropriate" and awkward for you to answer. Thanks for your time, I really appreciate it guys.
