Title: once in a lifetime period?

when a mtf receives srs, does it feel like a period after the surgery. I heard they give you pads and stuff

Well as someone who for some unexplained reason seems to have the occasional slight quasi periodic bleed I would say no, not exactly.

Its close - but not the same. There is a fair bit of blood involved after SRS but it doesn't have that weird smell, gloopy consistency and deep red colour of menstrual blood.

Haha.  No, there are no periods for MtF.  The only reason we gets pads is because there is icky discharge and other bleeding that occurs after the surgery.  This discharge and bleeding goes away sometime after surgery.  Exactly when it goes away depends on how well you heal.  Believe me, it is not fun to be on pads.

Nothing like a period women have many more symptoms then just discharge too

pads are a real pain not something to look forward to
