Luckily you don't "feel" anything as long as you have a good anesthesiologist. ;)

No, but seriously, waking up and seeing my new bandaged parts was completely life-altering. I will never be able to experience childbirth and know what that is like, but I think that seeing my new vagina was my own little moment comparable to holding a newborn baby for the first time. When I adopt a baby of my own though, I'm sure that feeling will surpass it. :)

To answer the question in a more specific way.
After srs you feel woman.
Transition is the past now, you have just passed the finishline after a long marathon.

I was feeling a woman my entire life but after srs I really was a woman with the womanly anatomy bits.
No one will believe me but it makes such a big different, I can't really explain but everyone who had srs knows excactly what I mean.
One will see the world in a totally different perspective.

hmmm.......what does SRS feel like?  well, for one, there is very little physical pain.  I had a reaction to the adhesive holding my packing in and my butt cheeks were on fire for 5 days.  you wake up post op with about 10ft of packing and a catheter in place.  I was up and walking within 24 hrs of surgery, not much though.  the appearance (at first) is the most disgustingly beautiful thing you've ever seen.  there's alot of swelling the first few days so it looks more like a camels toe than anything.
for me, my first "real" sensation was when I had my first dilation routine.  just a little painful, but very satisfying! 
mentally, nothing but pure joy.  I did experience a bit of depression about 5-6 weeks post op that lasted a few weeks.  all of a sudden, this goal I've been trying to reach for such a long time had been accomplished, then I had a void.

Amelia, I saw Dr. Sanguan Kunaporn in Phucket Thailand. The surgical cost was 12,000, plus 1,258 for the ticket and some spending money for fun and a room for a month. You should be able to do it all for under 15K Dr Sanguan took skin grafts from both of my inner thighs to line my vagina, along with some scrotal tissue and the perineum flap. At four months the scars from the donor sites are still visible but are fading nicely. I'm very pleased with both him and his staff. His approach to treating patients comes from his Buddhist beliefs and he treats his patients like a member of his family. Which I found not only pleasing but very calming, as I have a general fear of doctors and surgery. So this aspect of his nature helped me a great deal. I see an OBGYN for my hormones and he saw me to re-evaluate my hormone dosage and during the exam he noted that Dr. Sanguan's work was the best he'd seen from Thailand, and that it rivaled the best work he'd seen done here in the states. He called his technique ingenious and was VERY impressed, especially so soon after surgery. One month post-op. He even asked his nurse Karen to look  and all she could say was WOW, I bet you're going to be so happy when you finally heal. Dr Sanguan's staff of nurses are just wonderful people. We socialized and interacted a great deal during my stay. Before leaving, we had a bit of a party. I love Asian food, especially spicy Thai food, and I was given a take out menu from one of the nurses and ordered a huge sushi platter and we sat around eating sushi and meals the nurses brought from home. It was a very rewarding experience in and of itself. I'm now friends with many of the nurses on Facebook and we still chat every now and then, and they want to know when I'm going back to Thailand.

I would like to add that today is the 4 month anniversary of my surgery, and I'm very very pleased with both the physical and mental results. I'm able to climax which is great, and from talking to other post-ops I seemed to have healed very rapidly in that regard. I believe this is both in part to Dr Sanguan's technique, and me being a fast healer. Dr. Sanguan took note of this during my stay and said we were a good team :)  I do however plan to have a 2nd surgery sometime in the following year to deepen my vagina as I'm just over 5 inches deep and my fiance is rather well endowed. I had no problems accommodating his girth at the three month mark when we were able to have sex, but only just over half of his length. I love Norm with all my heart and want to be able to receive all of him when we make love. Even though he says it's not necessary, I plan on having the revision to deepen my vagina. I have not decided on whether I'll go with another full thickness graft or a sigmoid graft to to add more depth. Both should add about the same amount of depth, about another 3 inches. It's really a question of costs and down time for healing as the sigmoid graft is more invasive than a regular graft.

I am wondering what it actually feels like to have srs. Like the physical/mental sensations.

Kia Ora Elle,

::) No doubt very painful if one is awake...However I was asleep at the time so it's no good asking me  ;) ;D

::) Oh wait ! Are you talking in a sexual experience sense ? In this case I still wouldn't know...

All aspects.  Like how does it affect you mentally.
It felt painful and numbness at first, a sureal moment, but as I got use to my new vagina and my boyfriend reaction at the time, ''wow nice pussy'' lol I felt finally complete as a woman, everyday got better as I healed, after srs I felt I was now completely all woman.

If your going thru hell, just keep going.

The most interesting feeling occurred at post op day 7 when they put me in the stirrups and proceeded to extract all manner of detritus and manipulate stuff and stick metal things in there.......woohoo!!!
