Earlier today I had a follow up call with my surgeon for GCS. We both agreed that limited depth vaginoplasty is the way to go, given my Crohn’s history, and being in an active flare, where I go to the bathroom 5-8 times a FREAKING night!!

I will be in the hospital for one night, instead of the three originally stated. I will still be in PA for around 10 days. The surgery itself will not be that much shorter. Only by half an hour, the surgeon said. After surgery, my bed rest will be four weeks instead of six.

All in all, this conversation made me really happy, and inspired confidence that my surgeon is on my side, and was willing to talk about my concerns.
