numbness after 6 months vaginoplasty
From other affirming surgeries I’ve had (my bottom surgery is a month away), I’ve had numbness in areas ranging from a week to a year. Eventually it’s always come back. Talk to your doc or post op team. Very pretty btw
Mine's in 67 days. Woo hoo!🥰🤗
who was your surgeon? That looks amazing.
No expert here but I've read it can take as long as a year for sensation to return, so I don't think you should worry too much. I'd say touch base with your doctor if you want some peace of mind though.
dr stiller in spokane washington, he’s amazing!! and yes i will, my next surgery in in a week for the colon method, i had zero depth in august :)
Howling at the circling like girl we can see it 😂
I think she was indicating the area of numbness
sorryyyy i was just showing where i was numb
Scar tissue is gonna be numb for a bit. I think you can massage it to try and “wake the nerves up” as it were, but I’m not 100% on that.
Holy hell! I had mine 3 days after you and yours is street's ahead of mine 😅
Then again I think I had the most swollen pussy of all time but still lol.
i took anti swelling meds!! that really helped
Any recommendations? I still have plenty of it 😅
omg yes!!! start taking arnica pellets under your tongue!!! my next surgery is in a week and a half and i’m starting on monday to help
Hmmm got a brand in mind?
Wooot! Goodluck 🤗🤗🤗
boiron!!
Been taking for a few days now. To soon to say if it's doing the thing, though it feels like it, but that could be from the massaging.
Thank you for the recommendation.
it takes a little bit but i swear by it!!!
Yes. I have similar area still numb at 7 months.
Hi, i may not be the right person here but did your doc give you a list of things you can expect within like 1 week, 1 month, 2 months, 6 months etc of the surgery. I think that is a thing they are supposed to inform you of
yes he did! they did tell me it can take up to a year to get back to normal, i have heard many different things from other people, im just paranoid hopefully hahah
What technique did you have? (PI or Colon)
i did zero depth in augest and my next is the colon in a week! super excited
FTM here. My labia and outer skin do not have too much sensation as compared to the rest of my genitalia, and certainly not any erotic sensation. I do see your clitoris and vagina have sensation so that's amazing!
Came to say this as well, especially dulled pain sensations for me in that area
If it's the kind of numbness where you can feel the touch, but it's kinda subdued the chance of improvement is lower. If you just feel nothing when touching it there's a better chance you'll regain feeling.
it’s like when i go to the dentist and my face is numb, like i can feel it but not really hahah
L-Acetyl carnitine can help with nerve endings.
thank you! i’ll look into that
I didn't have feeling in my clitoris until well over a year after surgery. I had already given up when the feeling started to return. It can take a long time to get feeling back with these sorts of things apparently. I would try not to worry about it and just hope for the best.
thank you 🤍 i’m glad to hear that you got it back!!!
You look perfect! I can't wait to get mine!
From what I understand, that's pretty normal.
My labia was essentially completely numb until around 5 months. Sensation has been coming back in leaps and pauses since then. I'm at just over 7 months now, and I have feeling everywhere, but it's still a bit muted (I can feel I'm being touched, but not what's touching me if that makes sense).

thank you!!!
It's normal for all surgeries. As the nerves reconnect you should get an itchiness over numbness sensation as nerves reconnect. There is also a percentage likelihood with an surgery that near the scar you will feel numb or have hypersensitive this is the case with all surgeries. Been then case with my ba, and neck spine surgery. I'm guessing it will be the same with my bottom surgery too
Who was your surgeon?
dr stiller in spokane washington!
