I had bottom surgery with the Suporn Clinic almost 18 months ago and wow what an experience. Please note this is all for my own experience and I can't speak for anyone else. Surgery went brilliantly and honestly recovery was a wash of ups and downs. Dilation was honestly awful for me for the first 6 months I hated the routine and the pain and everything. Sex was intresting and honestly since there no manual it's just been wild figuring out everything. I get wet and it all works honestly still freaking suprised. Post op and during my recovery I am 6.5inch internally but let me tell you she alot more forgiving then I realised and size has never been an issue no matter what way you size up. Everyday am still learning but mostly as it stand am only dilatingaybe every 2 weeks and I am having 0 issues. I feel I might go for revision in a few years depending on my financial situation and stuff but honestly there almost nothing I'd change other then a urethral shorting but we shall see what Dr Bank says. As for hygiene douching was easy and simple but I rarely do it now I keep clean of course and I clean myself. I should say by regularly douching I don't routinely do it as much as I did during recovery and I find in terms of smell and everything she always on point. My pee did seem to smell different after surgery but that honestly could just be my mind playing tricks on me. Am I glad I healed yes would I go through that again properly but honestly it was a rough road. Hard to think i did it. Yes my body changed i lost weight put on weight, put on more weight, lost some again ppstly all through work and life style but yer its been wild. If you got any questions just ask.
Going to Banks is my dream! Everyone who went says how awful dilating by their schedule is, kinda makes me scared. But you saying it was all worth it, makes me hopeful.
Tell me how was their pain managment right after the surgery, did you feel well taken cared of? And please tell me how was the trip home? That part also scares me.
Hey yes so for me the pain management was fantasic I mean its going to be uncomfortable and everyone pain tolerance is different but I had no issues walking ok soke of it was slow but I was walking getting home was fine sore but overall manageable
Wonderful, thank you. How hard was getting the date? Was it on your first try?
I booked mine rather far in advance and would of been happy with any of the dates i picked but I got my first date I can't remember how far in advance I booked it but I was super prepare had my deposite and all pre med stuff ready before I booked anything
Is you getting wet esp. a response to sexual stimuli or is it more a regular discharge? Would you know what tissue was used for this to happen? Thank you :)
Of course while there is some natural discharge that happens time to time. I also get wet when aroused and sexuallky stimulated it varies on my mood and arousal like anyone else tbh as for what was used I am unsure off the top off my head I'd have to look at my booklet but I had the suporn method
I'm also curious! Also, which type of SRS did you go with?
Of course I had the suporn method done by Dr Banks at the suporn clinic
Thank you so much for answering! Do you happen to know the differences between the Suporn method and other methods?
My pee smells different as well. I just can’t figure out why. 🤷🏻♀️
It's weird right

That’s the thing though, I had an orchi 3 years ago and have been on hormones 6 years. It’s completely related to the surgery. 🤷🏻♀️
Super intresing I knew it be from surgery but never thought the impact would be that noticeable tbh
What do you mean by urethral shortening? How do you know its shortened? Do you feel any discomfort, pain or some sort of "urinary incontinence" related to it?
It's shorter because they cut away alot of it to make the new urethra but they leave it a little long incase of any complications it's not overly long but since I had no complications they can easily shorten it some more and it is something I'd like. But no there no pain or discomfort or incontinence just they leave it a little longer incase of any complications
Omg sorry I missunderstood your quote up there, I thought he gave you a shorter urethra then the usual and I was like "how come? Hows he gonna make it longer again?" Haha now longer urethra happens to most results but didnt know he'd opt for safety mesures. Also (now going on the right direction) do you feel like it gets bigger/bulgier when in arousal?
Well I mean tbh nothing gets bigger or bulgier when aroused well not in the way it used to my clit when am very aroused swells and I do get wet when aroused tho this varies on my mood and mindset too.

Obviously you'll be nervous and scared it's only natural and alll surgery carries risk but honestly your in sage hands it becomes a wee community while your there
This is so me right now, but with FFS, like every waking moment, its on my mind, and I really trying to relax, but it's impossible.
Am I glad I healed yes would I go through that again properly but honestly it was a rough road.
Sorry to hear you had a rough road!
If you are up for sharing, I am curious, how many times did you apply to the Suporn lottery before receiving a surgery date. I have tried three times with no luck and am just trying to get an idea of how long it has taken for others. Thanks much.
Thank you loads for the insights! ☺️
Always and thanks
Oh one more question, did you have any hair removal before SRS? Apparently they don't recommend it.
They don't and I have a little laser on my perineum as the clinic said that be ok but hobestly it's not needed you won't get any hair in the vaginal canals I do have like 4 hairs inside just before the main entrance thay was explained to me and tbh there super thin and light I just yank them out and they hardly come back and you can't really feel them and no partners ever noticed
Amazing, thank you.
I've been looking at banks for a couple years now and I feel like I have asked every question I can possibly ask. So how about this, what's something who has done their research might still forget to think about? Preparation for trip? Help/supplies once back home? Etc?
Of course we'll I'd say Take one suitcase empty to bring stuff back, before you leave for Thailand start stocking up on dilation supplies condoms, lube and so on. Whatever you think you need for recovery maybe double it and then some.
What’s the doctors full name and website please
It's the Suporn Clinic Thailand and my doctor was Dr banks its should be suoer easy to find
Do u know if they take insurance. I have a really good insurance from Amazon
I honestly don't know as am from the UK and I payed in full as I didn't have any insurances, but I assume they would take insurances.
Thanks very much for posting your experience! I'm also from the UK and seeing Dr. Bank in September. Just wondering how did you find the flight(s) back? Did you go in economy class or higher so you could lie back? Did you notice any immediate effects on your healing/recovery after travelling?
