In this episode, VP of the APTA Connecticut Chapter, Dr Stephanie Weyrauch, CEO of Inclusive Care, Dr Krystyna Holland, and Obstetrics and Gynecology faculty member at Denver Health, Dr Jennifer Hyer, talk about bottom surgery and gender-affirming care.

Today, we talk about vaginoplasty complications, pelvic floor goals post-vaginoplasty surgeries, and setting post-operative expectations. What are the barriers that trans people face when trying to access gender-affirming healthcare?

Hear about pre-operative education, hysterectomy versus vaginoplasty outcomes, trauma-informed care, and hear their advice to healthcare providers, all on today’s episode of The Healthy, Wealthy & Smart Podcast.

 

Key Takeaways

  • “You only have one time in your life to be post-op.”
  • “The only way out of this is through.”
  • “Give yourself grace, because you need to heal.”
  • “Trauma-informed care is a commitment to continuing to try to reduce our own propensity for perpetuating harm.”
  • “Once you start, you’re going to see a lot of folks that need this care.”
  • “Be honest about who you can help and what feels good for you.”
  • “Not everyone currently is a safe person for trans and non-binary people, and that’s okay. We are not all for everybody.”
  • “We are seeing patients who are gender-diverse, and we need to be able to provide good care to people.”
  • “If you don’t change your environment, it’ll change you.”
  • “The hard work is always worth it.”
