There is hope (dilation)

I will fully transition after graduation. I understand that there are four dilators, increasing in size. This is kind of scaring me a little

There are four that can be used but Marci skips the first one which is from my understanding very narrow in diameter and would guess it is only for those who have a small vagina. During my after surgery visit they showed me how to use the dilators and started with the middle one which went in 6.5 inches and was a tad sore. I then used the first one for a week then transitioned to the middle one which was painful so next time I used the small one for five minutes, not as bad but still hurt. Then after two days I was perfectly fine with the middle one.

I am going to start the largest one sometime next week, it is very large in diameter and not looking forward to it but must be done if I ever want to be penetrated which I do want to experience but I am more into women so I am not so concerned.

Bottom line is you must dilate three times a day for three months then two times a day till 12 months then thereafter once a day for the rest of my life.

Thank you Karen. I hope to hear more from you about your post srs experiences:)

Karen,

I have been reading your posts. And they are wonderful!! They scare me tremendously, but are wonderful!

Thank you so much for sharing such personal information.

Don't let them scare you too much but look at things I wrote about and understand they do happen so knowing so ahead of time should make it easier.

Karen, you would be a great nurse! Wonder if Dr. Marci Bowers, M.D., would hire you? LOL!

I actually can see myself as a nurse/coach per-say. Even if I could get hired my guess it would take way too long to get to the salary I am at currently which afforded my things like surgery and a comfortable life. Thank for the thought :-)
