Disharge post-vaginoplasty

Based on the quality of the discharge it may in fact be normal and temporary at this point. If you feel and know your surgeon has much experience with this procedure then it is usually best to trust him/her. Otherwise I would recommend getting a direct hands on second opinion to clarify and, if nothing else, ease your conscious. Best of luck...RAS

Drainage after surgery

From the description of the drainage, it sounds like it may be normal. I would ask that you follow up closely with your surgeon until everything has healed completely. If you are really getting worried and not confident in your surgeon's advice, go and see another doctor for another opinion.

Sounds like you had a small wound separation that is healing by secondary intention. Confirm this with your surgeon. The wound should be periodically photographed or measured if you wish reassurance that it is healing. I like to use topical anesthetic (e.g. benzocaine) if the wound is tender or painful. Consider applying Aquaphor or Bacitracin daily or twice daily, protecting the area and absorbing drainage with pads, and DEFINITELY check with your doctor to be sure... more

Post Vaginoplasty Discharge

Although most discharge is gone by 6 weeks it can continue this late. Initially the discharge may be bloody but can become clear ( as you describe) or creamy white if you get a yeast infection ( especially if you took antibiotics after the surgery). I would not worry at this point but if it continues do get a second opinion as already suggested.
