Vaginoplasty, Labia Majora Reduction, O-shot, Clitoral Hood Removal

I am 52 years old, recently divorced within the past 3 years and had 4 vaginal deliveries. My vagina was destroyed and I constantly had urinary leakage. I had a hysterectomy in Jan of 2016, so menstrual cycles are gone. After investigating my new found freedom of different sexual partners, I felt like I needed more friction down there. Orgasms weren’t necessarily a problem it was just that I felt I was a gaping hole. I had consulted with my regular OB doctor about my incontinence only to be told, “it’s the aging process and vaginal delivery destruction of my muscles”. I settled for this diagnosis and have found that over the years it has been a common “joke” with other moms about peeing on yourself. I find this unacceptable for myself and not ready to be constantly wearing poise pads! My oversized labia also bothered me. Bathing suits looked obnoxious down there with a huge mass of extra “junk”. After doing extensive research myself, I set up a consultation with Dr Amy Brenner to have an evaluation of what could be done for me. Dr Brenner spent an hour with me which included a full examination and a mirror to make sure I understood my anatomy correctly. My vagina measured a full 4.5 finger in diameter! Almost fist sized! My options were: vaginoplasty which included repair of my perineum, this would give me more friction and reduce my chances of having my vagina collapse as I age. Labiaplasty Majora, reduce the size of my large labia. I had labia minora surgery during my hysterectomy in 2016. My Ob at the time was not a plastic surgeon and left a lot of tags hanging about. My labia minoras extended and hung outside of the majoras making any type of clothing uncomfortable at the time and I just needed some relief. The O-shot ~ this could possibly help my incontinence with my urethra. She also thought a clitoral hood removal would be good because during my labia minora removal, the left over tissue was lopsided and the exposure of my clitoral area was greatly decreased due to the minora removal. I chose to have all procedures done at once and scheduled a surgery date. I thought, go big or go home. This was all completed in her office under close supervision with a medically trained staff. The surgery 6+ hours then I was on my way home with a catheter and ice packs. Follow up and catheter removal 4 days later. There was very little pain during the entire procedure and they kept me extremely comfortable. I was awake the entire time with the exception of a nap here and there. Recovery was the absolute hardest for me as I am very impatient and wanted to get back to my busy lifestyle. The vaginoplasty was a piece of cake but the healing of the labiaplasty took about 6 weeks before I could sit or drive without my donut to sit on. Very tender area!! I am now almost 5 months post-op. I’m going in to Dr Brenner to have a small revision (overgrowth of healing tissue in the perineal area). I’m back to a healthy and active lifestyle and couldn’t be happier! Dr Brenner gave me back my sexual confidence with a few bonuses! (No accidental urinary problems). In my opinion, women’s sexual desires seem to be unwarranted and ignored. Dr Brenner makes it a priority that women can regain a youthful side again after our “mom” phase has passed. I would highly recommend these procedures and Dr Brenner! She has changed my life!
