Reply to "FtM (trans guy) seeking experiences with hysterectomy after life with a pouch for familial polyposis"

doug,

thanks for your kind reply.

cjb,

thanks and sorry you had cancer. as time wears on my risk goes up as well. im glad to hear pouch function might improve post hysto. my jpouch is attached to my rectum which was not surgically altered in 2001 when i had my colectomy. i have my sigmoid colon intact, hence a sub total colectomy with ileo sigmoid anastomosis.

anyway, yeah im on the large frame side, being as i said im 5 feet 7 and 230 lbs. so i dont know if he can operate or is willing to robotically. my g..i said he hopes i dont need to be abdominally opened up.

so i wont have a fecal foly cath at wake up post hysto right after or i will be constipated so pooping wont be an issue? also of note i have a 4.9 x 4.0 right ovarian cyst, partically complex per my urologists words on cat scan which may have also partically ruptured.

im looking to have the surgery for a variety of reasons not just as part of dysphoria and/or medical transition.

thanks!
