Our study's findings are encouraging for individuals considering feminizing genital surgery, as 90% of the transgender women in our cohort reported an ability to orgasm within 6 months of surgery. This study adds to the growing body of literature that can help patients make informed decisions and set realistic expectations for their gender-affirming surgical outcomes.
