They can remove the vagina? I thought bottom surgery for trans men just involved sewing the vaginal opening shut.

Which sounds dangerous and potentially life threatening.

I know they get hysterectomies and phalloplasties, but I didn't think doctors did anything to the vaginal canal. I thought I read in some cases, they sew the opening shut. In others, I'm not sure.

I don't want to know too many details. I'm glad the majority of trans men do not opt for any of these surgeries. It sounds like a lot of money and medical risk for poor results.
