What is a "vaginoplasty"?

A vaginoplasty is a surgical procedure that involves repairing, reshaping, or creating the vagina. This procedure is typically performed to repair or reshape the vaginal canal, or to create a vagina for individuals born without one, for various medical or gender affirmation reasons. It may involve using tissue from the patient's own body or artificial materials to create or reshape the vaginal canal and surrounding structures. Vaginoplasty is often part of gender-affirming surgery for transgender women or may be performed for medical reasons, such as after a serious injury or cancer treatment affecting the vagina.
