Metoidioplasty is a gender-affirming surgery that creates a small-sized phallus using existing genital tissue. Metoidioplasty is a good option for those with sufficient clitoral growth from being on testosterone hormone replacement therapy. It's a less invasive and more affordable surgery than Phalloplasty. Average penis length from a "Meta" is 1.5-2 inches.

How Metoidioplasty Works: Hormone Replacement Therapy, in the form of Testosterone and Dihydrotestosterone (DHT), gradually enlarges the natal clitoris, which is analogous to the penis. Metoidioplasty surgery involves cutting the surrounding labial tissues, and in some cases the suspensory ligament, to "free up" and reposition the clitoris in a more forward position, to more closely approximate the position of a penis. Complimentary procedures are optional, such as Vaginectomy, Urethral Lenghtening, Scrotoplasty and testicular implants.
