Impact of Gender-confirming Chest Surgery on Sexual Health: A Prospective Study.
Plast Reconstr Surg Glob Open
August 2024
From the Department of Plastic and Hand Surgery, Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Vaudois, Lausanne, Switzerland.
Background: Few studies have evaluated the improvement of the sexual well-being of transgender patients after breast augmentation or bilateral mastectomy.
