Finally, this book guides the reader through routine post-operative care as well as recognizing and caring for a patient with urgent and emergent problems. The book is not meant to replace the appropriate instructions given by surgeons - but rather, to present this information in a low-stress, relatable format with practical tips and understandable medical illustrations. This information is a direct duplication of the surgery information found in "A Practical Reference for Transgender and Gender-Nonconforming Adults" - but in the format of a focused, more affordable guidebook.
