Let's talk about it...and there is no shame whatsoever. This video is geared more towards speaking about my surgery experience and showing results, while I briefly touch on non-surgery solutions, and provide tips in general on what to do and not to do (before and after the surgery, or even whether you should decide to do it or not).

If you want more generic information on gyno itself, I will make more videos, so stay tuned and subscribe to be notified! I also will make a video on how to properly choose a surgeon.
