Question:

I'd like to know where, how and if I can get a clitoral reconstruction surgery. I am originally from western Africa and have been living in Australia for a few years now. I was circumcised as a little girl and I'm in my mid-twenties now.

I do enjoy sex and can orgasm with much pressure on the spot where the clitoris was removed, however I haven't been able to orgasm during sex or through oral sex. I desire this and I would like to know if there are surgeons you can recommend to me in or outside Australia who are professionals at this.

Answer:

Clitoral tissue is a very specific and sensitive tissue and that is the problem when it comes to clitoral reconstruction. The tissue that has been lost in the circumcision is impossible to replace as there is no similar tissue to use when performing the reconstruction.

Sadly this means that in most cost cases reconstruction is impossible. But consult a gynaecologist or plastic surgeon with an interest in genital reconstruction for an evaluation of how much might be possible in your specific case.
