Breakthrough gel aims to restore feeling in Gender-Affirming surgery
NCT ID NCT05897086
Summary
This study is testing if a special gel called polyethylene glycol (PEG) can help nerves heal better after phalloplasty surgery. The goal is to improve both touch and sexual sensation in the newly created penis (neophallus) for transgender men. Researchers will compare the gel-assisted nerve repair to the standard surgical technique in 30 participants to see which leads to better sensory recovery and quality of life.
