Growth size - TGMan720 - 07-13-2019

I want to know where to find the information about how much growth needs to happen before you consider a simple meta? It seems to me the more growth you have the better the results. Is there a minimum size requirement?

Thanks

Good question! Most surgeons require 2 years on T before Metoidioplasty, to maximize growth. I don't know that there's a minimum size requirement, but if one presented with little workable tissue after 2 years on T, the surgeon should highlight that results may not meet goals.
