I am exactly in the same position (66 year old but in rather good shape). I´ve been in transition for 3-4 years now interrupted by my prostate cancer (surgery one year ago) with a surgery where everything was "taken out". Today I am totally ok, my PSA is zero and I have very little leakage. But anyway I am worried for SRS (which is planned late this Year). No one seems to know what might happen. As You point out the vaginal depth will be short (but the surgeon can´t say any details). What I am afraid of is other side effects no one knows about and therefore can´t tell me. What do I have to be afraid of? Do You have any good advice? I does´nt seem to be a good idea not to perform the surgery but on the other hand You are responsible Yourself of Your health (in the end)?<br /> Cheers,<br /> Petra</p> Hello,
