[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One year after giving birth, im really not happy with how things now look down there.  Anyone feel the same?

Dr recommendations in the DMV? [/quote]

Hi! First of all, please ignore the peanut gallery on this thread. Not sure who wouldn’t look — those women are the nuts, in my mind.

As someone else noted, pregnancy can cause vulvar changes, but vaginal delivery can *really* wreck havoc on your labia. (My left labia minora was partially torn off during delivery — folks, just another reason to strongly consider a planned c section.) Moreover, if you delivered vaginally, you almost certainly have some pelvic organ prolapse. While my labia don’t bother me too much, the muscle tearing/sagging around the vestibule that occurred after vaginal delivery really bothered me and pushed me to consider surgical repair.

I met with several urogyns around the DMV (including a cosmetic urogyn in Virginia) but ultimately wasn’t comfortable pursuing surgery locally. I will travel when I ultimately get a repair (perineoplasty, possibly a little labia clean up to even the sides out, and rectocele repair, possibly with a levatorplasty). Dr. Miklos at Miklos and Moore in Atlanta comes highly recommended— I am waiting to see outcomes of several friends who have surgeries planned with him in the next year. One thing to note — I would strongly suggest making sure your family is complete before surgery, and of course having a planned c section if you were to get pregnant after surgery.
