Hey gang,

I'm in the United States, for context.

I know somebody who recently moved from California to Oregon to get what I assume is phalloplasty. I know that there are two options for trans masculine people.

I'm confused as to why that person moved because California is also a pretty good state for trans people, but I guess it depends on what kind of trans you are. I admit, having to build a phallus for someone is a pretty complicated process. I'm not considering bottom surgery so I never looked at quality in terms of state for that process.

I'm very interested in other people's take on this. Even though I'm not considering bottom surgery now, I might consider it in the future. I'm currently in Minnesota, considering moving to Pennsylvania at some point. So I guess it would be good to go over terms of quality and eligible procedures for bottom surgery by state.

What say you?

Tis a little confusing? Cali makes most of the surgeries covered here, some covered with just a ten dollar copay. Kaiser has really good trans care and other places are aiming to actually compete with them. That said of the friends I have in Oregon (ftm and mtf) the results are pretty darn good as well.
