About
This study is being done to find out more about the experience women have with vaginal reconstruction. We hope to learn about their quality of life, sexual function, and body image. We would like to find out how happy women are with surgery. We also want to know what things should be changed or improved. Since you have had this surgery, we would like to ask you to take part in an interview.
