Clitoropexy and Clitoral Hood Reduction

 

This procedure repositions the protruding clitoris and reduces the length and projection of the clitoral hood. It is also indicated in the woman with mild clitoral enlargement who does not want a formal clitoris reduction.

 

Some women are bothered by the size of the clitoral hood and the clitoris shaft or head. The hood may protrude too much causing the woman to be self-conscious or irritated. She may feel that the protruding hood and clitoris cause a bulge in her clothing or the appearance of a small penis.

 

In order to resolve this situation, we make a horizontal incision on the lower clitoral hood and setback the clitoris slightly higher with sutures (clitoropexy). The pulling up and moving in of the head of the clitoris eliminates the protrusion and allows us to remove some of the hood skin, which becomes shorter and no longer protrudes. There is no risk of sensation change or nerve injury.

 

The clitoropexy can be done alone or in combination with other procedures.
