u/Replacement-123

Hi I'm 20 and I'm about to get my surgery done this coming July. I'm absolutely terrified but it's long overdue I've felt with a lot of uncomfortably and sometimes pain for years and years.

What I want to ask is is there anything I should know? Any insider information? I've asked the doctor obviously but I felt like people who have been through it would know more. I'm super anxious and unsure what to expect.

So far I've planned some baggy especially around the crotch pants and am gonna get tampons set aside (I'm a pad girl but I was advised against it). I'm super anxious any advice would be so helpful
