* '''Metaoidoplasty with scrotoplasty'''. Surgical creation of a penis and balls, without changing the vagina, if the patient had one. Some such patients choose to get a vaginectomy in another operation, if the patient wants. Other patients are content to have a penis, balls, and vagina at the same time. With or without scrotoplasty, the effect can amount to making the patient's genitals like those of a person who was born with certain kinds of intersex conditions. | * '''Metaoidoplasty with scrotoplasty'''.

* '''Vaginoplasty without penectomy'''. Counterpart to the preceding surgery. Surgical creation of a vagina, without changing the penis. This may or may not include orchiectomy. A patient might choose to remove the testes and penis in another operation, which may include clitoroplasty. Otherwise, the patient may be content to have a penis, testes, and vagina at the same time. This procedure has been called '''androgynoplasty''', '''penile-preservation vaginoplasty''', or '''phallus-preserving vaginoplasty''', and has only recently started to be offered by some providers. | |||
* '''[[Genital nullification]]'''. This can mean a variety of different surgeries, depending on what the person's body was like to begin with, to take away most or all of their reproductive organs and genitals. Some nonbinary people seek this in order to be genderless and sexless. However, one need not have genital nullification in order to be genderless, as gender identity is different than physical sex. | * '''[[Genital nullification]]'''.
