Effects of HRT on genitals


Amelia3

Recommended Posts

Hello. My name is Amelia, I'm 17 years old and right now I'm on my way to find a therapist and start HRT. I have researched lots of information, but there's still one. It's a bit embarrassing for me. I'm about "that thing" between, well, legs. Somehow I'm very worried about what will be with it. The only information I found is that it could not erect and will stop produce a "male genetical liquid" when you started HRT. But what about minutiaes like for example size, sensitivity, structure, behavior, and so on? I would like to know it in advance, so I will know what to expect and won't panic.

Hey Amelia! The bad news is that we're all different. I can tell you that personally, I experienced a lack of spontaneous erections (thank the Goddess). I could still get aroused if I wanted and bring myself to orgasm when the mood stuck. It struck less often. More like once or twice a week instead of the "Right now would be good" that I'd been dealing with since puberty. While I didn't measure output, it looked about the same as it did pre-HRT. I'd been on HRT for about a year and a half when I fully transitioned and had my vaginoplasty. I did not lose sexual function at any point during that time.

 

I can't speak for "male fluid viability" if you were looking to freeze a sample though. I had a vasectomy WAY back in 1994. I'm told that viability suffers as the testes shrink. I didn't suffer from much of that either. I guess they got a little smaller, but not enough that you'd notice unless you were really familiar with them.

 

Size didn't change, but I understand that it can if you don't have erections frequently enough. Part of the reason that I had GCS as quickly as I could manage was that I wanted the doctor to have as much tissue to work with as possible. There are girls here who were on HRT longer than I was before GCS who I'm sure would tell different stories.

 

Hugs!

After three years on estrogen I still get erections but they are less frequent and my sex drive has gone down. I still had ejaculate for a few months after starting estrogen but it was clear instead of white. Now I have almost no ejaculate.

What eventually kick started my transition was being my Testosterone had all gone! I was told I had less than a newborn baby girl. I was put on Testosterone injections and was told I would feel like a new man. I left the doctors and went and sat in my car. I cried for the first time in years. I didn't want to be a man! I never had the jabs, and so I've become quite androgynous. I've grown breasts and my muscle turned to flab. I want Estrogen, but some other health issues keep sending me to the back of the queue. 

 

Anyway, I do have shrinkage and haven't had an erection in twelve months. Or even felt the need to get one, however, May 7th 2019 (yes, I keep a diary), I had a terrible pain inside my groin. I had severe horniness- I wanted something in me. hard to explain and due to the lack of erection, felt like I could do nothing about it. My testicles had pins and needles. it was painful. But after some *cough. Self care, I shot a load. It felt like a build up, and it hasn't happened since. It was confusing and awkward.

 

Not sure if its the lack of hormones, or my Diabetes, but I've lost 4cm in height and my feet shrank a full size in the past four years. Sadly, my doctor refuses to talk about such things so I've never found out what and why? Currently saving to speak with a specialist.

I'm about 2.5 in to hormones. I can still manage to get a erection, and when I want to for now. Insted of it doing its own thing. I'm still doing the business some times once a day, or every two to three days. It depends on my mood. Compared to a male sex drive. My current sex drive is more mood based. If I'm happy sure why not. If I'm not super happy. Its a no go. Unlike my male one. I swear as a man. I probably could have gotten off after being fired from a job, given divorce papers, and my dad dying all in one day.

      Bob had the night off from teaching kara-tay and they planned to spend a lot of it at Cabaret.   Once in, Taylor waited for her man to park and looked around.  There was a sign "Mary, Paul and Peter LIVE tonight" and, sure enough, three microphones were standing in the open area.  A new hostess came up to her. "Are you alone?" "Oh, no.  He's coming." Taylor was led to a table. Bob was there in a minute and managed to get in there and seat her.  She smiled. "The act will be along in a few minutes. And Congratulations! I am SO EXCITED!!" Taylor responded to his look. "I got promoted." "To what?" "Head of Marketing." "You're kidding." "Nope.  It seems the Board finally woke up to the fact that the China cash cow may come to an end and they need to do something. Did you know that the VPs on up all get over a million dollars in compensation without really doing anything?" "No." "I am supposed to figure out how to re-energize over thirty acres of factory that have laid idle for forty years or more." "Why don't they do it?" She whispered,"the head of production is the son of the previous head of production. He has never produced anything."  She explained that everything was made in China and exported back to the US and sold under different brand names. "How am I going to find someone?" He smiled. "Congratulations. Sounds like a problem.  Hey, today we were talking about problems at our Philly plant.  One, it was built before World War 2. Second the city and state are tightening regulations and the tax structure is adverse.  Third, we get protestors every day, some of whom break into the factory.  People are talking about relocating." "We are forty miles from an interstate." "That is a plus.  Makes it harder for protestors to find us if we moved here." "You are really thinking that?" "I am, right now. I can't speak for the company.  I know there is a rail line." "Spur, actually, with several sidings.  The buildings are in good shape." "Do you have about five acres we could look at? How about if I take some pictures and send them off?" "Great.  And protestors would not be tolerated in Millville.  The factory area once upon a time was the main employer and people are very protective." Two weeks later she was in Philadelphia with Gibson and a few others.  The deal was signed and by end of summer ten acres, with an option on another ten, were being upgraded and equipment was coming in by rail. Not five, but ten.  She got a $20,000 bonus out of the blue.  The company was flush with Chinese cash that they didn't know what to do with. She was developing plans. But back to dinner.  "Did I tell you what they are paying me?" "No." She told him. "That is more than I am making." "You don't sound happy." "It takes some getting used to.  You are Management and Croesus combined." "Yeah. Is this a problem?" "No.  As I said, it takes some getting used to."  The musicians arrived and were introduced: three local teenagers in Peter Paul and Mary clothing and wigs like it was the 60s.  They began singing. "They are good," she said. "They are lip-synching." "They are good at lip-synching." They listened for a while. "Work is going to be intense for a while." "I'll bet." "I won't be able to talk to you about some of it." "I bet." They had a good evening.   The high point for Bob was that she let him put his hand on hers.  The high point for her was Bob did not seem threatened by her now being Management and making more than he did with a Masters. She didn't tell him she was likely to be in on the distribution of money the Chinese sent every year to keep them fat and happy.  But she had to finish up that report, so the evening ended early.  He drove her home, checked her apartment for people and again walked away hearing her lock the door three times.  She didn't say it, but he knew she was going to have a long talk with her therapist as well.   Her therapist was a night owl.

      I sit back and think, am I this person? I definitely argue, but with the willingness to alter my opinion if I find that my information is lacking. So, no? I also don't go pointing fingers in faces like a crazed person, usually I am the one to argue with that kind of person; typically because they can't see past emotion and have little concern for actual facts. Sometimes it's sport that I do this (ENTP, baby!), but usually it comes from a place of trying to inform and shift opinion--or at least get them to actually obtain facts or get their facts from objective sources.

      Thank you Vidanjali that is so great to hear. I'm glad the joy comes across even though the subjects are dark, and especially that my voice is pretty! This was really a breakthrough for me, and I revelled in the entire process. Never had creating music been so effortless from start to finish.

      The thoughts and suggestions above are certainly excellent!  I might also suggest that you continue to reach out to the trans community where your feelings are understood through experience.  I have found that helpful.  The is especially true when i try to help another in distress, not to look for a fellow sufferer but to help another find a path to self acceptance and peace.  Funny how helping another can pull me out of my own funk. We are here to help as we can.  Remember you are not alone in your feelings.   Hugs,   Charlize
    • Vidanjali
      This is great, Betty. Your voice is so pretty and soothing. I listened to both tracks on your channel. The messages are clear and there is a very effective tone for the content you are portraying as it neither sounds antagonistic nor overtly facetious, but rather empowered and joyful.
