Will I be 100% nonfunctional? Will It just become much more difficult to get an erection? Will I be able to Produce any sort of sperm? Should I goto a sperm bank and save some sperm for future reproduction with my future lover? I'm Extremely curious because I would still like to have a kid in the future of my Genes.

Thanks all,

As far as I can tell after 4 month of HRT, erections are still possible, pretty much like before HRT. But you should definitely bank sperm if you want to have your own kids.

I can still get erections and have orgasms. However it's near enough completely dry I don't ejaculate thus nor do I produce sperms and am thus sterile this is irriversible. My libido is much lower than it used to be. and I can go months without feeling "that itch" thus it takes alittle longer to get into that mindset as most of the time you can't be bothered.

When you don't have an orgasm for monthsit gets ALOT more intense when you finally do.

Well I've been permanently on HRT for nearly 10 years and I still get unwanted erections quite often which I find disturbing. Sometimes they are locked on and I might need the toilet and it won't go down. It's quite horrendous and not the sort of thing I thought I would have to deal with after 10 years on anti androgens and HRT.

Your balls shrink and you become sterile from 4 to 6 monts on HRT.Which  brings my question : After the SRS do you still have to take hormones?

yes you have to take estrogen or else experience menopause but you can skip out the hormone blockers as your testis no longer need to be suppressed.

You also need oestrogen after SRS because otherwise you get osteoporosis, which is a Bad Thing.

It's very rare for me to get an involuntary erection, but I can make myself erect if I want to be.

73 would be to low for a male. Mine is at 7 and in the relevant range for a woman.

At 3 months of HRT I wans't getting proper erections.

Basically, if you can't get a erection long enough to have  intercourse, you have erectile dysfunction, what seens my case. These days (6 months) it only goes turgid and never goes up. Way back, it used to hurt to have a erection, then the pain subdued and I haven't had full erections since then.

It varies from person to person.

It's a pain to wake up with an erection.Im not on HRT and I  rarely get a super hard one except if I dont see something reaaaly hot

I really don't mind if I get erections - except when they don't fit well into my skimpier knickers ::). That's just uncomfortable - but just physically, not emotionally for me.

Even without an erection I find skimpy knickers uncomfortable, I know that I want it removed but i'd rather it was removed by a surgeon & not my underwear  ;)

In my experience the erections not only became less frequent, but they hurt when they did occur making them nearly untouchable and usless for penetration. But , after three weeks of a steady sexlife things are working again and really even better.

On HRT the first time, after six months my ejaculate became clear and thin.
I assume at that point I was sterile.
Because of financial issuses I had to discontinue hormone therapy after 1 year.
My ejaculate returned to it's former color and consistancy, about 6 months later.
I have no way of knowing if my potency returned, if in fact I had been rendered sterile.
I was able to restart HRT 6 months later, and again my ejaculate became clear and thin, after six months.
At no time, while on HRT, was I hindered in any way from being able to acheive or maintain an erection, whenever I was of a mind to.
The occasions of me "being of a mind to" were considerably more infrequent than before HRT.
Now after 2 cummalative years of hormone therapy and having been recently neutered,
I am still able to acheive and maintain an erection, to climax. Whenever I am of a mind to.
My ejaculate is crystal clear and I am most definitely sterile.


"I have always wanted to have a neighbor just like you,
I've always wanted to live in a neighborhood with you.

So let's make the most of this beautiful day,
Since we're together, we might as well say,
Would you be mine?
Could you be mine?
Won't you be my neighbor?" - Fred Rogers

Mine is 7 too! but I still often get horrible unwanted erections after ten years on HRT.

Last summer I was on Premarin for 2 months and even though my T was at 4 ng/nl I had a libido that was higher than my first time through puberty. I had no control of when things would pop up. I had to switch to estrodiol in order to get things back to normal. Surprise erections just don't work when you are wearing a skirt or dress.
