Four weeks ago I had my surgery and recovery been going really well. Swelling gotten a lot less, I got a depth of 6.5 inches, no pain with dilating and no complications. At the moment I just dilate, keep it all clean and try to touch it as little as possible. Also, my inner lips are stll very swollen. So swollen I never managed to see what hides under it unless I would, just like the doctor, just push the lips aside.. Which I still feel a bit frightened to do so.

Since a week or so I feel horny as fudge x_x. Dilating can give pleasure. Because of the prostate I assume? I felt itches before which felt like the sensetive part of my penis was itching which is now the clit and under the swollen lips I feel a pain sensation every now and then but I am not sure exactly where.

I am good in talking myself into stressful 'what if' thoughts. Which now is; am I able to orgasm? But my question is, should that be a concern right now? I am not sure where my clit even is. I try to press on the lips but since those are so swollen, I don't really feel much under it and I don't want to put pressure. Also at the clitirol hood a small crust has formed which sensation wise does not help at the moment either. My doctor has seen me yesterday and did tell me the recovery looked very well and that (didn't mention these thoughts) I got nothing to worry about. But my mind likes to play games.

My question tho is, is it valid to be worried a month post op? Or should I stop trying to poke around, let it heal completely and start playing then?

I never thought of orgasms as an issue because it is such a mental thing. Some can even orgasm without a touch. But now that there isn't a stick to simply stroke for a release I do notice that I am worrying.. Which I think is misplaced but my mind sometimes doesn't agree. That is why I wanted to write my thoughts down to hopefully hear yours on this :p.

Or maybe it is also a bit of sexual frustration. There are moments where I feel a bit if a 'mrmm nice' feeling but.. I got no idea what that may be. Just as well could be that I am scratching a nice itch x_X.

Nerves may take over a year to reconnect so expect a bunch more itching. It may take 3 or 4 months for sexual sensation and depending on how you heal, it can take up to a year for all the swelling to go away. The process can't be rushed so you are best not to worry about it.

Your clitoris was made with the glans of the penis and that swelling with sexual thoughts may be what you are feeling when you dilate. Most everything important is down there somewhere but it has been rearrange.

Suporn recommends to not have sexual thoughts the first few weeks. Like 6 weeks ...

Well healing is individual ...

some people have used it some have waited a few weeks more.

If you distract yourself and avoid sexual thoughts maybe you can hold on for a few weeks more.

girl it took me months to get all the nerves connected and feel good enough to orgasm.

even though my recovery was really fast, this nerves thing takes some more time..

Remember everyone heals at different rates, there is not hard and fast rule. after X number of days you will be able to orgasm.

I dunno when I was able to orgasm, as I was too scared to mess down there at first. I got some sensation down there after about a month.. It was only after 3 months when I attempted to masturbate. I bought a vibrator and I managed an orgasm. But as time went on,  my orgasms got better.. At 6 months post op I lost my virginity as a woman and that orgasm was amazing.

I'm 8 weeks post op and my swelling ...what little I had is now minimal.. I get to see and examine myself.   But still don't want to use any force..just gentle touches and ot feels great...no orgasmn yet but I'm in no rush . I know it's there
When we first start our journey the perception and moral values all dramatically change in wonderment. As we evolve further it all becomes normal again but the journey has changed us forever.

I had the same worries as you about would I be able to orgasm. It took me seven months to get to my first orgasm. You have to relearn how your body works and it needs to rewire. For awhile after my 1st post op orgasm I was counting them. A year out now I have officially lost count! It definitely takes more mental concentration and it's a slow build up for me. When you are ready be sure and give yourself ample time.

It's tough.  It's tough, especially if you're the kind of person who wasn't overly concern with sexual gratification to begin with.  At first I kind of hated it, I had that feeling of clitoral swelling when I got aroused, but I also get some lube every once in a while if something manages to really turn me on.  Have tried to masturbate, use the magic wand, all that, and it just doesn't work for me, and yet - I've had powerful orgasms in my sleep, during dreams (really sexual dreams, some in which I have a vagina, others in which I'm banging other girls with a dick).

The psychosexual landscape of a TG person is inherently bizarre, or maybe that's just me.

I guess what I'm trying to say is, don't worry about it so much.  There's a chance you may never have an orgasm again.  I haven't had a conscious orgasm in four years or more.  It is what it is.  The neo-vag is a hard thing to get used to, and a pain in the ass to maintain.  At some point I guess you just have to practice self-acceptance, because despite what we wanted to believe in the beginning, we're never going to come out of that magical cocoon as a perfect woman.

The reality of our physical existence is that we're often bulky, ungainly bodies that have been skillfully carved up into a shape that drives us less insane.  That's just it.  We can't dwell on what we don't have or never will have, we just have to accept what we've got and find our own truth.  Even after surgery, after SRS, FFS, HRT, years and years of therapy, we might get to the other side and still not know who the hell we are or what we actually want - the woman thing will be resolved, we'll be comfy in that.  But then it's like the soldier coming home from war looking around and going 'now what?'

After GRS in most cases the prostate is still in place. It would be difficult to remove. Usually surgeons leave it in place and it remains where the gspot is in cis females. It consists of similar tissue like glands in cis women and is like the gspot in women hooked up by a second neuronal pathway seperate from the clit.
Usually people need to be aroused for this spot to be really pleasurable.
It might be an idea to look for stimulation of this spot. There are bent dildos and vibrators available for this purpose.
Here is a quite rare description because like in cis women this spot might be elusive first ...

Here is a confirmation of a surgeon:

"The second pathway is g-spot/prostate. ..."

I appreciate your honesty, but do hope where I have to learn more self acceptance that you become more positive. Although I can esspecially relate with your soldier coming home point.

Now 2 months after SRS I yet have to feel comfortable enough to explore. I do feel it is there but any touch which feels close, feels more like a sting than pleasurable. At least there is feeling there, I will see when more comes :p.
