Post by: lovelessheart on August 23, 2015, 07:29:46 PM
 :embarrassed: 

2 months post op and I'm pissed off.
Due to the fact everything is numb.. I can't and don't know how to orgasm. That is, if I can.  Its so frustrating!

How did you deal with this time? Was there something u did to get you there?

2 months is still a bit early. Give it time, I didn't have mine until 4-5 months after.

I don't know if you are there yet but you have a woman's body and things work different than they did before. You first need to get turned on or sexually excited. When you are in that state, your whole body will become sensitive and it will be like a glow. Once turned on, the state will remain unlike the fading nature it took when you were a male. After that you work on the orgasm part and I really can't help you much there because of differences in our surgery and the fact in all these years I really haven't played with it.

Your surgery is still pretty new and I felt nerves reconnecting for a couple of years after SRS. It shouldn't take that long for a sexual experience but a couple of months may be a bit on the short side as you may still have some swelling that hasn't gone down yet. Others with more current surgeries and much more sexual experience may be able to tell you more.

2 months is about when I got curious and really wanted to know how it felt. It just wouldn't work likely because of unconnected nerve tissue.

It is interesting what Dena said about being turned on because I've not been which likely explains why apart from the time I made it work as a test nothing has happened. If you are still numb then it is unlikely to work whatever you try but in another month if the numbness has gone you could try watching some porn or have your partner if you have one touch you in intimate places.

Hope it happens soon for you

Hugs

Maybe I better explain the turned on part a bit. I had a couple of years of sleepless nights and one night I was laying there thinking I wasn't going to get anymore sleep for a while and I started thinking about my body being caressed by somebody else. A warm pleasant feeling came over my entire body. The feeling remained for about half an hour when I started to worry that I wouldn't get any more sleep if the feeling remained. I was able to shut it off but for the next couple of days I had to walk around carefully because I felt the feeling might come back again if I moved wrong.

I'm at 3 months, now started to get curious at 2 months though. I didn't seem to have numbness though, you can google guides on how to do it and different types of orgasm. It's more about mood than anything else like Dena said.

have you had it happen in a dream yet?

After I had it in a dream I bought a couple vibraters and a week or two of practice later it happened. The good the about it is it feels good for  a very long time even if you don't achieve orgasm.

Basically get in the mood, watch porn, think about riding a horse with prince charming down a trail of roses  w/e floats your boat.

play around as per google guides.

when you feel it coming on, don't let your thoughts wander and keep doing what your doing. let yourself go.

I have never in my.life had a wet dream. It amazes me when I hear people say they had one. I get wet... but it's like.. idk is so weird. It's so different. Before I can just take care of it . Now it's like.. I have to get and Stay in the mood.
When I get in the mood is kind of hard to stay in the mood, because I don't feel as much. I have no feeling in the clit.. but if I shake my vagina.. I can feel.something.. hmm... idk.

When I get horny...I feel things get big down there.... idk if that's normal or what. But the fact I just turned two months may have something to do with it.. but I feel.nothing at this time. I've tried getting in the mood.. but it's staying in the mood that really is hard. I've never had this issue. When my boyfriend is here... I feel like I can hump him and cum.
But I'll have to have panties on . Ive tried it without panties and things were... pretty numb.. I couldn't feel much. I felt more with panties on.

all  to  common  to  see  a  recent  post  op  expecting  sensation  at  a  few  months. 
  give  it  a  whole  lot  more  time. 
  think  of  it  like  this....
  aside  from  the  nerve  deafness caused  by  the  trauma of  the  surgery,  there  are  tons  of  things  going  on  right  now  in  your  body  and  mind.    your  healing  from  a  major  surgery,  learning  life  over,    etc.  your  mind  is  re mapping  the  body. 
  the  first  year  post, In  my opinion  should  focus  on  your  accomplishments,  the  arrival  at  the  destination,  learning  life  and  body,  finding  that  new  normal. 
  sure  everyone  wants  the  perfect  result,  but  before  you  find  that  screaming  orgasm  that  makes  your  eyes  roll  back in  your  head,  you  need  to  heal,  and  know  your  new  you. 
  dont  let  sex  and  that  orgasm  pursuit  become  the  obsession.   it  will  come  in  its  own  time. 
do  the  dilatation  thing,  when  its  comfortable  and  there  is  sensation  beside  pain,  take  the  time  to  explore  the  new  gear  a  lil  bit  more.  find  whats  working,  and  how  it  works.  try  different  things,  see what  gets  your  motor  purring.    what  was,  is  gone,  you  gotta  find  out  what  is. 
  that  solo  time  will  pay  greatly  in  the  long  run. 
the  concept  that  because  we  considered  sex  and  satisfaction  a  normal  thing  before  surgery,  does  not guarantee the  same  results  after  surgery.  we  start  over,  in  a  foreign  body,  with  no  owners  Manuel  or  instructions.   time  ,   and  exploration ,  then  more  time,  are  the  tools  you  need  to  use.  add  in  a  big  serving  of  paitance  and  guard  against  frustrations.   
  another  thing  that helps  is  getttin  a  big  mirror, and  watching  what  your  doing.  you  will  be  surprised  at  how  well  that  works....

It was nearly 6 mos before I had decent and near-full sensual awareness of my new sex organs.  Most of my excitement comes from labia- majora, minora and clitoris stimulation.  I have very little sensation more than 0.5" inside my vagina.

In many ways that's like a lot of cis-women.  Of course, my arousal must also involve my mental and emotional states, which if they aren't aligned with sexual excitement then "it ain't happening."

As others have said, at two months post-op, there is no need to be worried. Everyone heals at a different pace. For me, it was exactly 94 days after SRS that I had my first orgasm, and in the meantime, I felt just like you did. It's natural to be scared. But if I can offer just one piece of advice (beyond the already good advice that other people here have said about exploring, getting yourself into the right headspace, how mental everything is, knowing that arousal has to come first, all that's true), one other thing I would say is that stressing yourself out about it can actually be a little counterproductive. I say this as someone who definitely did stress out about it, especially when I was at a point using a vibrator felt good but I couldn't manage to orgasm. I realized that the more I stressed, the less likely I was to actually enjoy myself. So I committed myself to just relaxing, to allowing myself to heal, to just enjoying what was going on, to trusting that it would happen eventually... and my first orgasm came a few days later.

Again, everyone's timeline is different. It can happen in 3 months, it might be 6, it might be a year. As difficult as it is, try to relax and trust.

Thanks for the welcome. I mostly subscribed because in the months when I was trying to decide on a surgeon, these forums were among of the best resources I found; reading people posting about their own surgical and post-op experiences was enormously helpful. I hope that anything I have to offer might be as helpful to people in the same place I was last year. <3

I had SRS with Dr Suporn. I'm not sure if I had any numbness to speak of and I had my first orgasm 2 weeks post op. I started having them in my sleep around 3 - 4 times a week. Dr Suporn tried to get me to stop as we weren't supposed to orgasm until after 2 months, but I couldn't control what happened when I slept. I think most Suporn girls are sensate from the get go. I guess it depends on the surgeon's technique.

If you have any problems with this, it does say in the post op care manual that some people might need to take anti-androgens again for a while.

Me too. Three months post-op and still can't get much pleasure. I bought a g-spot vibrator (lelo gigi 2) recently and even though it made me feel good emotionally, I had zero sexual pleasure. It seems like even my prostate does not work anymore. I feel like my body is broken. Being horny all the time and having a body that does not respond to genital stimulation is extremely distressing and just thinking about it makes me freak the ->-bleeped-<- out. I really hope that I will be able able to feel good sexually in a couple more months. I'm not asking to be able to orgasm, I just want to be able to experience sexual pleasure for more than 15sec. I'd better go play a video game or something, otherwise I'll spend all day lying in bed depressed.
