Title: Anti-Androgens have no more effect on my SEX DRIVE like before
Post by: Sad Girl on February 18, 2011, 01:48:08 PM
When I started taking Spiro + Finasteride, all my sex drive went dead. I didn't want to have sex at all but now it's no more the case despite my dose is still the same. I feel horny, not that I get erection. It's just that the want to have sex is back despite I don't really get that 100% erection as I use to get pre-HRT. Why Anti-Androgens have no more effect on me anymore now?

The body builds up resistance to any drug.  Theoretically, this is why one needs a doctor to adjust the dosage across time.

Trans people aren't.

Rabbit, this site - forum is the exact opposite of that.   It debunks the myth of the "true transsexual" and shoot for honesty. Plus, the fetishists are allowed here too..their stories are important.

There is a REAL, HONEST understanding of the myriad of feelings and breadth of transgendered existence going on here.

Sad Girl, which kind of horniness do you feel back? I bet it's like an in-heat feeling which has less to do with physical arousal. I also only started to notice the full effect of HRT recently ~ 9 months. How far along are you??

I don't know if this is the appropriate section for this, but I still have a sex drive. I've been on anti-androgens since Sept. 21st and estrogen since Dec. 3rd. The burning, constant need/desire that was always there before is gone now. I can still get off just fine when I want to, though. Yep, I masturbate. OMG! How horrible, right? I'm a sexual being and I'm sex positive. Unfortunately, I wasn't born with the right genitalia, so I work with what I've got. My nipples have been way sensitive lately and lightly rubbing them while masturbating is now the most amazing feeling ever! :o I guess you could say I'm a bit like MacGyver in my sexuality. I may not have the right equipment, but with a paper clip and a stick of chewing gum, I can still get the job done. XD
