Hi JessW :-)
Its perplexed me for so many years, even more so now that I never get those "euphoric" feelings myself. Thanks for describing your experiences! Intriguing... So I assume those feelings did not arise before HRT?
When I was a child and right up until I was 26 I used to have random "attacks" of intense feelings which would last for up to ten/twenty minutes at a time before dissipating.
How I felt is difficult to describe, but ultimately it involved a mixture of softness, joy, elation and total peace. As if the world was perfect and filled with love. Any care or worry at the time completely melted away.Honestly, it almost felt like an orgasm but there was never arousal or sexual feelings associated. I could describe the feelings as being intensely feminine in nature, as they certainly didn't seem masculine, however of course I have no idea how feeling feminine actually feels. But I am seeing some sort of link between how I feel and what's being described on here by those on HRT.
I'd be interested in hearing whether FtM's also experience euphoria. I'm perplexed as to why (being a male) I'd experience such sweet feelings. Can testosterone make men feel like that?
These "attacks" ceased around the time that my hair began receeding & shedding quickly, I gained 4 pounds in weight, my body hair & facial hair darkened and my skin became greasier. Since then, I've felt a little more uneasy with a low-level background aggrevation. Very little sets me off being angry now. I presume I had a lurch in T &/or DHT levels, but I'll never know for sure. Ultimately I want to know whether I need more T or actually more E in my system. And I'd most likely want those random feelings to return, as they were pretty amazing tbh. No other feelings come close to the serenity those brought.
