I'm scared of the process of having to potentially relearn how my body will want to have sex post-hrt. I'm 26 and I only just recently have felt very sexually free and confident after a few negative experiences in the past. I'm scared that my skills and interests won't apply and I'll have to start over. What can you tell me about the trans sexual experience during your hrt journey but not bottom surgery related.

Also because of health reasons I'm not a big anal gal.

Cross posting this on Reddit cause they sadly weren't helpful at all. Thanks so much for your time 🩷

May I ask to what unit you're referring when talking about testosterone levels? 0.8-0.9 what? I'm personally also below cis female levels (I'm at 12ng/dL) with just 5mg of CPA a day. I'm wondering if I should maybe reduce my CPA dose even further to maybe help my low libido.

Edit: nevermind I figured out you're probably referring to nmol/L. I'll leave the comment up anyway for future reference. (0.8nmol/L are 23ng/dL and 12ng/dL are 0.4nmol/L)

Oh yep sorry I should have added units, you're right I was using nmol/L.
