I’m 37MTF, and haven’t had an actual orgasm in a…very long time. The last one I experienced was when I relapsed on coke, and it was amazing. Prior to that, I’d say it has been 10+ years since my last orgasm. I don’t plan on falling off again any time soon, so I don’t know what to do.

For a long time, I derived my pleasure from satisfying whichever random guy I was having an encounter with. This worked for so many years, but I’ve grown tired of it now.

I think it is the HRT I am on that has extinguished my ability to cum. I won’t stop taking it, but I want to feel it again—I’ve forgotten.

Receiving oral does nothing for me, being penetrated is nice, but I’m over it.

What suggestions might you have? What can I do? Or do I need to try to learn to enjoy it again? If so, how?

    I’m not a doctor and I’m cis so, I’m not sure I could be useful but: do you masturbate? Listening to your own body by yourself may help. Or not, but if you don’t it may be worth the try (a few tries, actually).

    And I agree with @Pornphilosoph@lemmynsfw.com : if you didn’t, speak to an actual doctor. Sexuality is a part of a healthy life, so it’s their domain too.

      It’s almost as though I have no feeling down there. Nothing really stimulates me enough for it to get hard, not enough to get hard. I use my hitachi magic wand and watch porn, and it feels like I get 50% there, but then it just kind of fizzles out.

      I have my first doctors appointment in several years coming up in a week, I’ll mention it then. I had not thought of that 😅

      Thanks

        Stop the porn and the vibrator. You are overstimulated. Take a time off from porn and powered sex toys.

        Your sensitivity will increase with time and practice. Spend time masturbating just with yourself, your hands, and your fantasy.

            Sexual function is the early warning sign of metabolic health, eventually bad metabolism leads to diabetes

            You can get a home glucose meter and check, or a continuous glucose monitor and see your blood sugar in real time

            If you have your last lipid panel you can look at the ratio of tg/HDL to see your insulin sensitivity, less then 2 is ok, less then 1 is great.

                You probably don’t have diabetes, it takes years and years to build up. Just check on your insulin sensitivity, hba1c, tg/hdl - what have you. Any improvements you can make will improve your sexual functions.
