Transguys & Adam's Apples

Recently Forest did a great video on Adam's Apples. They are one of many changes that happen on T, but one of the least talked about. Show your Adam's Apple pride!

Testosterone, Sex Drive, etc. [hormones, sex]

One of the most recent videos on my YouTube channel is about my sudden increase in sex drive with this past week's shot of testosterone, whereas just a couple months ago I couldn't even finish.

My libido has definitely decreased from jackrabbit to a steady drive over the course of five and a half years on testosterone (before T I had no interest in sex, no drive at all), but with this past shot, I felt like I was going through puberty all over again!



Guys, if you are on T and your sex drive isn't through the roof, don't worry - it is a common belief among doctors that males hit their sexual peak at 18, so you will just be "one of the guys" when it comes to diminished interest in sex, since most of us transition after the age of 18.



Anti-depressants are also commonly known to decrease libido (which is part of my problem), so if you are on an anti-d and having trouble getting aroused or orgasming, then you could possibly talk to your doctor about changing your dosage or other treatment options to decrease some of that frustration that T so aggressively causes!

Here are some foods to increase libido.

Meet Luke, aka MrLukePaul on the tube. He lives in Milwaukee and is just starting his transition. He will be seeing Dr. Steven Brown for his hormone therapy, an excellent doctor who has treated trans patients for years and has done a lot of research in the way of transgender hormone therapy.

You can read Dr. Brown's "Hormone Replacement Therapy for Transgenders Do's and Don'ts" here.

Dysphoria and Sex

CodyOriole did an excellent video inquiring if sexual dyphoria improves after starting testosterone; the short answer is it does!



Here is my response.
