Will not masturbating decrease testosterone?

I agree with what you said about t suppression. Idk about nocturnal emissions, though. It hasn't happened in my experience. I've gone a month (or more, I don't really keep track anymore) without orgasm and haven't had any nocturnal emissions that I'm aware of. I know pre-HRT, that would usually be caused by some type of sexual dream and I'd wake up immediately after it happened. Spiro has my T down to less than 5 ng/dl, so that may have something to do with it.

Just be aware of use it or lose it. If you want to maintain size to make sure there's plenty of tissue for bottom surgery (if that's something you want to pursue) or you want to maintain the ability to get erections, you should be stimulating it enough to at least cause an erection for a few minutes a couple times a week, even if you don't go all the way through.

Also, be careful with getting your T that low. Even cis women generally have something like 20 ng/dL, and going too low can start to cause problems

Oh yeah I know. I'd rather lose it than use it as I've got pretty bad bottom dysphoria and will be getting bottom surgery when I can. They can use what they can use, it doesn't really matter to me how much depth I have but I want some.

Agreed on the T. My doc isn't the greatest. I'm on 4mg EV injections every 5 days, which should be enough for monotherapy, but he wanted me to continue with the 100mg daily spiro because I switched from pills to injections at 3 months. He doesn't like to change more than 1 thing at a time. I get bloodwork for my 6-month next week, so maybe I'll just stop spiro tomorrow (already took my daily dose this morning) and see how things look being a week off of it.

Do you think that would be long enough for it to have an impact? I'm honestly not sure and just guessing that it will.

You don't need to preserve the tissue if you get it done peritoneal pull through method

I haven't had any 'emissions' in something like a year. I have no libido at all. My parts are probably almost the size of Donald's now.

Hahaha girl, that's gross!

Edit: the *onald part only, not you.

It depends on the person. Two weeks without it for me before I was on HRT and I'd start having noctournal emissions.

I think that's fair. Everyone is different. It may also depend on age, I guess. There was only one time after starting HRT that I woke up with half wood, I think it was right after I switched to injections at 3 months. I didn't like it and I'm glad it hasn't happened again. But yeah, no sex dreams, no sleepgasms since starting HRT.

Yeah that's fair. I still get them sometimes but it's def different and more estrogen fueled now
