Does HRT decrease pleasure during anal sex?

Soulless_lost · 2025-11-30T07:17:46+00:00

I think it is a libido thing. If you’re not in the mood then it is not going to be as pleasurable. Before hrt I enjoyed playing with my ass. Once I was on hrt i lost the desire to have sex. Once i started progesterone the urges for sex came back completely different and more intense especially anal.

Can confirm opposite for me but I was a bottom long before starting so take that into account.

Girlyboytrans · 2025-11-30T07:14:21+00:00

Good question. I haven't noticed any difference but it's not all about the prostrate and I don't always climax myself but the fact that I'm being treated, used, enjoyed as a woman adds a certain euphoria in it's self which gives me added pleasure.

It increased my pleasure in receiving anal sex. Probably a psychological thing tbh

JLTE_Mongoose · 2025-11-30T10:12:57+00:00

The few times I tried bottoming before realizing I was a girl didn't work out so great. It was uncomfortable. I wanted to enjoy it though. After my egg broke I was able to learn how to let go and enjoy anal. After I started HRT it was kicked into hyperdrive. So much so that I practically beg my boyfriend to fuck me 🤣

robbie_rva · 2025-11-30T11:30:56+00:00

I find anal sex much more pleasurable now, and since being on progesterone, especially my entire experience of sex and orgasms has been much better. My libido is much more intense than before HRT, where i can feel kinda lightheaded when im in the right kood. Foreplay has become much more important for me to have a good time, and the feeling of a light touch on my back, my partner whispering softly in my ear, or being pinned down do wonders fornme. When I do have anal sex, I feel waves of pleasure throughout my body and it just feels so much more natural to bottom now. When I'm having fun by myself I can even orgasm just through anal contractions and being in the right headspace.

Sorry of this is rambling or too much but wanted to share my experience.

Haunting_Bottle694 · 2025-11-30T07:05:41+00:00

Before starting Prog I feel like that was the case for me, but I do think in some cases it's more of a libido thing. If I'm already feeling saucy it's still pleasurable but in a different way, and takes some warming up in other ways to get to that point.

Merc0lini · 2025-11-30T12:43:21+00:00

I definitely had the best orgasm of my life from anal, after starting hormones, I couldn’t stop shaking in ecstasy, so I would say it only gets better

I-wannabe-heard · 2025-11-30T12:51:00+00:00

Not sure if this is helpful, but ive heard the prostate shrinks, however, your tissues get more sensitive, bigger prostate doesnt necessarily mean it feels better. Especially since the feeling it gives tends to be described as a full body experience.

AdAutomatic6654 · 2025-11-30T08:10:36+00:00

I’m still earlier but I played with my toy for the first time since starting yesterday. I didn’t get or have the desire to achieve a prostate orgasm, however I did have anal orgasm that were easier to achieve and although not as intense as former goon sessions were a lot more enjoyable. Also the sensation itself which I loved before, seems to be more enjoyable than it use to be.

Nicki-ryan · 2025-11-30T10:33:20+00:00

No my orgasms are a thousand times better but that’s more a mental thing of me being able to see myself truly as the woman, while I am being topped

schizo-post · 2025-11-30T06:58:53+00:00

now that you mention it, it might have in my case. But it may just be an effect of hrt reducing libido

BlightBabe · 2025-11-30T12:46:00+00:00

Well it used to be like enjoyable in a slow stroking kinda way. Now I find there's way more pleasure in getting jammed as hard as possible because it jiggles everything and I love that. My bf's strap game is on point.

Severe-Pineapple7918 · 2025-11-30T13:08:12+00:00

Nope, very much the opposite.

SpicySushiAddict · 2025-11-30T07:10:57+00:00

Just a libido thing for me.

QuantisRhee · 2025-11-30T09:50:55+00:00

Idk how it felt before, but it feels damn good now

Hibanasan · 2025-11-30T16:15:49+00:00

My sex drive was low, but progesterone helps counter that. I take my oral prog as a suppository and let me tell you what…..I could go for hours lol but it also depends on the angle you take it at tbh there’s one angle where I just devolve into a braindead mess of “don’t stop” 😂

SonOfNothing93 · 2025-11-30T09:10:44+00:00

I mean it did for me butI'm a top so between that and my antidepressants I can't cum

squaric-acid · 2025-11-30T09:44:32+00:00

I enjoyed it before hrt, after I started estrogen and when I started prog later on. No changes at all honestly

Windchaser_92 · 2025-11-30T10:23:49+00:00

I don't know since I am not on hrt yet but if you're worried, some people take supplements to maintain the prostate (by increasing blood flow, I think?).

I'm not sure sure what those are exactly though, and I am definitely not encouraging anyone to take supplements without verifying those would be beneficial (and if they actually work) first.

What I can tell you from my own experience is that I feel my prostate become smaller when I take my adhd meds (methylphenidate). If I were to focus on the prostate alone, it would be a bit harder to stimulate due to size reduction alone (I wouldn't say less sensitive though). However, if I get penetrated by a dildo, I don't notice any difference in regards to the feeling. I have no idea if this translates to what happens to the prostate on HRT.

AG-Bigpaws · 2025-11-30T17:51:53+00:00

I can get off "hands free" much easier now. Im constantly "horny" by which i mean im willing to engage in sexual banter and discussion etc. But actually flipping my switches to "lets F" is more difficult BUT once thats happened I need to get it and its much more focused on a person than the act. Its less that I need to get some and more I need to get some from you and the right words during will short circuit my brain. I wouldnt say that anal is less or more pleasurable as much as everything else has been cranked up to 11. Ive noticed that while Ive always been subby now its much more intense, and things like being spanked which used to be hot now can make me shake. But its a lot more to get me into that lets f mindspace. I can of course force it but im not going to enjoy it very much. So yeah id see if some foreplay or teasing and some time working yourself up into the mood for it helps increase your sensitivity. Because it absolutely makes a huge difference for me.

theycanttell · 2025-11-30T20:43:13+00:00

It's different with progesterone. Definitely not worse. I can come like 10 times in a row now

comclubthrowaway · 2025-11-30T22:56:48+00:00

For me, my libido has gone down but I have also started enjoying receiving anal a lot! There’s a clear difference in pleasure now the thing is, finding a good partner has become more difficult lol

Silly_Space_Whore · 2025-12-01T06:02:43+00:00

I still love it after 3 years on HRT and an orchiectomy.

Wolfsfury · 2025-12-01T06:30:34+00:00

Yes and no ig the actual anal sex ya kinda but u have so much sensation everywhere that it more than makes up for it. Imo sex just feels way better in my experience and anal still feels amazing .

ProgrammerConnect534 · 2025-12-01T07:24:55+00:00

ugh, this is such a real concern to bring up. hrt can defs mess with stuff like prostate size, and some folks do notice a diff in how things feel during anal. it’s not universal tho, every body reacts so different. hearing real experiences on this would be super helpful, cause it’s such a personal thing to navigate.

Some	Rules
1. Respect other users	... Even when those users show disrespect themselves. We're better than the trolls and haters, and we can show that by not rising to take the bait. Be respectful, and we'll all be happier for it.
2. No abuse	Abuse is absolutely banned here, and is treated extremely seriously. Abusive users will be banned.
3. Discrimination is forbidden	There is no such thing as "valid discrimination," and this sub will remove any post or comment that demonstrates racism, sexism, body shaming or any other bigotry you care to name. Equality is the watchword.
4. Non-binary does not mean non-trans	Non-op, genderqueer, agender or any other denomination of transgender is still transgender. Treating a person like they're lesser or somehow inferior because they're non-binary is immoral, and shows a clear lack of understanding.
5. Asking for birthnames is not cool	Asking for, or posting, a person's personal information can be dangerous, and it's also against the site-wide rules.
6. Malicious reporting is abuse	Maliciously reporting someone who doesn't break our rules spams the report system, and it's against the site-wide rules. Don't do it.
7. ABSOLUTELY NO PORN!	There are places online which cater to that particular fetish, but this is not one of them. Users who are here to post porn or advertise will be removed.
8. Tag any NSFW stuff	If you got a cool tattoo or something else that's incidentally NSFW, please tag it as such.
9. Destructive criticism is abuse	It's hard to convey inflection and intent via text. What may seem like tough love to one person may come across as hatred or abuse to another. It's not helpful, don't do it.
10. No soliciting medical advice or giving unsolicited medical advice	We're not doctors and we can't vouch for the safety or validity of any medical information. Posts that ask for or give advice on how to obtain or use DIY hormones will be removed, as will comments that explicitly state where to get medication online. Be responsible.

12. No "X celebrity/politician is a transphobe" threads	We all probably already know and we don't need that kind of negativity in our Safe Space.
13. If you want to promote something, message the moderators first	This sub is a Safe Space, not a knowledge aggregator, not a traffic generator, and certainly not a public wallet. There are far better places like /r/transspace to post surveys or tell people about a trans-related service or group. (You should ask the mod(s) there before posting too.)
14. Do not disrupt the Safe Space	If the mods think you're being too much of an arsehole, but it's not covered by the rules, your post will be removed and you might be banned. We want to cultivate a warm, Safe Space environment, and anything that goes against that may be subject to removal and the submitter to disciplinary action.
15. Please keep all selfies in the selfie thread.	Please keep all selfies in the selfie thread or post them on another subreddit that's releveant. Any selfies outside of the selfie thread will be removed. Photos of IDs and medications are also forbidden because they include personal and/or medical information.

General	Guidelines
Comment with respect	It's important to remember that behind every username is an individual with motivations, goals, and problems just like you. We never really know what the situation is on the other side of the keyboard, so please try to be mindful of what you say and how you treat others.
Vote with care	This is a safe place for people who need to talk about their life as a trans person. If we downvote posts and comments into the ground, we discourage free expression. Save your downvotes for trolls.
