Post ops, do you ever get horny? I know this is an indelicate subject and since I say I am so religious, you probably find my question unthinkable. It’s approaching 8 years since I had any Testosterone in my blood. The Endocrinologist confirmed last week that my T levels are not measureable.
My E levels are around 50.
Yet, every now and then (every few months) my eyes just go crossed with desire. I don’t know what I am going to do about it since penetration does about nothing. The little man in the boat seems to have a window into my soul though. From my experiences in the past, I know better than try to go out and get laid, because I will be an emotional wreck for weeks after, feeling as if I should go directly to hell and do not collect $200.
Can anyone offer sage advice? I don't want to do anything to make me go blind.

go buy some toys
as the subject says, go buy some toys, there are lots of different types, you just need to find what "works" for you.
while i personally have little time for any religon, i think it's been well proven globally that regardless of what any church says, masturbation will NOT make you go blind.
that said theres numerous reasons why it may not be safe physically to find a partner, plus religous hangups about sex outside marriage, so that leaves you little choice.
if you still get horny, awesome, good for you girl!
long term effects from hormones are different for every person, i've known people go from being celibate to tramp and vice versa and everywhere in between, and yes as some of the authors on here write, you do see patterns, i live with my wife (transitioned after 7 years married, just celebrated 18), and i have regular times of the month when i go moody, or horny etc.
one way to look at it is that you no longer have seed to spill, so the religous taboo on masturbation is shot to pieces :)

Hi, I'm post op. It's only
Hi, I'm post op. It's only been about 7 months since surgery so my hormone profile is drastically different. But yes, I do get horny. It is true that penetration-type sex with my live-in boyfriend sometimes isn't satisfying enough, so I go for clitoral masturbation. It works for me.
Of course we get aroused.
Of course we get aroused. I'm fifteen years post-op, with normal women's hormone levels. Like most normal women, I get sexually aroused from time to time, to varying degrees. That means the biological imperatives programmed into humans are working more or less like they should. You have three options to cope with it. Find a partner to help when it happens, take care of the situation on your own, or find some way of coping and waiting for it to go away on it's own. The only confounding factor religion introduces is why anyone would give serious consideration to a religion that is so at odds with human nature as to consider relieving this to be wrong.
