Hello! I'm 29yo from Brazil, and I've been on Hormone Therapy for about 10 months now. Since I'm also on a relationship for about 3 months, I've noticed that my libido was pretty low, and when we were on bed I could not feel that much pleasure at all, and reaching an orgasm was almost impossible. Sharing some doubts with my Endro and friends, they told me it could be due to ciproterone acetate I was taking along with estradiol and finasteride. I've cut it for about 15 days now and I seeing my body hair coming back along with beard and a feeling of masculinity wich is quite bad. Someone told me on a forum that bicalutamide as antiandrogen could result in feminizing and not losing much of the libido. Do you have experiences on that? Here in my country this drug is not well known of use in HT, so I would like to hear you girls and maybe have some tips about it. Thank you!
Hi Nova
After exploring the use of estrogen under the supervision of my endorinologist we found that using an anti-androgen was not necessary. Estrogen satisfactorily lowers the level of testosterone.
Pre-orchidectomy, I was using Progynon Depot 10mg/ml. 1 ampule I.M. every 10 days.

Libido is psychological. Physical response, on the other hand, can be affected by stress, anxiety, fatigue, etc
