Girls who’ve had difficulties getting/staying hard. What helped?

So I’ve been on estrogen for 3.5ish years, and projesterone for most of that. I’m about 2 years post orchi. I basically can’t top anymore, and I’ve got two partners that I would very much like to top.

I’ve tried Sildenafil Cialis in the past, which did basically nothing. Viagra had mixed results, but leaves a huge barrier to spontaneity. I’ve heard of some girls using topical testosterone creams or gels, but I’m a little afraid of getting other androgenic effects. Kegels haven’t done much good, but perhaps I just haven’t managed to do them consistently enough.

Have any of you had success with anything you’ve tried?

      Honestly I don’t remember. I was taking it every morning, and I never had my dosage increased, so probably what ever the typical starter dose is. Maybe I just needed a higher dose? I’ll have to talk to my doctor about it next chance I get.

        yeah, maybe just cross-reference with Carta Monir’s dose, she used to take 10 mg “as needed” but found it ineffective because she had to wait an hour for it to take effect, and it forced an erection rather than just enabled her to get and stay hard; then she changed to taking 2.5 mg every morning and she found that helped her get and keep erections whenever she needed. You might have just needed to adjust your dose, but I don’t know.
