Not sure if anyone has an answer on this one...

Gonna put this in both places as it may be unique to one or the other:

Anyone who is on HRT ever find that you feel (for you guys out there and you mtfs) like your nads are being gently squeezed, but in your abdomen in respective relation to where your nads are, left and right, both? Lemme be more specific.

I'm intersexed. I have 2 sets of gonads. I know what it feels like to have my male ones caught in my pants and feel like they're being gently squeezed. But I'm feeling that sensation in my lower abdomen on both the right and left sides respectively. It doesn't hurt, but it is kind of a dull ache. And it comes and goes; it's not constant. It lasts for about 10-15 minutes coming and going and then its gone for quite a long time. Have had it happen off and on over the past 5-6 years, but never really had thought to toss it out into a group of friends and knowledgable people such as yourselves, since my dr said it wasn't that big of a deal. But I figure that if anyone else has experienced it, they might have more insight than just "Oh, that's normal, ignore it."

Thoughts, anyone?
