I have gone through chemical castration. T count varies between 18-25. Estrodial is approx 1200 and progesterone is 12-14. Prolactin is 110-120. Yes high on hormones.
Question is with these levels can one develop female sexuality???

for some reason my 1st reply disappeared
if u're using sexuality to mean the same thing as i am, then no you won't.
there is a lot of people out there who will say things like how they didn't like men but started liking men after they underwent M2F transition. I can tell you majority of the cases, they're either BSing themselves that they suddenly "like" men to fit into conventional society's views of what gender women "should" be attracted to.
Or, they already liked men to begin with, but until they felt comfortable with themselves and their own body, they were simply too insecure to acknowledge that desire for men while they felt they were still socially "male" themselves.
You like what you like, if there can be woman who like woman and men who like men, its pretty much clear that what gender one likes has nothing whatsoever to do with one's own gender or sex, so you'll continue liking what you liked before.

The numbers need to have the measurement method. Different scales have different levels. The test should also have a table showing the normal range of values.
No chemical castration or the real thing will not develop female sexuality. Your sexuality is something that you have always had. The drugs may let you explore your sexuality more easy. May change the physical body and mind when hormone levels are changed. If your desires are to have more of a feminine side exposed. It could be.
You did not mention how your hormone levels have been changed from.

In my humble opinion punkypink put this very well.
One's sexuality is what it is, and there may be more external factors, upringing, peer and social pressures, etc. etc that mad direct and suppress that sexuality for a long time.
Sudden changes are unlikely, but a 'release' psychologically due to reduction of external influence, maturation or some 'opening psychologically' due to the actions of hormones on the brain may be possible. This may make it 'seem' as if there has been a change, whereas really itis just a few psycological bonds being broken or released.
This is far from an exact science, and very complex. Add in the imagination and even a little potential subconsious 'self-hypnosis' and it is amazing what can appear to be reality and change.
For what it is worth i think i have always prefered to have a sexual relationship with a Male, but due to my own set of pressures thought i was bi-sexual for many many years. Now, i think i would find it very difficult to have sex with a female......
Just my two-pence (cents) worth.
Either way if You 'feel' happy and comfortable and well-adjusted within yourself, then does anything else really matter?

If by sexuality, you mean secondary sexual characteristics (ie tits) yes. If by sexuality you mean conventional heterosexual female attraction to males, certainly not. If it were that easy, they'd just given Ellen DeGeneres and Rosie O'Donnell some more estrogen and "cure" them. That nobody even considers such options shows how impractical the idea is.

Hi,
I'm going to agree with Punky Pink and charlenebrown on this matter. Sexuality and gender are all together two separate matters. Sexuality is one's preference to whom they are attracted to. Gender and the physically characteristics associated with one's gender is entirely different.
The lack of testosterone and your level of female hormones is not going to affect your sexual preferences. It may enhance them, but it's not going to change them entirely.

I wasn't sure what will happen over time. With next to zero testosterone and high levels and estrogen and progesterone.......just curious what might be down the road. I grown nice size breasts. Just not sure how the hormones will affect the brain over time.
