Oof, I feel like I am the only one that didnāt have any kind of strong reaction to progesterone. Didnāt cause any kind of change in my libido or desire.
It's absolutely not a rational desire. It's like biology hijacks your brain and forces you to crave having babies, even if you're a staunch antinatalist. A ton of natalist sentiment is just people coming up with excuses for this primal drive. Having a child will make most people less happy, but because so many people can't accept that they aren't in control of their desires, they gaslight themselves into thinking it will.

Look, I'm just saying that you don't know until you've tried a few hundred times.
FilthyShrooms@lemmy.world · 38 pts · 81d
And even then, might as well try again. Just in case
southsamurai@sh.itjust.works · 6 pts · 80d
Maybe three more times, just so you have a nice sample group

my plan is to someday make a baby with someone, and breast feed it myself. so yeah for the baby, but also for the baby mommas.

This is my plan also, except that I have mechanical issues as to whether I can carry it. And I want to fix that bug!

Wanting to make babies? In this time and economy?
hildegarde@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 30 pts · 80d
Progesterone doesn't have an economics degree.

Prog doesn't care; it just demands you breed

M-making babies?! In this time of day, in this time of the year, in this part of the country, localized entirely within your uterus?!

My bodies been telling me that my whole life, I wonder what it'll feel like when I one day go on progesterone.
TotallynotJessica@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 18 pts · 80d
It goes from a desire to a call to action you cannot refuse

Your milage may vary, as with all hormone therapy, so you never know until you try. It didn't impact my libido until a few weeks in.

Try tinkering with different admission routes. Oral, rectal, transdermal. They produce different effects in people.

That's pretty much what I feel on prog too. Might be just placebo, but I feel like it is increasing breast growth though.

This is very true

I literally cannot comprehend actually being incapable of not wanting to procreate.
Sex sort of, but wanting babies that badly?
I also don't want sex THIS desperately either.

With boob growth and libido? It definitely can, but there are no guarantees
