I guess it is all about personal identity and where you are on the GID spectrum (which only you can determine) coupled with the individual situation. Aside from a few, who are certain a full transition to a fully female physicality and including eventual SRS, I don't know of many here who view loss of male function as a desirable goal in and of itself. Rather, many, intent on feminization to some degree, recognize that loss as a real by product of the process, and accept that as a necessary trade off. Others attempt to have it both ways, to one degree of success or another.
The good news, at least as explained by my endo, is that, short of SRS nothing is totally irreversable, except perhaps fertility, and there are even questions about that.
My guess, Miranda, is that at 57 you are no longer concerned, as am I am not either, with fathering children. Is that correct? If so, the effects of PM on function should be reversible by discontinuing PM and, if needed, possibly increasing T thru supplementation, whether herbally or synthetically. In the meantime, loss of function can be slowed and moderated through the use of lower dosage amounts of PM, coupled with (pardon my pun) regular sexual stimulation and exercise of the sexual organs.
Of course, there are no guarantees, so caution is advised. A consultation with an endo might also be advised.
I can say that despite four years of PM, and recent application of estradiol, the last month without any AA at all has left me now feeling as though sexual release might be possible again now or soon, with the right situation, and inducement, of course...tee hee.
