I've been working out pretty hard over the past 18 months or so, and I feel fitter and leaner.

However, I have grown a bit down there, and not just because of less stomach fat. I've been reading it's because of more vascularisation, is this true?

i even feel more hornier, and i've always had a high sex drive. but as professionals don't like me, they'd tell some other guy or girl "it's normal..." but then tell me "meh, suck it up!"

Ive started working out in June and I feel great. When Im not able to for a few days I start feeling anxious and yucky.

I look in the mirror and say "wow look at me". I too feel fitter and leaner. I feel down right healthy and that makes me want to eat healthier.

I can tell my libido is better too.

If you've gotten rid of some body fat, you may now have less estrogen and more testosterone in your system. That would make things more pronounced down there. Natural body fat produces estrogen in both men and women.

It's also possible that increased blood flow is happening. When people are out of shape they can get some blockages to the blood flow anywhere in the body, including in the groin area.

Congratulations on getting in shape. It's not easy but well worth it for many reasons!
Thanks for this!

That would explain my estrogen level dropping.
