Yes, last time I was on T, I had a problem with overheating. When I did, my skin would become very warm; I would perceive the room I was in as being much warmer than most other people experienced it; and I would blank out and zone out mentally while overheating. My grades suffered due to this. Strangers accused me of being "on drugs" because I guess I seemed that way during "overheating." This overheating got worse, more frequent, and more severe over time in my own case until I finally quit T. At it's worst, I couldn't even follow a conversation. I would forget what we were talking about in the middle of it. As a 23 year old person who normally has superior/very superior intelligence, this was very unusual for me.
(It took me so long to get approval to be on T, and I had hoped to transition for so long, that I felt devastated when this health problem forced me to stop, and I put off stopping because of that. Toward the end of my being on T, I received a neuropsychological exam* measuring memory and cognitive performance found a sharp decline in my ability to remember and multitask after T.)
I've compared notes with many other people and most people do NOT have this problem (that I did). [/b]
As a premed, I suspect that the problem may or may not have something to do with the following: I was injecting testosterone ethanate every other week, and my blood levels were in the 300's. For a biological man, that would be on the very low side of "normal." I was in my early 20's at that time.
Hope this is helpful to you.
