I smell..different

[La femme Nikitta]

Lol, dogs are so classy!

[Hikari]

I quite like the different smell I have now

[katrinaw]

Agree with smell comments etc...
But my perspiration rate still has not changed, but it's now NOT a "sweaty" odour - Tick

Well, there's less sweat generally.

But I think I really need to get back to serious long running.......the smell after boy running a marathon was absolutely rank! If that has changed...........then anything's possible!

My wife says I "smell like a girl" now... 

[ClaireIvene]

Haha @ Nikki's post! Dogs are sooo funny sometimes and yes "classy" indeed like the other person said. It is interesting how animals react differently to you before and after HRT. My cats were really loving before but are even more so now... but that's probably because I have calmed down a bit too.


It is nice smelling like a girl though, I love having that sweeter smell instead of my manly onion and garlic smell I had with all the T and DHT.

The first change I noticed was that my pee smells different.  I've shared a bathroom with my wife for 15 years, so I was well aware of the different smell...and mine smells like hers now.  Gross?  Yes.  Awesome?  Yes!!! 

[La femme Nikitta]

Yeah, dogs, cat's and other animals see with their noses, us included. It is interesting. I like it too. makes me feel good! Cool huh!

[Mariah]

Yep, they do. When my smell flipped the cat came up and sniffed me like she didn't recognize my smell anymore.

My dog is just as protective of me today as she's been for the past 2 years. Granted I'm only 5 months in and who knows when and how quickly things change.

[La femme Nikitta]

I was actually a little bit frightened after getting voice surgery that our dog's wouldn't recognise me. Turns out they did. And as i was unable to talk in anything more than a whisper for months, now they respond to whispering. I don't need to scream and wail like a banshee anymore! Aces!

I was really, really shocked at how fast my scent changed, when i woke up the day after starting E I went into the kitchen & made a coffee then sat infront of the TV, after an hour it occured to me that I hadn't rushed to the bathroom upon waking up to wash off that nasty male funkyness, I nervously stuck my nose into my armpit & realised that my scent had changed & for the first time in god knows how long I wasn't offended by my scent.

To balance out this fast change my breast are being slow in their development, 18 months on HRT and i'm barely an a cup but who cares? They may be small but they're mine

I noticed the scent change right away when it happened. Now it's so normal that I don't notice it as much. I like my new scent.

I was in a similar state after that amount of time. I used to call them my 'tit's in the mist' and i didn't care about having big boobs. Like meh. 13 years later 18DD - or 20D and still growing. Hello! That was suprising! In fact I am going to get my endo to give me a shot of progesterone to stop them growing.

During some fun yesterday, I confirmed that yes it really does smell like a girl even being pre-op. That was the last thing I expected to happen when I first started hormones. I thought I'd be lucky if it ever happened post-op.

I read this thread back when I first joined the forums, and now I finally have something to contribute. 

After being on a very low dose of E and Spiro for about 2 weeks now, I've noticed that I just don't "stink" anymore, lol.  I know this is gross, but for some reason I sniffed my underwear after wearing them for like 24-hours the other day and I was like, "these smell clean still, how odd."  I even convinced my wife to sniff them and she agreed, no stink!  Even after working outside for an hour today and definitely sweating, I had to confirm again.  Nope, even sweaty panties don't stink either and smell fresh from the wash almost, lol.

No discernible "new girl" smell yet, but one small step at a time I guess.  I'll take it!

[awilliams1701]

7 months in and my dog is still protective of me.

[OCAnne]

Bizarre as it may be, we smell better than CIS women!  I still don't know why that's the case.  But I'll go with it!

Oh the new girl smell down below, it does come.  Just wait for it!  or

[Dee Marshall]

I think we go through an early period of smelling like pre-teens.

[KristinaM]

This is a necro bump, but I love this thread, so I had to when I discovered something new about myself!

2 months in and the "new girl" smell has finally shown up!  So excited!
