Hello everyone...I'm back. It is two days before my next shot is due. This just started today. I've been sweating buckets even on a long ride on the air conditioned bus. Im in a room full of fans right now and sweat is just pouring off of me. Its too late in the day to call my nurse.  What could this be? I take .5ml/ 2 weeks of testosterone if that helps. I've been on T since last May. I don't know if my problematic sweating is related to transitioning or not. Ty for reading.

T raised my body temperature slightly. I noticed I was no longer cold at the usual temperatures I felt cold at for most of my life, and felt overheated more easily at 26 C.

I wouldn't say it made me sweat "more", but rather at lower temperature the "feeling hot" kicks in

I sweat dramatically more since I started T, and from more places. From what I understand, it's pretty normal. Like Victor said, I also run about a degree hotter than I used to. (This isn't a bad thing for me. Before I started T my healthy baseline temperature was like, 97 F, so I'm actually in a more normal range now.)

Talk to a doctor if you're concerned. But as long as you stay hydrated, it's probably not a huge deal.

I've not noticed any significant change in my response to temperature. I do perspire a bit more than usual, but we are talking a very small increase. The difference is more in the smell. I used to have virtually no smelly sweat, I do now and deodorant doesn't last as long as it used to. I need to use anti-perspirant now to alleviate the smell.

E has made me a LOT more sensitive to the cold then I was even before I was on it. I'm sure you must have noticed by now how women are are always wearing sweaters or blazers in the middle of summer when anywhere near an air conditioner while the guys have sweat pouring off them?  I'm the one in the over coat

One of the benefits, for me, of taking an anti-androgen was not just not sweating anywhere near close to what I was, but best of all not stinking like a guy if/when I did

I am way warmer on average than I used to be. I don´t like summers that much anymore for the same reason and I actually like winters now, when it´s nice and cool :P

A few trans friends of mine have reported the same thing.
