One month (+a week) in:Fast changes were mental and a bit physical...
- irritability is crazy and harder to control
- sex drive increased to insane amounts, and I already had a decently high one.
- (NSFW) possibly some clitoris growth? not really sure. sensitivity DEFINITELY happened.
- throat tickly and cracks sometimes, but it's also allergy season and I started a job where I'm talking much more, so...
- my face was already super oily but I've noticed it feels thicker now. Gross.
- acne isn't exactly worse; I had it when I started T. Not sure. But lately, it's concentrated in between my eyebrows, which I hear is a big hormonal place.
- I've always had fast-growing hair, and I'm fairly hairy, but it feels a lot faster than usual in my upper-lip area, maybe even elsewhere? Definitely not positive about this one.
Not positive about other mental effects since there are many stressful factors in my life right now. T is probably just the baseline puberty angstyness to it, so I don't want to blame it for everything. Maybe I'll blame it not for my poor sleep quality, but the fact I'm so sweaty at night, ha.
However, just for future outlook's sale, just in case...
I have been in a "repress emotions" phase, fairly empty inside, very irritable.
Newer issues I didn't
constantly have before T, that kicked up again recently, include extreme fatigue and poor sleep quality (waking up 76 times per night, waking up drenched, forgetting dreams).
Despite this, I am able to push through my normal debilitating anxiety more than ever.
Oh, and I forgot to mention I had huge issues getting the T out of the vial for the first few weeks. Went back in for a second nurse teaching appointment and I think I'm fine now!
Summary:main changes - irritability, horniness + sensitivity.
minor changes - throat ticklish (unsure if T-related), more oily skin, possible hormonal acne issues.
