Title: Decreased appetite?

Since my dose got raised a few weeks ago, I've actually noticed a decreased appetite when I was expecting an increased one. Is this normal/ does this sometimes happen instead of an increase? Or is this probably unrelated to T? My dose got raised about 4 weeks ago and I noticed the decrease about 2 weeks ago. It seems to have decreased a little since I noticed as well.
I haven't noticed weight changes, however, I don't have a scale at school, so this is entirely based on how my clothes fit me.

I had a decreased appetite for a short time after a dose change awhile back, too. It went away after the next shot I think, so your body might just be getting used to the new amount. I wouldn't worry too much about it. Of course, if you notice weird weight gain/loss or if it persists for a long time, you should definitely let your doctor know.

Have any of your other habits changed? I've found if I'm getting less sleep or more stressed out, my appetite is next to nothing.

I definitely experienced a decrease in appetite a few months after starting. In fact, my entire metabolism seems to have shifted... I can go long periods of time without eating and not feel hungry at all, but then when I do start getting hungry it is an immediate NEED for food. No warnings.

Oh my gos, yes. I just started T three days ago and since then I have to remind myself to eat. No appetite to speak of.
Before this I had a healthy appetite and when I worked out, I wanted to eat my entire kitchen.
I've actually had to go up a notch in my belt. I'm a little baffled.
