Title: skin becoming very sensitive touch
Post by: jainie marlena on November 21, 2011, 12:23:26 AM
my skin is getting sensitive to the touch. I ran my finger down my arm and was covered in goose bumps. I can't stop toching my skin.  ;D Even my hands are like that as well. I can feel everything this is so new to me I don't know what to think about it.

I've learned to be much more careful... I was working on my Iguana's new enclosure and woke up with bruises all over the place, particularly on the inside of my arms

I like having softer skin, but not real happy about bruising so easily... I use to rarely show bruises even when I expected to see one... Now it  doesn't take much and I'm all bruised up

Something else also I have noticed. I thought I would take a walk to the store because it was a nice day. I underestimated how much stuff I could carry home. The bagsgot heavy very fast I had to stop like 10 times before I got home. I am not used to not being able to do this myself. my son said no wonder women ask men to do thing for them all the time. lol.

Yes, I've lost allot of strength as well, I've had to ask a guy to help me from time to time with now heavy things that would have been not much of a problem before

My son said he would help me next time. I doubt I could get a man to help me at this point.

It is a good idea to be careful who you ask and/or accept help from... It is best to ask someone you know fairly well...

My skin was always fairly sensitive, which my wife found to be fun to play with, but since I started HRT it has become much more so. 
I can reach orgasm from touch in all sorts of places now, that I couldn't before.  Places you would expect, like the general groin area, and the breasts, but also places like the back of the neck and the eyelids!!  It's fantastic!!

I bruise way easier than before, and red marks (from scrapes and such) last way way way way way longer now

I've had to stop using Veet (hair removal cream) because it burns my skin now. And I bruise more easily too. But I'm enjoying the extra sensitivity, and enjoying other people enjoying how soft my skin is now ;D.

I believe this is because of the spyro and not the E. Spyro is also blood pressure drug and in my experience works like a limiter to your blood pressure. as far as it seems to me You've been for fairly short tome on the HRT to experience the strength loss from muscle mass loss.
I sometimes contemplate the Orchiectomy just to get of the Spyro for that reason until I have the cash for the SRS.
