Title: Some experiences with T I'm wondering are normal? (ftm)
Post by: Billybuddy on November 02, 2014, 12:51:28 AM
Hi, my name is Billy and I've only just joined this forum because if a few things that are concerning me. I'm not sure where else to turn for advice and this is the first site that popped up when I searched for trans forums so here I am...

I've been on testosterone for about six months now.
At first I was really excited about my bottom growth, I got to about an inch fairly quickly.
Disappointly it sort of stopped after that, and recently I've noticed shrinkage?
My guy is barely there anymore even when I'm hard, and it's really upsetting me.
Is growth fluctuation normal?
Can I expect to see it return to growing??

Another weird side effect I've had is that the first few days after a shot I get a very VERY strong odour down there.
It's to the point where if I slide my undies down to use the toilet, I get a whiff.
It's not a gross smell, sort of acidic?
It's also changed my taste according to my partner, again not too unpleasant but just... Strong.
Has this happened to anyone else?

I hope some of you can help me out, I hate that my first post on a forum is so whiny but I'm really upset and kinda scared to be honest. :(

As your body chemistry changes, so will your body odor. I have a very strong crotch odor now, and I think that the smell is exacerbated by my having a hole instead of a pole--the secretions make me smell stronger. At least, I hope that the odor will lessen once I've had bottom surgery.

I haven't had any shrinkage down there. Maybe it's just a notion you have? Or maybe it was hard all the time for a while and now it isn't?
