Title: Appetite on T
Post by: Menoimagination on April 15, 2016, 03:57:58 PM
Did your appetite increase? If so, when?
I'm three and a bit weeks on T, I think, and I'm not sure what this is. Yesterday and today I've felt really hungry and today I've eaten way too much and idk if it's because of stress or because of t or both. Tomorrow is my birthday party so I know I will screw up there but idk.
I am gonna work on curbing this appetite because I'm pretty sure I've eaten like 2500 or so calories today idk.

I had some appetite increase but nothing extreme. I have had to start watching my calorie intake though for many reasons but one of them was because of the types of food I was craving.

I had an increase in appetite, no idea when exactly it happened. I think it just increased over time.

My appetite is more under control now. Exception: when I took anti-histamines. I looked online and apparently they disregulate your appetite. I never noticed this effect before.

I've been working out and do crave protein more but in the past I always fixated on eating meat and now I am satisfied with tofu and beans. Could be b/c my periods were making me anemic.

My appetite had only increased during the first month and then went back to normal. I've eaten a lot of junk food since starting T but I think that's just due to my depression craving it not the T. I gained a few pounds since starting and find it harder than being pre T to lose it.

I've been on T for six days and my appetite has skyrocketed for some reason. I'm a relatively light eater but lately I've been so hungry for anything and also extra thirsty. It doesn't seem like this is common but for me its true  ???

If I remember correctly I became extra thirsty during the first month; as I felt hotter and sweatier. It should taper off soon.

The first couple years on T I felt like I could EAT ALL THE THINGS! Aaaaaand I did lol. 7 years on, and my appetite has calmed down though I can still eat much more now than Pre T. Luckily I hike a lot lol
