Title: 2nd shot
Post by: GQjoey on April 01, 2008, 11:49:11 PM
So I have my second T shot on Thursday, pretty amped. I haven't noticed many changes thus far. I have seemed a little more tired than I usually am, not sure if that's normal or not. I also can't tell if I'm getting a cold, or if my voice is starting to change, my first shot was on the 20th. I had a low voice before T, but the past couple days I always feel like I gotta cough, and nothing comes up.
Another thing I'm pretty excited about is, I started getting a few little dark whiskers on my lips right before I started T. I have a small mole that they sprouted around, but now I've noticed like 8-10 as opposed to the couple before, and they're BLOND! I'm hoping my facial hair color stays this color, and not orange like my dad and bro's LOL.
At any rate, I know it's going to take months for the changes to really show. Hoping to notice more after this second shot.

Grats man. And, like Chris, I'm slow to grow facial hair - over 3 years on T and I can finally grow a goatee, but no mustache. Patience.

And your voice probably is changing a bit. It does happen really fast.

Thanks! I was really tired after my first shot too, and seemed more tired in general the next couple days. I'll definitely keep you posted tho.

Had my 2nd shot last thursday, got it in the upper leg, was surprised it didn't hurt as much as I thought it would. Only true changes I've noticed is my sex drive, and moods. And can't figure out if my moods/emotions are really changing or if it's all in my head lol. I had a really bad day Saturday, n truly felt like crying, and couldn't for the life of me. I was so angry, frustrated, etc but not one tear formed. Oh well, I got over it, and have realized I have more of a "dgaf" attitude when it comes to pointless, useless, drama.

yeah it doesn't hurt at all, i don't know what everyone talks about.  maybe 'cause i've got more fat :p

i also don't know if its just a "placebo effect" with the moods either.

congrats on your second shot.
