So this may be a bit gross, but I've been on low doses of estradiol and spiro for three weeks and I have noticed that my underarms have been smelling like Indian curry for a few days now... I haven't changed anything in my diet, is this normal?

If that is the case, I would stop using all underarm deodorants that contain turmeric, coriander, and fenugreek.  ::)

I've noticed I no longer get that funky man sweat smell on long hot days... YAY! But I also seem to be noticing it on other men a lot more now... BOO!

Well, it definitely smells a lot better than the "funky" man smell. It's not an unpleasantly strong curry smell. Maybe its my deodorant? I just use plain women's deodorant.
