well ive completely transitioned to the point where i cant go any further. i have PCOS, 100% passable(will post picture) and have gained a beard, mustache hair in other various parts in the process.

i am quite nervous about starting t as to i do not know what will happen when i get my first shot, which is why i have turned to my fellow FTM's. so i have a few questions for everyone that has been on T after PCOS, and just in general.

1) after my first shot or after a few months will i start to have anger issues?
i currently have an anger problem and the only way i get rid of any anger i have is through exercise, breathing an listening to music

2) how long before you started seeing changes in your body after you had started taken t?
i currently weigh 225 lbs, i do work out on a consistent basis. i have started running at least 4 miles a week, and i bike over 40 per week, as well as doing push ups and sit ups.

3) going off of number 2, did you gain any weight or lose any weight? if so what parts of your body did you gain weight the most?

I never experienced anger issues, T actually made me waaaay more calm. My doctor said that it's a myth that one get aggressive because of T shots, he explained it like this, women's hormones are up and down more and that causes you to be in a bad mood and get angry or frustrated easily (I had this problem pre T) Testosterone will keep your hormone level constant on the same "track" and you will only experience a dip right before your next shot. That will make you more calm, and he was actually right, I have a horrible mood in the morning all of that is still there but that part of my personality but I shrug things off more easily now and don't care as much so things that would get me angry in the past don't get to me anymore.

I started noticing changes around in fat distribution and such around the 6 month mark, I didn't work out at all so if you work out I think you will perhaps notice changes faster than I did. My body also got more hard in a way over all and my fat isn't as jiggly anymore. I gained some weight after I just started T because I was literally hungry all the time and I put on alot of water from the T , most of it went to my belly but that was also the case pre T. The water I put on and my appetite calmed down after about 1 year on T

No prob

I'm going to second the notion of being more calm on testosterone. I wasn't a particularly moody person before, but I'm now on a much more even keel and able to let things go that would have eaten away at me. It's not that I'm apathetic; I'm just able to spend more of my emotional energy on things that deserve them. The only way T has made me more "aggressive" is that I've become more self-confident and more assertive. I'm still a person who largely avoids confrontation, but now I'm willing to actually stand up for myself and that's a huge positive.

I have really bad anger issues dating back as long as I can remember, and they were ameliorated incredibly by testosterone. When I started T I went from being damaged and crazy to damaged and mostly chill.

I used to be way too skinny. When I was sad I couldn't eat. When I was angry I couldn't eat. When I was nervous I couldn't eat. When I was scared I couldn't eat. When I was confused I couldn't eat. I was barely solid, and lightheaded all the time for lots of years. When I started hrt I got way healthier. Now I'm a real human and I feel better. With T I'm slightly overweight and boring and predictable. I love it.
