One thing I have noticed is that I don't sweat like I use to.  I still perspire but not as heavy and I don't have that male stink.  It almost has no smell at all and I can get away with Lady Speed Stick.

How long did it take for the sweating to change?

I would say that I noticed it about 6 months.  I had been doing some heavy lifting at work.  I was also wearing a sweater.  I was sweating and had not used deodorant.  I had to check to make sure that I was not smelling badly.  Yes I was sweating. but it smelt more like my ex use to when she sweat.  Not that funky male smell.

My body seems to react strongly to chemicals. When starting HRT in the first week and barely a few days of starting. The things I noticed where how my senses "felt" more.

Sounds and colors were more "intense" smell and taste too and also touch. But then I noticed that my body odor which has been (thanks to testosterone) quite acid and strong suddenly and abruptly changed into a very musky and almost noticeable one.

Its also funny how I seems to smell down there :p

Well, as they say:

Men sweat.

Women perspire.

  I am new to this forum stuff. So let me introduce myself. I'm Mercedes. I have just started taking transfemme now, been on this for approx 3.5 - 4 months so my testosterone is now changing to oestrogen. I'm a m2f TS and yes my urine does smell different. Also this may sound crude. But it tastes different! Not that I drink it on a daily basis but when I did initially smell my own urine I thought mm.... this smells different, that's when I tasted it. Don't think that I'm weird or anything like that as many people do taste their own urine. And before I started taking TF I already knew what my male urine tasted like. And it's also true about the BO under the armpits, very little now. Same with the sweat. I'm not sweating as much under the arms either. Mercedes

I believe the quote is:

Horses sweat.
Men perspire.
Women glisten.

I like yours much better!

Hmm if I work like a horse I really sweat. I do tend to not smell as bad; however all things are not equal.

First my skin now cuts and bruises very easily.  Therefore I try to be more careful.

Second I have digested over 40 pounds of muscle and can not do the work I once did.

Third I hate ruining my nails!

In conclusion I now prefer air conditioning and gloves to lifting concrete blocks.  If it is 90 degrees and humid and I start moving, then my body will try to cool itself with the flow of copious amounts of liquid.

yes it does change.

Or (Larry the Cable Guy version):

"She don't sweat much fer a fat girl, do she?" 

I realize that there are some rather interesting old threads about and that's all good...

But sometimes it's possibly better to start a new thread... Even if it's about the same or a similar subject

Just a suggestion
