Random Question About T


Guest Drew

Recommended Posts

hey there. i had gotten to thinking about something rather random about the effects of T. i was on the personal website of another FTM and reading his section about what T had done for him. he wrote that since he had been on T he had noticed alot more belly button lint, this was also true for me and i was wondering if anybody else had had this experience and if anybody knew why this might be? i'm sure it sounds like a rather strange question but i was just curious.

lol god I love this place lol....nope, all clean. But I do wanna hear what everyone else has to say too.

But I did hear some non-textbook responses too. I actually like hearin those cuz sometimes you'll be wonderin "is it the T?-nah, it couldn't be" and guess what? It is. Cuz others are havin the same stuff. Example: episodes of aching joints. Not severe or anything but enough to notice. I thought was just me cuz I knew I had arthritis too but another ftm experienced it, checked with his brother -a bio male- and the brother said "yeah, thats normal in bio dudes when they start puberty some of em".

Or sore throat feeling as opposed to the standard "cracking voice".

Or S/O's getting bent out of shape because the crotch area starts smelling like a male crotch area....

That's strange, I noticed that as well recently, but never really thought it was a result of T. Maybe it is if other people have noticed it as well. I just find everywhere starts smelling bad quicker ever since I started testosterone.

And as much as I have in past always had it on my list when people said "why do you like women?"- one of the answers when describing "everything about her" was the smell, both overall and between their legs . For some reason I guess subconciously I pinned the smell on the "item" but in fact its source is the hormone in relationship to the item. Sooooo same way we get "growth" we get the penis smell is what I conclude.

that's funny 'cause I never even thought about it to much, but I do have more lint in my belly button and mybe it is the hair (i have a very hairy stomach) or maybe it's the change in the shape of my body. i did notice when I first started T that my smell changed not just down there but everywere. I sweat more and have to take more showers. My wife says I smell like boy all the time, I like that.

On T are you sweating any more? That might be helping to catch lint.

That's what I was going to say. I've been sweating a lot more. Also, as Martin mentioned, the extra hair probably helps catch stuff too. Sweat + hair = belly button lint.

Drew, I totally know what site you are reading. It's a good one. That guy kept some awesome and complete records.
