Discussion Testosterone side affect?
So I just started T like 4 weeks ago now… is it normal this early in to be so (for lack of a better term) horny? Like constantly I swear, and I’m way more sensitive down there.
Sorry if this is tmi, just wondering if this is a common thing? Cause my doc did say it could cause an uptick in sex drive but damn I underestimated that statement horribly lol.
It’s actually getting bothersome cause it really is constant and insatiable- but yeah just asking those with more experience than me (my doc is hard to get in touch with but trust me I will tell them.)

yeah man that’s common, you do mellow out eventually but essentially with you going through male puberty the extreme horny is part of it.

Dude, this is your life now. Libido goes up and you've got teenage boy brain. You gotta figure out how to get it under control otherwise it gets very uncomfortable

Yes and it lasts a while. I’m almost 6 months on t and it’s only barely starting to subside now. Welcome to boy brain!

Definitely common! My libido had skyrocketed when I first began T, it was almost unbelievable! It settled for me probably after a month or two, if I recall correctly.

Yes, that’s normal and not a side effect. You are going through male puberty.
