Would anything be causing me to excessively sweat in the gym? My shirt comes out looking like I sat in the sauna. And I also have noticed a different smell also. I mean I have always been someone who sweats a lot but has been a lot more since starting TRT. Anybody have any ideas?
I smell very different and sweat a lot more since being on TRT. My g/f says it's like sleeping next to a nuclear reactor. I am not too sure why, but maybe just the body being in a different hormonal state?
I started sweating more as well. hardly ever used to sweat before and never had BO. No I can smell myself, only slightly, but still more than before. Now I smell more, *manly*! ;)
My sweating has gone up as well, and I really hope I don't smell more....
Same here...

mine has leveled off some.
I honestly don't see any difference. Sweat in the gym is about the same pre-TRT.
I guess the bigger question here is *why?* would increased Test levels cause the body to excrete more sweat.

Some sort of progestin side effect? What about higher E2, will that cause it?
I hardly sweated at all before TRT, now I sweat a more during workouts and on hot days. In my case, pre-TRT my E2 was at 4. This extremely low E2 meant I was holding no water. Now my E2 is in the 20's, and I have more water to sweat out when I workout.
The water retention might be it. I have always had a problem with water retention. I did pick up some Vitamin A and B5 to help with the oily skin. I heard that will help combat the acne also. Going to give it a shot and see if I get any results.
yea i sweat more now that I'm on TRT, and i do sweat at night, also smell little different according to my wife!
Trt for two months now and noticed more sweating and smell after intense workouts.
id have to say that whatever it is it must be a good thing
To quote my wife, who teaches school, "you smell like a pack of boys...". Never did before.
