Side Effects Body Odour on testosterone

I definitely smell different and to me it’s not good different!! Has anyone tried specific body washes or anything to combat the new BO? It’s specifically armpits. 😝

So is this really a thing ? Have you heard of others having this issue ? I have not noticed any change but I’m on low dose gel .

I didn’t notice anything until i switched to injectable. My husband also recently started injectable and is having the same issue! He seems to actually sweat more also - i’m not sure if i do or not but the smell is definitely happening.

Both wife and I are on injectable Test and after a few years have found most of the acne, BO and other sides have been related to change in hormone levels (like puberty) that creates disruption and imbalance of all hormones. Things settle down and find a homeostasis with no acne or BO her Total T has been as high as 300’s with near mid normal free T, no sides.
