The body is a hodge-podge of Rube Goldberg machines, and trans research is wayy underdeveloped. Method of delivery and absorbancy and a billion other things probably affect the effects.
Out of curiosity, the skin changes were a huge boon to me (one that I didn't expect to be so nice), so there's a world where it was partially psychological. Was body odor a big dysphoria source for you?
Lmfao samee, I getcha. I had nothing against my skin before, but it was never comfy. I didn't even realize it because it was just normal, and when it felt worse it felt like it just needed a shower (where I incidentally rubbed my skin raw. Which I didn't even process as probably-not-great).
