I wanted to give an update on my progress:

My voice has gotten much better. There was a period of time where it was almost hard to speak and I could barely sing and thought my voice would sound like shit forever but I am happy to report that it has leveled out. It even sounds good and has a rich tone.

Losing my voice peremantly was my biggest fear with starting T. Took the risk and I am so glad that it didn't happen.

does that happen occasionally, permanently losing one's voice from ftm transitioning?

[-] cowboycrustation 2 points 3 months ago

I've never heard of losing it entirely where you can't talk, but I have heard about times it has been greatly reduced in quality, tone, and range permanently. Usually this happens if you start on a very high dose of T without building up to it.

Did you do any voice training to masculise your voice, or is it purely the T that changed it?

[-] cowboycrustation 2 points 3 months ago

i did voice training long before i started T. My voice usually passed. Had a naturally low voice to begin with. The thing I was most afraid of was my voice i was okay with going to shit but luckily that didnt happen.
