Transgender Testosterone effects? I don't know....?
Question Posted Sunday October 3 2010, 1:14 am
Hi I'm 15 and I'm transgender. I'm a guy, but I was born into a girl's body.
I want to go on testosterone, but I heard it makes your hair fall out and other stuff. How can I know what I will look/sound like after taking testosterone? I can already pass as a guy pretty well and I haven't taken any hormones yet. People call me sir all the time, but I look much younger than I am.
So how can I tell how my face/body will look and how I will sond and stuff? Cuz the effects of T are permanent...
Ok thanks for your help :)
Here's a good quick link for more information, but your best bet for personalized help and educated opinions would be join a group for transgendered people or ask in chat rooms and communities where people have personal experience with taking testosterone.
(Also, just to add: Many states do not allow testosterone to be perscriped to young people below a certain age for thier transitions - generally 18 or 21 years old. Do a quick google to find out if you live in an area where it is restricted.) [ Razhie's advice column | Ask Razhie A Question ]
