Okay, so I am pre-everything and I have a naturally deep voice and I grow chest hair, and leg hair like you wouldn't believe, and I grow facial hair on my neck and the sides of my cheeks. Does anyone know why? Not that I am complaining, cause this is awesome for me, but I am just trying to understand why.

It's based on your genetics, I'm pretty much the opposite of you when I was pre-hrt. I had an androgynous voice, very little facial and leg hair and no chest hair at all, and my face started feminine, so we are lucky considering a lot of our features represent those of the gender we identify as.

It could just be genetics... but have you been checked out for PCOS?

Well PCOS would definitely explain the extra male features, I hadn't thought of that. I hope you don't have PCOS though, it's a real pain from what I can tell.

They both specifically affect your hormones, these are questions you definitely need to ask a doctor or at the very least other people on the forums that have pcos and have transitioned at least.

.. and I've just replied to your other topic. :)

(Maybe it'd be better to keep it all in one thread?)

Hey, it's the same with me. I got facial hair on the sides of my cheeks and on my chin. I also got chest and abdominal hair and legs I would say are the same as yours. Have you maybe get any more information about it?
