Sore throat, voice changing

Hi, melissamp99!

Welcome to Susan's.

Sorry to hear that you have a sore throat.  Unfortunately, I can't help you with the effects of T, being MTF myself.

So I have been on T for almost three weeks. I have the sore throat from HELL! How long does this last?

When my voice was deepening, it was mid-winter.  Since it was cold where I am, I drank a LOT of hot tea, which also helped my changing vocal cords.  It didn't seem to matter what flavor tea, only the temperature seemed to matter.

Good luck bro!

I have the same experience, but it's allergy season and I also have been talking more than usual lately so... Not sure if it's T! Has your voice cracked at all, even a little bit? I notice a lot of guys always doubt it is T, so maybe we're all just in denial and on T at the wrong time (allergy season) lol.

No my voice hasn't changed at all . I was diagnosed with strep. Guess it was a coincidence that two weeks after I started T , I got strep throat for the first time.
What got me to ask this question was the first week I had the sore throat, my doctor said it was allergies.
Well my throat got worse and worse so I asked this question. I couldn't take it anymore and went back to the doctors a week later.
This time she did a swab of my throat and bingo it's strep.

Well, that's a total bummer, dude.    Get well soon, okay?

If you weren't sick, I'd recommend you to make a video of you talking in your current voice.  It doens't matter about what, just as long as you talk.  Then in a couple of months, make another one, and so on.  That way, you can keep track of your voice's changes.  I did so, and I'm glad I did!  The change was jawdropping!

Good luck!
