what happens to your hairline when you start T?

I already have a masculine hairline just from birth, will T still effect it? Or will it just stay the way it is? Sorry if this makes no sense.

It may affect it. But honestly, it's hard to know unless you actually start on T. Your hair might stay the same, or you may find yourself with a receeding hairline or getting a bald patch, etc. I'm sorry my answer is so vague, but it varies so much from person to person there is no single answer.

T itself won't change it much....Though if your body does a great job of converting T to DHT, you may run into some baldness with time. You can try a DHT blocker if baldness becomes a problem. DHT blockers may slightly affect some secondary characteristics, but overall it's not essential for males. (It's like Progesterone for females...sorta.)

Well, so far nothing :)

A fairly large number of trans guys experience some balding. I don't know if there's research to see how the proportion compares to the general male population. And many report an early slight recession to a more masculine hairline. Like you, I've already got one, so I'm watching mine like a hawk. One month in, no difference.
