so i have been on t for 5 months now. i think my voice is still dropping but my gf says that it has dropped but it still doesn't sound too deep too me, maybe it has to do with that i was on birth control right before i started t. i started bc around jan and it ended in like  may and i never did get my period back and then i started t may 20th. could that be the reason y its taking so long for everything to work. i never did get my period back but i am not happy with my voice and i haven't even started growing facial hair yet.. so i was wondering when did you all that are on t started facial hair and how did it start? im curious to know everyone's personal experiences on t

I'm not on T yet, neither i'm experient with those things, but... Seems like the voice dropps quickly, compared to the others "symptoms". As for quickly, i would say 4 months. But it surely is something that changes from person to person. Don't worry, maybe the day is closer than you think  =)
The facial hair, aparently, only grows completely after 3 years on T, more or less. Of course it can comes before, again, it's something that depends on your genetics  ^..^;

Hey man! I've been on T for almost 13 months. My facial hair is still growing in more and more. I noticed a few chin hairs and a few hairs on my sideburns after about a month on T. around 2 months I started noticing hair growing down my neck and under my chin. My hair started becoming a lot darker and thicker in those areas around 5 months and it gradually started coming in more along my chin strap area. Around 8 months my chin strap was pretty much fully in but it was still a little lighter in some areas. Between 10-11 months on T my facial hair was pretty much all darker and thicker and now about 13 months on T I have a full chin strap and the hair is starting to grow in higher on my cheeks and higher on my chin.

I've been on T for 19 months and I've just started growing a need-to-shave-twice-a-week patchy neckbeard, which is too light to even show up in a pic. Biology is a fickle, personal thing. Just be patient. You have a long life ahead of you, and these first two to five years are going to be a blur to you one day. If you're terribly concerned, talk with your doctor and have your blood levels scanned.

I've been on T a little over than a year.  My voice is mad deep, but became so gradually over the last year.  I've just begun to get noticeable facial hair, and thats only on my chin.  Give it time 5 months is nothing.  Think about how long male puberty lasts, and where you would be hormonally in that process.  You're probably like an 8th grader.  How many of they're voices have fully dropped, and how many of them do you see sporting beards?  Some men don't even begin developing facial hair until they're almost 20 when they clearly had to have started puberty years before.

give it time =]
