Hey man. Not sure how much help Ill be to you, I've only been on T for a little over 6 months. For me, I have been able to grow a little bit of facial hair already, nothing to brag about since its not really visible (bleach blonde in color) but it has definitely started growing in thicker and more coarse. I believe everyones time line is a little bit different.

Depends on genetics.  One guy I know has way more body and facial hair than I do and he has been on T for shorter time than me; other guy I know has far less facial hair and he has been on T longer.

I consider my facial hair average, decent chin strap with some higher on face, very weak moustache, and nothing below lower lip but maybe 5 hairs.  i wish it would fill in.  I am 2.5 years on T.

It all comes down to genetics, I think.  The men in my family are not, shall we say, lacking in the hair department.  I'm about 7 months on T and my jaw gets prickly after just a day or two; nothing major, but definitely there.  Also, my sideburns have decided they want to get to know my jaw more intimately.  Everyone is different; some guys don't shave until they're eighteen, and others begin when they're thirteen.  However... It will happen.  It's just a matter of time.

I've been on T for 10 months and I still haven't moved beyond the peach fuzz phase. 

I get the odd dark hair on my face but when I shave it away, it doesn't come back.  It's a bit frustrating because I would like at least a moustache even if it was thin.

People in my family aren't hairy so I have very little body hair and sad fuzz for facial hair. I knew I couldn't hope for much more growth from the T, so a year ago I went to NYC and had facial hair transplants. I had my 'stache, soul patch, sideburns and chinstrap filled in. I have had a little more of my own hair grow in since then and it looks decent. It was expensive but I'm happy with the results. Like others have said, genetics determines hair growth. You'll just have to wait and see. :)

Sadly it all depends. I am 2 months on T, and I have already seen significant darkening of my mustache, and I have to shave every other day. The hair on my chin is rough and thick but not dark yet, except for one lonely dark hair lol. Lots of things come in to play when you're talking about changes. Your starting dose, your ideal dose, what dose you're on right now, your genetics, your diet and habits, your hairiness before starting T... All of those things change how fast you'll see changes and how much change there will be.

I wouldnt worry too much about the lack of facial hair (even though I did used t stress about it before. This isnt meant to sound hypocritical, just some advice :p)
Im coming up to 18months on T and am only just getting dark spikes on my chin and quite abit on my upper lip.

Around my 9-10 month mark, I remember getting another bout of increased muscle growth. My arms and hands became veinier, and my body hair continued to increase.

As others have mentioned, it depends on genetics, and your dose and form of T plays a part in it too.

There's no rule as to what facial hair you'll get and when.

I started getting my first individual dark hairs coming in after a couple of months and six months in I was shaving regularly.
Today it's been approximately 14 months since I started T and I still don't have more than peach fuzz on my upper lip.
And yet... I have more facial hair than my cisgender brother who's ten years older than me!

This is as any other part of transition...
Results may vary!

Like the other guys said it depends on genetics, dose etc

I didn't expect to have any facial hair till I was 1yr+ but i'm a little over 5 months on T and I have patchy sideburns, my moustache hair has got darker and longer at the sides and I have random patches of hair under my chin.

It's sort of a relief to me to read that other guys who have been on t for around a year don't have a lot going on in the facial hair department yet. 

I'm a year and a month on t and I have maybe 20-30 coarse dark hairs on my chin that grow relatively quickly, but not a whole lot going on besides that.  My mustache is dark, but not really coarse and I have nothing at all happening in the sideburn department.  My dad isn't hairy overall, but he can grow some mean facial hair so I'm hoping I'll end up taking after him.  Hoping a handlebar mustache is somewhere in my future.

It will come along in its own time.

Patience is important with T injections. It all varies from guy to guy. I (and this is my from personal experience) also think it depends on what actual T injection or gel you are on.

My facial hair growth speeded up a lot when I got hormone blockers, which I needed for a different reason, not facial hair growth and then also later on after  the hysto.

Try and enjoy each part of this as it comes along. It will eventually all click in if you know what I mean.

Take care

barely anything at 9-10 months. 

Still not too much at a year and a half, but I can tell its coming in.  I've got plenty on my chin and a faint moustache that I have to shave every couple weeks its starting to come in longer along my jaw so that should be actually coming in dark within the next few months.
I solemnly swear I am up to no good.
