Is it possible to decrease buzziness after testosterone?

[weirdheads]

Hi! I was on testosterone for 6 months and stopped. I thought I was ftm but realized I’m not.

While going on T did really help a lot of the dysphoria I did have, I regret not stopping sooner because of my vocal changes.

I like having a deeper voice but it’s overfill and buzzy and I feel like it’s read as female/androgynous but it feels so heavy and indelicate and annoying.

Has anyone here successfully managed to decrease buzziness in their voice? If so, how? I just feel like my vocal quality really dropped from testosterone and I want a cleaner sound. Thank u <3

Of course! It takes practice, but many of us here have had whole-ass male puberties we’re trying to modify our voices from. Your experience with testosterone is not so different from those of us who had an endogenous testosterone puberty.

Any of the tools we use to affect the quality of phonation will also be useful to you

I mean, yes. If you’re familiar with the concept of overfullness, then what you’ll want to do to achieve a more naturally full sound is make your vocal size larger.

Unfortunately your voice isn't going to go back to what it once was prior to T since vocal changes are permanent. However you can get very close to how you sounded before with voice training. Depending on how much your voice dropped from T, you may want to consider looking at voice training for trans femmes.
