That's an interesting though. I know testosterone imbalances can cause more hair growth than "normal" in females..

I would doubt it. I've never heard of young boys having a change in hair texture during puberty, but I haven't really looked into it.
T causes androgenic hair growth and can cause hair loss on the scalp and trigger male-pattern baldness.

yes it does! i dont know from experience yet, but i watch alot of youtube videos, updates for ftms on T and they say it has

Yes it does! When i was around 1/2 months on Testosterone, i noticed it getting thicker, and it gets greasier more often.

Yes, the hairs themselves grow a bit thicker and rougher than before, though it varies from person to person. I know some guys who stopped taking T have said that their facial hair, while still definitely there, grew softer over time.

It should, 'cause it is changing your body, so therefore your hair will be affected by the hormones. Just like a pregnant woman's hair changes.

i've been on t for 3 months and ive not noticed any change as far as the texture of the hair on my head,but i have noticed the hair on my arms and legs getting darker and thicker

i'm sure it "depends on the individual", but in general, yeah. i'm pretty sure my hair is coarser now, it feels different anyway.

It does seem to change, but it takes a while.

My hair is a bit oilier. But it's more of an issue of hair line changing.

It has for me. It's been 2 years on T for me.

Some people claim their hair gets oilier during the first few months or years (puberty), and some say it feels thicker and wirey, but not everyone. Depends on your genes I'm sure.

Yes, my hair has thickend since starting testosterone.
It also can cause male pattern baldness if that's in your genetics.

Causing baldness isn't actually changing the texture of the hair itself. I feel mine has become more wirey feeling.

I haven't started T yet, but I'm so worried about male-pattern baldness. My hair is really thin as it is so I think it's a strong potential that I might go bald.
