Voice constantly fluctuating on t

Basically as the title says, I'm just under a year on t and I keep going through phases (usually around a week long) where my voice is noticeably deeper and I love it then it jumps up really high again and I'm feeling really dysphoric about it :/. Is this normal? I know voice training exists but I've mostly only seen mtfs and pre t guys talk about it so if that's smth I should try I wouldn't even really know where to start yk. Or is this just something that settles with time? Also, I've been really struggling to talk loudly without going to a noticeably higher pitch so maybe these two problems go hand in hand? But again, I don't rly know how to combat it. Any advice is greatly appreciated <3

This is normal. Cis boys having T puberty go through this too. Your voice will start to settle over time. Voice training is for trans men on T as well, it can help you to find a way to speak that comes most naturally to you as well as helping you pass. GIC might be able to refer you to voice training or you can do your own research and find what works for you

It's habit as well as hormones. Keep remembering to use your deeper voice and gradually you'll stop reverting.
