Transgender males seeking to align internal identity and external gender expression frequently undergo testosterone (T) therapy to masculinize their voices and other traits. We aimed to determine the importance of changes in vocal masculinity for transgender men and to determine the effectiveness of T therapy at masculinizing three speech parameters: fundamental frequency (i.e., pitch) mean and variation (\n                    <jats:italic>f<\/jats:italic>\n                    <jats:sub>o<\/jats:sub>\n                    and\n                    <jats:italic>f<\/jats:italic>\n                    <jats:sub>o<\/jats:sub>\n                    -SD) and estimated vocal tract length (VTL) derived from formant frequencies. Thirty transgender men aged 20 to 40 rated their satisfaction with traits prior to and after T therapy and contributed speech samples and salivary T. Similar-aged cisgender men and women contributed speech samples for comparison. We show that transmen viewed voice change as critical to transition success compared to other masculine traits. However, T therapy may not be sufficient to fully masculinize speech: while\n                    <jats:italic>f<\/jats:italic>\n                    <jats:sub>o<\/jats:sub>\n                    and\n                    <jats:italic>f<\/jats:italic>\n                    <jats:sub>o<\/jats:sub>\n                    -SD were largely indistinguishable from cismen, VTL was intermediate between cismen and ciswomen.\n                    <jats:italic>f<\/jats:italic>\n                    <jats:sub>o<\/jats:sub>\n                    was correlated with salivary T, and VTL associated with T therapy duration.
