Hormones don't do anything to voice, despite what the other people say. The voice training is typically better than the surgery, after surgery you have to have voice training anyways, so might as well just do the work. It is very difficult, but with practice it can be done I know. Most of the surgery results are not satisfactory and sometimes permanent voice loss happens. Check out www.tsroadmap.com for the different types of surgeries, risks, and costs as well as more indepth information about them.

Yes they can, though these are very risky procedures that can damage your voice, and hormones will not change the range, just the pitch. The better route (and quite often the more realistic route) is Voice Coaching rather than surgery. Check out the link below to see what the results can be like - this is the site of the transsexual woman who voice-coached Felicity Huffman for Transamerica. Try the voice file "Andreas Voice".

Going that direction, often voice training is needed to get a passable voice. I have also heard of surgical procedures, but the extreme risk, cost, and lack of availability of places for the procedure(s) has limited the use of this method.

Surgery is overkill. Hormones will do the trick.

No. Hormones help.
