i've been on gel for 3 months, going well so far! the idea that it works "more slowly" than injections is a myth, you're just a) more likely to forget doses with gel and b) getting a more consistent level of t rather than a sudden influx every week or smth so the emotional changes are less noticeable for some

i was on gel for around a year, it was pretty good. for some people it works slower than shots; i don't have any experience with shots but i'd say it worked pretty quickly for me personally. if you do go on gel, use lotion or smth on the area after or it'll dry your skin.

Have you noticed a voice drop or voice cracks yet? I’m almost 2 months in and all i’ve gotten is a lot of body hair, bottom growth and raging hunger lol

yeah, it hasn't dropped a ton yet (or at least not that i can hear), but it's been cracking like crazy for the past few weeks so hopefully that's right around the corner lol
