How do i control acne
i have a decent amount of acne after starting T. I wash my face every night with a cleanser scrub thing but still get lots of blackheads and pimples. Any tips at how to minimize this?

Welcome to teenage boyhood. Other than what you are doing, the advice I was given growing up was that I'd eventually grow out of it. And luckily I did. If it's really bad, talk to a dermatologist. Hopefully other people have more in depth advice.

This has nothing to do with being a boy.
The evaluation of acne severity showed that “mild acne” was the most frequent form in all subgroups (92% in adult females, 82% in adult males, 89% in teenage females, and 77% in teenage males, respectively). Additionally, the least frequent form was “severe acne” (1% in adult females, 3% in adult males, 1% in teenage females, and 1% in teenage males). Finally, “moderate acne” was observed homogeneously in all subgroups, though both male groups showed a little higher prevalence of such in comparison with the female groups (15% in adult males and 22% in teenage males versus 7% in adult females and 10% in teenage females) - https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5788264/
Still somewhat more of a boy thing, but it's less of a difference than I thought. Also since OP is transmasc, I was hoping framing this as a boy thing would be comforting.
