When does strength become equivalent of a cis male's?

Advice Needed

How long on T until strength and muscles are equivalent of a cis male's my age?

I'm taking kickboxing soon, trained pretty little but I'm 7 months on T with 85mg/week but have been inconsistent and my fat distribution doesn't pass the best. I pass well in general, but I'm also only 5'6 so my friend (same age 16) who is only slightly taller easily beats me if we spar and I'm thinking of delaying the classes until my strength matches up with an average male of my age. I'm scared of being clocked because of my strength.

I have been training a lot recently though, I'm just waiting on the T to work. Did anyone else take any similar sport, what did you do / how long did it take?
