A good friend of mine was one of the speech pathologists at the local
VAMC.  He had to work with a fair number of transsexuals in the  business
of adjusting their voices.
 
Female to male were easy because they simply take male hormones and
the larynx responds by enlarging and deepening the voice.
 
Male to female (more common) is trickier, and the best technique seems  to
be employment of a low pitched whisper.  The male larynx will not  retract
and raise the voice naturally with estrogens.
