Struggling to continue T because of the in between phase at work

I’ve been on T for almost 5 months. At work I never came out, and people think I’m a masc lesbian with my deadname.
Now I’ve been getting patients who address me with male pronouns, and I get so embarrassed because usually they think I’m 10+ years younger than I am and since my coworkers don’t know that that’s what I’m going for. I’ve been so uncomfortable at this job already for being new (I switched sites recently). People are not welcoming already and I don’t want to make it worse for myself. My instinct is to run from this and pause taking T, but I know that’s not what I should do. And I definitely can’t leave this job. I just wanted to know if anyone else has been in a similar situation.
