    Help me make up my mind about a change in protocol

    I have been using the BD for daily injection for a couple of weeks now. They work great, I used to get a lump after a while on my delt using 29G cheaper brand, not with this brand and G size, worth the extra $!

    just got my BD. @Gman86 this is a quick research with AI BD vs Easy touch, it seems for daily microdosing BD is worth: BD Needles are micro-polished and triple-beveled; users often describe them as “noticeably sharper” and smoother to insert — particularly for subcutaneous or shallow IM...

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
