Somewhat, VC. My doctor prescribed me 100mg per week. Looking at your protocol, that would be 196mg per week at 28mg/D. I'm not so sure I'm being prescribed the right amount per week, is my concern. By the sounds of it, I'm not. I know the vials are 100mg/10ml, but I just don't think 100mg/week...

After speaking to my doctor, I was able to be switched to Testosterone Propionate. However, they are prescribing me 100mg per week of TProp vs 200mg per week of TCyp. Is the potency the same for each? I don't know how else to ask that question, sorry. What I'm trying to say is if 100mg of TProp...

Going through Empower, what is the price of Prop? I noticed a mention of a 100mg/10ml vial. So is the price comparable to Cyp or does it come out more expensive? I guess I'm trying to find out the ml to ml price comparison, basically. I know 2 - 200mg/5ml vials from Empower run for $75, so just...

Yeah, like I mentioned, it seems as though it definitely works well for some. For me, I don't really see or feel a benefit. I have honestly had better libido and night wood without it. Just taking 30mg of TCyp and nothing else on a daily basis, I have honestly felt the best out of all previous...

Vince, was there a difference in the way or felt? Or what was the reasoning behind going down to a lower dosage? Was it having an effect on anything in specific?

Yeah, that seems to be where a lot of people are at, from what I see. To me, it just seems a little easier to draw to an exact number on the syringe like a 5 or a 10. I seriously doubt a few extra mg's makes that much of a difference, but I just find it easier when drawing and injecting...

This is very interesting, CW and Tom. Thanks for your responses. I keep learning more and more as a result of this site and responses such as yours. I may talk to my doctor about switching to Propionate in the future, considering I do daily injections of TCyp now. Before I do that, though, I...

I tried searching for this type of question on this forum and could not find anything, so please bear with me if it's already posted somewhere and I didn't find it. Anyhow, what is the difference between Testosterone Cypionate vs Propionate vs Enanthate? And does it matter what is prescribed...

I just noticed I put "I switched to ED injections of 15mg of TCyp...". That's actually incorrect, it's 15 units of TCyp on the syringe. That actually equates to 30mg of TCyp ED for a total of 210mg per week. Anyway, just thought I'd share my correction. Thanks.

Thanks! In my opinion, and keep in mind I'm not a trained professional, I don't think HCG is absolutely necessary. Atleast it wasn't for me. Some could definitely benefit from it, but I think it's on a case by case basis. Also, as others have mentioned on this forum, eliminating AI usage as much...

Yeah, I know what you mean. If I notice sack issues like some others have mentioned about pain I'll definitely keep some handy. But so far I haven't really noticed any issues. My wife actually says she prefers my balls not as saggy as they used to be, so sounds like a win-win for me. ;)

Sorry for the long winded post, but needed to provide a detailed history to provide better clarity into the situation. I started TRT a few years ago, but didn't really have it dialed in because I was apparently seeing a doctor that knew nothing about TRT. Dosage prescribed was 200mg of TCyp once...

Just another update from my experience within the first 24 hrs. I've been checking my BP and it's been normal so far. I've heard it could cause BP to increase, but in my case it has not so far. I also slept like a baby last night. First time in a while that I've slept like that. Morning and...

Ok, so I don't know if it's psychological or what, but I pinned 25mg shallow IM in delt with my normal 29g 1/2" - 50cc pins at lunch and my 5:30 PM workout was absolutely INSANE!!! I normally do 10 mins cardio to get the heart rate up, 30-45 mins of weight/resistance training, followed by 30...

That's awesome. Please share your labs when you get them. I would love to see how things go. I just started today on 25mg. I'm thinking I may do like you and only do EOD. I'll have to see how my estrogen levels get, but I've got plenty of AI for that anyway.

Thanks, Periandros. When do you inject? Morning, noon, or night?

For those running MENT, when exactly are you injecting? I've heard it's good before workouts. I've also heard it helps for better sleep, but then there are also people having issues with overheating at night. I actually just purchased someone myself and plan on starting it this coming week. I...

Thanks CW. I don't know if it was the sensitive, but I will request that on my next labs. In regards to a CBC, I forgot to include that in the post but my hematocrit level was at 44.4%, hemoglobin was at 14.1 g/dl, SOMATOMEDIN-C was at 125 ng/ml, and DIHYDROTESTOSTERONE was at 508 pg/ml. Again...

I didn't order these specific tests. These are tests the doc orders himself. Next time I will see if I can request specific tests, if I know which ones to ask for. Any suggestions?

Hey, everyone. I wanted to see if ya'll could take a look at my latest labs and let me know if you see anything that stands out. Details about my protocol are as follows: 200mg Testosterone Cypionate (50ml E3.5D) - pinning with 28g 1/2" shallow intramuscular in my delts & 500 iu HCG (25ml E3.5D)...

Haven't been on this forum in a while. Glad to be back, though. I've been able to get the 10mL vial from CVS and they were able to take the GoodRx coupon. It was cheaper for me that way, saved about $15 or so over Empower where I get it for $75. I tried calling Walgreens today because I noticed...

I do want to add, though. The labs with the 1,309 TT were without HCG and only with 200mg TCyp that week. I think I need more precise labs of all my levels on this protocol to compare better. I may get those done next week before I decide to increase the frequency of injections.

I wouldn't necessarily say "low" libido, but less libido than during those two weeks. My energy levels are still pretty good. I know I was getting night wood atleast about 6-10 times per night where it would wake me up and the sex was incredible! Right now I still get night wood, but I'd say...

I've been on this protocol for about 10 weeks now. The first two weeks were great, but then....not so much.

I've previously posted my labs earlier this year, but will repost them to give a full picture. I first visited a urologist in April of 2015 and took my first set of labs (results provided below): These were the only results I was provided, but I know it's not a full set of labs that should...

Well, I got back on the horse this morning and pinned my right delt. No issues at all! Followed Jackie Treehorn's location instructions and that obviously made a difference. I did two Shrek fingers from the acromian and all was good. Didn't feel the sensitivity I did before and no burning...

I only have issues when injecting my right delt (I'm right-handed). When injecting my right delt I often feel very sensitive spots and re-pin in another spot when that happens because I don't like that feeling. Also, when injecting my right delt I notice I get a burning feeling sometimes during...

Touché, Nelson. ;) I'm working on my chubbiness as we speak. :D Just got on one of those "InBody" body composition at Lipschultz' office on Friday and not happy with the results. I'll be working hard to get that down for the next 4 months. In all seriousness, though, I never felt the need to...

Yeah, the whole time I watched that video I was closing my eyes thinking something was going to go wrong. Definitely don't think that's a good spot. Atleast not for me. Others may feel differently, though. It's what works for each person, so to each his own.

Thanks, Nelson, but I obviously must have done something wrong. I don't blame the method at all. Like I mentioned, I never get this on my left delt. That's where I pinned on Monday night, as a matter of fact, and didn't run into this issue. I have noticed pinning my right delt causes more...

I'm assuming I injected into a vein or something because of the reaction I immediately got literally seconds after the injection. I would assume a sensitive spot or nerve wouldn't cause that reaction, but I could be wrong. This is why I decided to post this to see if someone could provide more...
