So, I took my normal injections this past Friday and I think I hit a vein while injecting into my right delt. I'm using 1/2" 28g insulin needles, but as I was finishing I noticed the needle had come out just as I was finishing the injection. All of a sudden I started sweating really bad, having...

I've noticed I get acne on my scalp a day after my injection. I still get it on my back a little tiny bit, but it's not as bad as when I first started. I often also get one pimple on my face after my injection (usually by my nose or chin), which I would never frequently get before TRT. Lucky for...

The only way I'd really consider taking something is if others on this board have either tried it with success or one of the doctors says studies have been done and the results are positive. I learn a ton on this site, but I also read other sites for additional information. No matter what...

Yes, I'm sorry I mean Monday PM and Friday AM...I checked my Medisafe app to verify. You are correct, though.

I've read a few sites on the good ol' interweb that some people use progesterone creams to help reduce estrogen levels and has even helped with gynecomastia as opposed to using aromatase inhibitors. Has anyone used it for this purpose or had experience with it?

That's one thing I also didn't mention, but didn't know if it was related to HCG or not. I have noticed the same for me about how it's hangin. It didn't do anything to my erection size (wishful thinking), but definitely changed my flacid size and always seems like it's "full". That's normally...

Based on information posted on several other posts, I was under the impression there IS a trough injecting E3.5D. From my understanding, the trough would be the morning of the next AM injection (before the injection). I would suppose you would want to have your blood drawn as close to the next...

I'm taking 500iu E3.5D. I was prescribed 1,500iu once per week, but after reading several posts (including Dr. Saya's studies) on here I figured it was best to take 500iu twice per week. When I wasn't taking HCG, I would get shrinkage quite a bit. Also, before I was only on TCyp without HCG. I...

Wow, this is further proof that many of us continue to learn more and more with responses such as those by CoastWatcher and Dr. Saya. I greatly appreciate your responses, along with the others as well. TRT has definitely improved my quality of life to this point, but it sounds like my sweet...

Yup, I'm with you on that one. I think it would be very interesting to see what my numbers look like at that very moment when I've got that SUPERMAN feeling. Again, I don't want anyone getting me wrong on this. I feel a LOT better now that I'm on TRT, but those special days were nothing short of...

Good luck, Brother! I may be headed that way soon, myself!

So, I got a call back from the nurse today. She seemed to be in a much better mood than the last time we spoke. She said she spoke to the doctor and he agreed that reducing the Anastrozole dosage to .25mg would be fine. Then she said he wanted me to stick with the twice a week schedule, though...

I agree with you, PAUL-E. Like I said, I'm feel waaaaaay better than I used to. Was just hoping to find a special formula, we'll say, to get me and keep me in that sweet spot. I love what TRT has done for me, to this point. So, I can't wait to see how things will progress and get better for me...

PAUL-E and others, I absolutely agree! I am definitely better off than I was before I stated TRT, but I did hit a sweet spot a few times where it was fantastic! I do feel a lot more energy now than before, a ton of mental clarity, the libido has definitely increased, and my workouts are awesome...

I couldn't agree more. That happens when you receive bad treatment from some doctors. This is precisely why I plan on switching to Defy.

Thanks for your response, CoastWatcher. Based on my lab work taken 4 days after a 200mg TCyp injection (no HCG, at the time), my levels were as follows: Total Testosterone = 300-1080 ng/dl : 1,309 Calc Free Testosterone = 4.8-25.7 ng/dl : 42 Estradiol = 0.5-5 ng/dl : 11 Honestly, this was my...

I have a question/idea about chasing that sweet spot, mostly all of us look to experience. Since I started TRT, I've only felt that feeling twice. The first time was when I first switched from 200mg TCyp every two weeks to 200mg once per week. But then I didn't feel it after the first 2 days...

I reached out to Empower about a week and a half ago to see if I could get my Anastrozole refill sent to me in a .25mg dose instead of the .5mg dose. They sent a refill request with those notes to my doctor's office to see if it would be approved. I called Empower back today and they told me...

Thanks, Vince! This makes me feel more comfortable knowing others are also doing this without any issues!

Thanks Re-Ride, I'll go out to my local welding supply store and find some argon at lunch today. Sarcastic responses such as this are what makes new members not want to post anything. The fear of not wanting to look like an idiot asking a question about something we are starting to learn about...

I bought that one first and it was too small. Works ok, but wasn't big enough for my needs.

I would need to read up on it some more, but I'm not personally scared of needles anymore. My first 5-10 pins were rough, but with the right needles you don't even feel much at all. I was using "harpoons" as Jackie Treehorn describes them. I couldn't agree more with him on that one. I guess I'm...

Thanks, PAUL-E. It's actually a locking cash box. I got it on Amazon for $18.99 (link below). Underneath the top section is additional open storage space where I store my extra supplies like the 10 pack bags of additional syringes, 3ml syringes for my Lipo-C, and my scripts, as well. I love it...

As shan1784 mentions, I also have 3 teenagers in my home, as well as an 11 yr old. Because of this, I purchased a medicine case with a lock and a sharps snip (blue nail clipper looking thing on the pic below) for needle disposal from Amazon. The sharps snip hold ups to 1,500 needles in it after...

Thanks for your responses, everyone. What I'm referring to, so there's no confusion, is the amount of time a vial of meds can continue to be used after you've punctured it the first time for the first draw. I noticed this on the CDC website: "If a multi-dose has been opened or accessed (e.g...

Not trying to resurrect an old post, but I bought this case at Walmart for $7.95 for traveling with my HCG. I've tried it once and the case stays cool with the frozen pack for about a day. When I got to the hotel, I simply placed the entire bag (opened) in the fridge and placed the ice pack in...

As most of us on the forum, I am using Testosterone Cypionate and injecting multiple times per week. With my previous compounding pharmacy, I was getting 5 - 2ml vials. Since I switched to Empower Pharmacy, I've been getting 2 - 5ml vials. After looking on GoodRx, I found a coupon for the 10ml...

I just bought one myself and I really like it. It's really small and simple to use, not to mention cheap! It fits perfectly in my medicine chest I keep all my supplies in. The device says it stores 1,500 needles and I can only guess how many clipped, 1cc syringes fit in a 4lb empty protein tub...

I've never purchased the 27g. I use the 28g 1/2" Easy Touch and this is where I got mine: http://diabetessupplies4less.com/shop/easy-touch-28g-1cc-100ct-12-in I noticed they have these in 1/2cc, too (link below). That might be convenient for those who pin ED or EOD since the amount during...

They also sell this product on Amazon. BD Safe-Clip Needle Clipping and Storage Device https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000VE6KB8/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_6LOpxb1NP4SST I think you can just throw the syringe directly in the trash if the needle is clipped, no?
