Cool. I'm going to order some of those. I see that the longest needle they have is 1/2 inch. Is that long enough to get into the quad muscle comfortably?

Vince, do you draw the T with a bigger gauge?

Thanks all. Makes sense. I'll assume the T left in the needle is dead space. I'll also look at a different needle. I do IM. The 25 1" needle has worked well for me.

I hope this isn't the dumbest question thats ever been asked. I have scoured the forums and google and cannot find a real answer.....When you pull the testosterone from the vial all the tutorials say to pull it back to the prescribed dose. HOWEVER, after pulling the T in, if you then pull the...

Hey blackebob, I can definitely relate. I might up the dose sightly and see if that helps. I might also try a gel. I'm a few months away from my next appt though. Do you have to do any sort of taper from the test cyp to gel? Or could you just take your last shot, what a week or so and then...

I will make one more comment.....I rarely see anyone complaining about gels or creams. Typically people arrive here when things are not working. I'm sure there are plenty that have had issues with gels as well but wondering if giving that a shot might help.

Hey all, I thought I'd report back. The last five weeks I upped my dose and dropped the HCG. I'm currently doing 80mg test cyp E3.5D. So 160mg for the week. I've had two tests: The day after the shot: TT: 910 (264 - 916) FT: 21 (8.7 - 25.1) E2: 19 (8 - 35) The day of the next shot (but...

I hear you, lexer. Definitely got into early trouble constant chasing numbers. In this case, its more than just a "bad day". I'm fine with those and they happen. When I get this "mini crash", my join pain on a scale of 1 to 10 is a 7. Not trying to whine but it makes getting through the day...

Thanks ratbag and vince! Yeah, thats my plan. Will run that for 6 weeks and see how I feel. Will report back.

Yeah, it might be worth a shot. How are your numbers? I'm going to drop the HCG and switch to the bigger weekly dose. I'm going to go 100mg test cyp E5D. I know my peak on 100mg is in the 1100 to 1200 range. That should raise my e2 and put me in a good spot. After dialing in the test cyp...

Yeah, HCG has never given me the amazing well being that many talk about. I take to keep the testes from shriveling up. I'm going to drop that for 6 weeks and up my test cyp dose and see how that goes. I've learned all too well that each person is different. My low e2 is what I don't...

Not sure if I should start a new post or try to bump this. I now have an extra year under my belt and its been an interesting ride. I could use some advice on next steps as I have struggled to find the right approach. Here is an update on my labs and what I've gone through. First of all I...

Sorry for the confusion. I tried splitting my doses and that didn't work so I went back to the protocol I mentioned...100mg shot once per week. The last test I posted is from 3 weeks ago. I'm not sure about E2 III. Thats just the way its listed on my paperwork.

Yep, just did a quick edit to the original post. SHGB was not tested. Thanks.

I finally have my full set of lab results. Pre T - E2 III - 12.8 (6 to 38) Total T - 248 (249 - 846) %FTI - 33% (Range 34 - 106) FSH - 3.02 (1.27 - 19.26) LH - 2.3 (1.2 - 8.6) Prolactin - 5.24 (4 to 15) PSA Total - .65 (0 to 4) PSA Free - .26 Here are my test results after 6 weeks of 100...

Hey ERO, I broke my ejections up this week. 50mg T dose with 250iu hcg on Monday. Will do the other dose tonight(thursday). I didn't take the AI. This week I have been sweeting in my armpits during the day. I've never had that problem. Really bad sweating. I've also had pretty low energy...

I'll call my doc and see if he can post the results to my online portal and then I'll share. I think I felt better before the AI. I spent the last decade on about every anti depressant and having problems with libido. Workout like crazy withour many gains. I've noticed a significant...

Hey Paul-E, thanks for the reply. I don't have that number. When I was at my last appointment I just wrote down total, free and e2.

Hi, I have been on TRT for 2 months now. I had two tests performed pre trt. The total for the first was 234. The total for the second was 184. I don't have the numbers for free or e2 prior to trt. I am 35 years old have have been experiencing the standard side effects of low t for years...
