I found a TRT protocol that works
I did pellets for a couple of years and enjoyed the experience very much except for one thing: getting insertions four times a year for, say 15 years, leads to 60 incision in my rear end. I am also a bleeder, so i had to get the incisions stitched each time...no big deal. However, the incision...- psaufan

Lab Work - Can't Get Better It Seems - UPDATE
I moved from pellets to injections right at five years ago. I was initially with Low T Nation and they started me on test cyp and HCG from the get-go. I moved from Low T Nation to Defy a little over a year ago and Defy continued the test cyp, HCG and added B12, anastrozole, DHEA and a thyroid...- psaufan

IM Quad Injections
I was instructed by Defy to revert back to IM injections. So, I thought I’d try the quads. I use a 27g 1/2” set-up to inject 70mg of test cup. I injected into the outer quad - side - of the thigh. The injection was painless. The next day it was good...a small bruise. The second day, it...- psaufan
