    T3 and rT3 - Treated with Cytomel

    I think the majority of my flatness is due to my diet. I was only eating around 100 - 200g of CHO a day. I really feel like I need to be more at least 300g a day. What I was eating: Protein: 300g CHO: 250g Fat: 125g I think I need to adjust this to: Pro - 250g CHO - 300g Fat - 125g Keep...

    T3 and rT3 - Treated with Cytomel

    I have only been on the T3 for about 3 - 4 months. He anticipates once I bump up to 25mcg for 3 months or so, my rT3 will drop and my Free T4 will come down along with it.

    T3 and rT3 - Treated with Cytomel

    I was told to pay attention to my resting heart rate. If it seems like my heat is racing or I start to feel crappy then I should lower my Cytomel dosage back down.

    T3 and rT3 - Treated with Cytomel

    This is exactly what I am experiencing. However, I noticed if I bump my carbohydrate intake up to around 250 or more a day, then I start to fill out more.

    T3 and rT3 - Treated with Cytomel

    I am not taking NDT or T4. I am strictly taking 15mcg of Cytomel (liothyronine sodium). My PA recommends of the Free T3 to rT3 ratio above 20%. Currently it is around 18%.

Currently my numbers are: Free T4 - 1.26 ng/dl Free T3 - 4.2 pg/dl rT3 - 23.2 ng/dl My dosage of Cytomel was just increase from 15mcg a day to 25mcg a day.

    TRT for 4 months - No change in labs

    Hey I just wanted to give you guys an update. It has been a couple minutes since I have switched from subQ to IM. One other change I made was adding back in the anastrozole. After a few weeks of IM my body order was horrible so I figured my estrogen was high. Since switching My labs were as...

    Horrible Body Odor with Testosterone Injections

    This is exactly my though too. I believe I experienced the same thing. I start the anastrozole and everything seem to calm down. I am not sweating as much and smell 100% better!

    Nelson is right, the shoulder in the best injection site...

    I agree with what you said. When stating absorption, I was assuming all other factors hormone/labs values, would be the same; being it is the same person. I am unsure how injecting in the left delt vs the right delt would make a difference. To answer the OP. I have not experienced this before...

    Nelson is right, the shoulder in the best injection site...

    I don't know what to say. It could just be a coincidence. The fact of the matter is, realistically, you probably wouldn't see a direct effect from the test cyp you inject a day before. Cyp is a longer acting ester and can take weeks to be fully absorbed. If you were using prop, I would be more...

    Nelson is right, the shoulder in the best injection site...

    I understand. Do you currently use HCG? or just the test? As far as the absorption, in theory, it should not matter which delt is injected. The only variation I could see is if were hitting a different part of your delt on the right vs the left. There are 3 heads of the deltoid and if you were...

    Nelson is right, the shoulder in the best injection site...

    No this is not about the size of the injection, it just happens. To reduce it, I inject and wait a couple seconds before pulling it out. If some does drip out, don't worry it happens. Wipe it off and move on. :)

    No. I have never heard of them but I will look at it tomorrow and let you know what I think.

    Replacement for EAS Myoplex?

    Have you every tried any MTS products? I used MTS Whey protein and it is absolutely the best tasting protein I have ever had. The PB cookies and cream or the Minth Cookies and Cream is amazing. Anyways, they have a MRP that is supposed to be pretty good. I haven't tried it but I think it would...

    Ibutamoren (MK - 667)

    The biggest difference I would say is the quality control. Even though it may be a reputable online peptide company, there are not quality control standards that will ensure what you are getting is what is on the label. There is a very good chance the product will be overdosed/under-dosed. If...

    What does your injection schedule look like? How often do you pin right vs left and how many times a week? Also, do you use HCG?

    Horrible Body Odor with Testosterone Injections

    Thanks. I appreciate it. It is just weird that I noticed it after I started the IM injections. I just really don't think I absorbed test very well with the subq injections. I know in theory it should absorb the same but I don't think it does for me.

    Horrible Body Odor with Testosterone Injections

    Thanks for the info. I will check it out. I am not really experiencing any increase perspiration, I sweat a lot normally, just an increase in order. It is horrible. I have been keeping an extra stick of deodorant with me at all times.

    Horrible Body Odor with Testosterone Injections

    I respectfully disagree. My showering habits nor my diet has changed. The only thing that has changed was the administration of my testosterone. I believe there are multiple article that site high estrogen causing body order in women. If it can cause body order in women, I believe in some...

    TRT for 4 months - No change in labs

    Yes usually one to two small bubbles. You do not want to see blood. And maybe I am a little overly cautious but for IM injections I always change my needle between drawing back the med and injecting.

    TRT for 4 months - No change in labs

    Once you push the needle in, you have draw back. If you are in the muscle, you will see small air bubbles; this process is called Aspirating. That is how you know you are in the muscle.

    Horrible Body Odor with Testosterone Injections

    I was just wondering if anyone else has experienced this before? And when I say horrible, I mean it. I will litterally take a shower, change my shirt, and an hour later I stink bad! I suspect I know the root cause of it but wanted to see what others thought. My thoughts: I was injecting subQ...

    Nelson is right, the shoulder in the best injection site...

    I recently just switched to injecting in my delts. After several month of injecting subQ, I wasn't seeing the results I thought I should. I have been pinning my delts for the last 4 weeks or so. The highest my TT was running .3ml 3 x week was 450. I haven't gotten my lab checked since I switched...

    TRT for 4 months - No change in labs

    I apologize for the delay. I use a 1 CC syringe and draw back to the number 3. I believe it is something like an u-100 easytouch syringe.

    TRT for 4 months - No change in labs

    That is what I am thinking. As of right now, I would think the dosing would be more than sufficient. So IMO it really comes down to either changing up the frequency or the location. That is really what I am going to have to decide on which one to focus first. No way I will do both because than I...

    TRT for 4 months - No change in labs

    I was planning on trying my 1/2" for my shoulders and quads. I am around 17-18% bf. My plan as of now is to run this for about 60 days and then get labs redrawn
