Hey All!
Me: 62 year old male with a starting T (March 2022) of 240. Began bi-weekly T injections (0.25ml of Testosterone Cypionate 200 mg/ml) 90 days ago and now T level is 160. Doc (a GP) says continue injecting 0.25 bi-weekly. Not what I expected to hear. Thoughts, please???
Why am I on...
Got blood work done and Dr. prescribed
.25ml subcutaneous shots twice a week of cypionate. I'm 51 and overweight by 35 pounds. I am reading constantly here and online trying to figure out dosage but still confused if this dosage is normal or not. Just started yesterday, so obviously no effect...
So I noticed that my medication, whether it be testosterone, clomiphene, or anastrozole Always has a discard date of around four months from the time I received it in the mail. I found this strange because typical pharmacy medication is usually good for two or three years. So I gave My HRT...
About a month ago, I switched from 2x a week IM (3.5 each time) to 2x a week Sub-Q (same). Drawing oil into that insulin needle is excruciatingly slow and makes me wonder if there is a better way? The injection itself is wayyyyyy easier than IM, but the process is slow. I haven't gotten the...
How many hours after I inject cypionate would I test the highest? How many hours before the injection would I test the lowest? Is it as simple as just before the next injection?
I am on an EOD schedule.
I'm trying to gain better insight into how various protocols affect the rate at which T. Cyp. builds up in the system (e.g., weekly vs. 3x week vs. daily). My understanding is that the half-life of T. Cyp. is 8 days. So if you inject 100mg on Day 1, there is approximately 50mg remaining in your...
I've been using 15 mg of test prop daily for a few weeks now. I rotate between six injection sites. Lab values are right where I want them to be. I am kind of a stoic so I tend to ignore side effects but I finally realized yesterday that all six of my injection sites are achy and/or inflamed...
Good Morning,
When I started I read various things about the half-lives of TCyp and TEnan. 7 days. 10 days. One has a 1 day longer half life because of the longer ester.
I am aware that half-lives of all medications vary depending upon the patient. But a good estimate has clinical value for...
I believe that the Carrier Oil used in these companies Testosterone Cypionate is:
Miglyol-812. This is a pharmaceutical grade MCT Oil (Medium Chain Triglycerides).
Lab Pharm
Axiolabs
British Dragon
Sxiroxx
Apricot Kernel Oil:
Dragon
Grape Seed Oil:
Kalpa
Cotton Seed Oil:
Pfizer...
I've recently ditched the 18g drawing needle for a 27g (same as I inject with).
I'm finding that half the time when I stick the needle in the cyp bottle and pull down on the plunger, I get no test/oil.
I generally start by drawing 0.2ml of air into the syringe which I inject into the cyp...
I'm wondering if any of you have found the same.
When I go without AI, libido is dead, there is no morning wood, and erections need to be forced.
Brain fog also increases.
Taking .75mg - 1mg anastrozole remedies that by next morning (dramatically). Easily measurable.
Brain fog also...
I've had this thing for a while where I wake up during the night.
On my first 3 nights of cyp I find that I'm waking up more often.
Has anybody experienced something similar?
I'm not more tired, and I haven't given the levels a chance to stabilize of course. I will just continue on at this...
Look at the photo with the loaded syringe, the other is just to show the number of lines to 1 ml.
Found it ridiculously hard to estimate how much this is.
I was on gel, trough levels were 880ng/dl. I skipped the gel yesterday morning and took instead 0.2 ml of a 200 mg/ml vial.
At 3:30 AM I woke up feeling really anxious in cold sweat.
Do you reckon this is because the levels shot up too high?
Or allergies to the oil?
Edit: Isn't this a bit...
What needle size can I get away with? I'll never inject more than 0,2ml (in cottonseed oil).
Doctor wants me to do subq but I believe I'll do IM.
And do you have any tips for muscles? I'd prefer not to do delts and was thinking about starting with quads.
I'm going to ask a questions that have been asked a bunch of times before.
I'm moving from gel to cypionate, even though my levels on the gel are reasonable.
A few things:
* I seem to be very sensitive to medium-high levels of E2
* I have high levels of SHBG.
1. Have any of you felt that...
Hi guys,
I'm very sensitive to medium to medium high E2. I feel like absolute shit, depressed, anxious, low libido.
I talked to a new doctor who wants to put me on subq test Cyp and HCG:
As far as I understand there's more aromatase in the fat, and so I'd think I would aromatise more with...
Do you know of any clinics that offer remote treatment when you're living in another EU/EEA country?
I know of balancemyhormones in the UK, but I figure Brexit might cause problems.
As for why I'm looking into this, I'm on TRT and they only prescribe Testogel/Nebido where I live.
I created the plots below using a tool from another site, which I'm sure many of you have seen before. I'd like some clarification as to whether or not the way I'm interpreting the data is correct.
I'm aware of the ester weight/percentage for the two esters being compared, and that 120mg cyp...
I had all my needles lined up tonight. Injected testosterone cyp first, then I mistakenly used the same needle for HCG. Is this going to taint my bottle of HCG (oil and water)?
Attached is my recent sperm analysis (July 1st, 2020) and my HCG & T protocol.
For the past 2.5 years I’ve been taking 300 IU’s .1 2x week HCG and 80mg .4 2x week T Cyp. My testes have mild atrophy, but decent sperm load and I notice a difference the longer I go without HCG. I decided to get...
hey guys!
I still have doubts about TRT.
I started with a 66mg weekly dose. I had some acne and increased libido. but I think I'm getting in the way with the drop in testosterone on day 7. However I have been studying the option of using 2x week 50mg.
What do you recommend? what ideal range of...
I am looking to mix cyp and prop at home to make my own blend to experiment. After trying many different protocols I am currently doing the typical protocol of cyp at 100mg and Hcg at 700iu per week Split into two injections Monday morning and Thursday night. I did a trial daily run of daily...
Hello knowledgeable ones!
Well its been over two months since I started my TRT journey. Hope you guy's don't mind me asking you a few questions. I was reading over the How long does TRT take to show effects thread and it would appear I'm already past some of the weeks to see certain...
I'm on daily subcutaneous testosterone cypionate injections and my doctor always has me do my labs in a 4-5 hour window post injection.
I know T levels are pretty stable on daily injections but does anyone know the timing of the peak and trough for daily subq cypionate injections?
I just want...
I cant find info online or if the info from my book is correct. Basically when we take X amount inject able testosterone our bodies only uses X amount as bio-available?
I.E from the "definitive TRT manual"
100mg Injectable Propionate yields 83mg
100mg Injectable enanthate yields 72mg...
Howdy all. I self-prescribed myself to T Gel 3 months ago, the results were amazing in getting rid of my symptoms (low energy, depression, bad sleep, poor recovery, etc - despite a healthy diet and all). Anyway fast forward 3 months, I realized I'll be doing this long term so I hooked up with...
I have posted a few times about my challenges with e2 management. Well, I gave up trying to dial in with Arimidex, and decided to reduce my dose. My first reduction was from 140 to around 120. It wasn’t fun, but I managed. After 6 weeks my e2 was still running hot, so I went down to about 100 a...
Hypothetically speaking I am injecting 70 mg of testosterone cypionate 100 mg/mL every 4 days. So that’s 7/10 of 1 mL syringe. Now let’s say you’re injecting 70 mg of testosterone cypionate 200 mg/mL which would be 3.5/10 of 1 ml syringe. Would the higher concentration of the 200mg/ml hit...
