Average Injection Beginner TRT Dose

I just did that and see that you did use the same numbers there and I missed the error at that time. Fortunately it doesn't matter—you're creating the blend as intended and the only other variable is the dose size; your first paragraph above correctly conveys the important information:

4:3 blend, 4 parts cyp to 3 parts prop (7 parts) by weight in mg
(When mixing, by volume it's 2:3 because cyp is 200mg/ml and prop is 100mg/ml.)
4:3 gives total of 7 parts for proportioning

The main thing is that the 4:3 ratio is by ester weights, mg TC versus mg TP. The different ester concentrations lead to the different ratio by volume, 2:3.
Got it, thanks

This may not clarify things, but for reference, here are the equations when the goal is to take a desired dose of testosterone and calculate the ester amounts with a 4:3 blend.

TT = dose of testosterone
TC = weight of TC in dose
TP = weight of TP in dose

TT = TC * 70% + TP * 83.7%
TC / TP = 4 / 3

Solving these equations for TC and TP:

TC = TT / (70% + 3 / 4 * 83.7%) = 0.753 * TT
TP = TT / (4 / 3 * 70% + 83.7%) = 0.565 * TT

In the example with TT = 5.6 mg you have TC = 4.22 mg and TP = 3.16 mg. The TC volume is 0.0211 mL, the TP volume is 0.0316 mL and the total dose volume is 0.0527 mL.

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
