How many are you using methyl b12 with trt? If so how much, how often, and what brand if using sublingual? Also did you notice any extra energy?

There are a number of excellent threads on the Forum on this topic. Here is one of them right on point.

Have you checked how much it raised your b12 levels Vince? I was thinking maybe every other day of taking it might be enough and to save a few dollars.

One reason I take it, I'm on Metformin. Metformin will lower my B12, Labs did show this. It's part of my Amazon subscribe and save, but I do think every other day would be fine.

Forget oral formulations

Cyanocobalamin, which is illustrated here, is one of two forms of B12 available commercially. Methylcobalamin displays more bioavailability. Doctors with experience managing androgen replacement use the latter far more often than the former.

To know if your B-12 is getting absorbed properly, is by labs and having your levels checked.

I'm taking 100units 2X wk MethylB12 1mg/ml. I was ok on my levels just felt a little sluggish (I have had very high stress levels for the last year). I did not notice the energy boost until I had missed a couple shots. I have taken 200 units and not noticed a bigger boost in energy. It's a small boost but I appreciate it.

Are you using Labcorp Serum B12 or a specialty test from somewhere? What is a good level?

Im trying the Jarrow sublingual referred to by Vince above. No noticeable effect but it's only two days in. I intend to use it daily and will have bloods B12 test in about a week. Ive never taken B12 or had it tested.

I haven't had my B12 levels checked for about one year, I was using true labs, now Cleveland Heart Clinic. https://www.excelmale.com/forum/showthread.php?8541-My-Latest-Cleveland-Heart-Clinic-Labs
At my last visit, they wrote down next lab order, which included vitamin B testing.
