Broke a full bottle of test. Help?

Well-Known Member
I just dropped by #2 full bottle of test and shattered the bottom. I picked it up and quickly inverted it and maybe 1/3 of the oil is still there. Do I just discard it or can I draw what's left out into my half used bottle?

Thanks for the advice.

Edit...after research I will just discard it. Thanks all! Been a long day...

I'm no expert but I would be concerned about getting very tiny shards or slivers of glass in my syringe when drawing. Obviously if it leaked out then there is cracked and busted glass. To me, it's cheap enough to replace, I would not risk it.

Others may disagree.
 
Perhaps you should consider a travel case to protect your testosterone vial. I would inject knowing there are tiny glass shards.

Take a picture of the broken vial and make a case for your doctor, maybe...
 
I broke one and did exactly that drew it all out in syringes. I think a glass shard being drawn up through a 29g needle (that I use) is a non-factor
 
Well, it's a risk because glass can be shattered into microscopic pieces that you can't see or detect and granted a 29 gauge needle is small but so is a microscopic piece of glass. Not worth it it my mind. Not much to gain by continuing to draw from the busted vial and a whole lot to lose on the down side. The risk/reward ratio says don't do it.
 
We'll just have to agree to disagree. It appears the OP did some research and tossed the busted vial.
 
Injecting a few minuscule fragments of glass subq wouldn't be an issue even if it could get through a 29 gauge needle. I'm full of shrapnel and still doing nicely.

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.
