grapeseed? sesame? cottonseed oils?

[pchnyc]

I have been getting severe redness and itchiness within 24 hrs of injecting my test cyp SubQ, possibly due to the grape seed oil. I switched to my delt and where it has not been as bad, but there is still itchiness at about 36 hrs after injection (IM).
Has anyone else had this problem? They are going to switch me to sesame oil on my next refill. I know that everyone's bodies react differently etc...but i am trying to find out some others experiences given this is my first go at trt (been about 8 weeks). Any suggestions or advice or experience you can pass along would be greatly appreciated. It has been a bit of a nightmare.

GSO is usually the least irritable carrier oil. Sometimes the batch has too much BA or BB and that creates irritation. I've heard of labs actually including up to 10% Ethyl Oleate in batches to preserve stabilty at the end so they don't have lose the whole batch. 1 in 10 people have severe reactions to EO, I happen to be one.

Could injecting a larger volume also cause this? I have read not to inject over 1/2 cc/ml sub Q. I would also say to much BA or BB

Benzoic acid hypersensitivity, benzyl alcohol hypersensitivity, polyoxyethylated castor oil hypersensitivity, serious hypersensitivity reactions or anaphylaxis, sesame oil hypersensitivity, soya lecithin hypersensitivity
There is a risk of serious hypersensitivity reactions or anaphylaxis with the use of testosterone undecanoate (Aveed) oil for injection. These allergic reactions can occur after any injection of testosterone undecanoate during the course of therapy, including after the first dose. Observe patients in the healthcare setting for 30 minutes after an Aveed injection in order to provide appropriate medical treatment in the event of serious hypersensitivity reactions or anaphylaxis. The Aveed injection contains benzyl benzoate, the ester of benzyl alcohol and benzoic acid, and refined castor oil. Therefore, testosterone undecanoate use is contraindicated in patients with polyoxyethylated castor oil hypersensitivity, benzoic acid hypersensitivity, or benzyl alcohol hypersensitivity. Patients with suspected hypersensitivity reactions should not be re-treated with testosterone undecanoate injection. The testosterone enanthate injections are contraindicated in patients with sesame oil hypersensitivity. The manufacturers of certain testosterone products (i.e., AndroGel and Striant) state that their products are contraindicated in patients with soybean, soy, or soya lecithin hypersensitivity because they are derived partially from soy plants.
