Unfortunately for me my first go around with T caused significant cystic and nodular acne and I was referred to a dermatologist.  I was put on 80 mg of accutane daily for 7 months.  I'm not going to get into it but it was a horrible experience and I would never recommend this course to anyone.

I have since been very regimented with my skin care.  Along with washing with both cetaphil and acne medicated soap 2-4 times a day, I also use a topical medication nightly.  Despite these effort the acne has returned (although not nearly as bad yet) once I started trt.  This is why I'm terrified to increasing my dose.

Although I haven't found a lot of literature on sub q injections, the fact that Dr. Crisler has had success with some of his patients is reason enough to at least try for an extended period of time.  I will be doing my next blood work in about 2 months so I'll see what the numbers say then.  I may try your method Nelson if I find that subq injections don't help with my estrodiol.

While I do expect that my problems with acne will increase with upping the dose is it inevitable that i will also become more muscular?  The close friends I mentioned in the first post are actually women that train at my gym so I doubt that they'd be jealous of my size lol.
