[QUOTE="bluerage, post: 10777, member: 2198"] 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. [/QUOTE]
