[QUOTE="madman, post: 186538, member: 13851"] Welcome! Nothing to feel stupid about. I was nervous when I first started knowing that not only would I be shutting down my hpta but also how I would feel in the coming weeks and what kind of journey it would turn out to be. It will be much easier and less painful injecting with a fixed insulin syringe 27-31G than using 22G mini-harpoons that are still used by some. After your first few shots, it will eventually become routine and you may even be one who looks forward to it. The biggest hurdle will be the first 6 weeks as once you introduce exogenous testosterone not only will your hpta shut-down within 2-6 weeks (depending on dose T) but your hormones will be in FLUX during the weeks leading up until they stabilize (4-6 weeks) and during this transition, you may experience ups/downs let alone something we call the honeymoon period where you feel euphoric due to the increased dopamine/androgen levels but it will be short-lived and temporary. Whether you decide to inject sub-q/IM there are numerous sites to use. You did not post your SHBG level as it is important to know and you do not need to jump into injecting 3X weekly (M/W/F). Many men with high/highish SHBG will do well injecting once or more commonly twice weekly (every 3.5 days) or in cases of low SHBG daily or EOD but even then it is not set in stone as some men with high SHBG feel better injecting more frequently. 150 mg/week is a fairly high starting dose and will most likely have your TT/FT levels very high let alone it will drive up your hemoglobin/hematocrit which is already on the high-end. In most cases, it is more sensible to start low (100 mg/week) and go slow. On average most men on trt are injecting 100-200mg/week.
