[QUOTE="Re-Ride, post: 86954, member: 8395"] Sean, We are suspecting that your dosing started at 140 mg per week and was then adjusted to 132 mg per week. It's not unusual for newbs to confuse milligrams and milliliters. ["I use MG and ML interchangeably when referring to liquid volume"] Dosing testosterone, as with most other drugs, is always by weight (mg) not volume (mL). Testosterone cypionate is an ester in powder form which the pharmaceutical producer solubilizes in an inert oil so you can inject it. You correctly noted in your post that the strength of your preparation is 200 mg of drug per mL of preparation. The nurse or pt, as a practical matter, calculates the volume (mL) of preparation required to administer the prescribed dose (mg). Most of us are using syringes graduated in tenth of a mL. Every tenth of one mL delivers 20 mg of medicine in a 200 mg/mL strength preparation. Since we are always concerned in medicine and on the forums about dose, not volume of preparation posting volume is strongly discouraged as it inevitably leads to the confusion seen here. [/QUOTE]
