How much oil max SubQ

[ridedivefx]

Hello good people,

What is the max recommend amount of oil (ml/cc) that can be taken SubQ with least risk of infection or trauma and bruising. I am fairly lean all over except lower abdomen area so SubQ is not an issue.

My regiment is EOD 40mg with Prop. Prop is pharm grade and dosed at 100mg/2ml -> 50mg/ml. To get 40mg I have to pin 0.8ml. This seems a large amount for EOD SubQ pinning.

I am doing IM currently rotating between 4 sites (shlders/legs). Can I switch to SubQ?

Many thanks

You are right. Too high of a dose and frequency for subq injections. Your chance to develop site reactions would be high.

You could switch from propionate to cypionate or enanthate to only inject twice per day only .25 ml at a time.

So if Cypionate or enanthate is dozed at 100mg/ml -> .4ml will be my required dose for 40mg

1. with EOD pinning and x2 pin (broken into .2ml) will be a lot of pinning in my abdomen area. Is .4 in 1 shot SubQ bad? Does any one else do this? I am quite lean on legs will have to pinch hard with my finger to grab the fat

2. If I still keep it IM can I use 29 or even 30G slin pin. I am currently using 27g .5" IM

3. With 29G or 30G the needle size is small. My shoulder are fairly lean but I fear the oil collecting between the fat layer and muscle layer. How do y'all avoid this or do y'all even worry about this?

thnx

ridedivefx, you only been on TRT for a short time right? Wouldn't it be better just to keep it the same until you have labs?

You are absolutely right. 4 weeks. Just wanted to get ahead of myself and learn the details of all option by experienced members. I want to keep EOD schedule, I back load all my syringes and want to minimize the slightest delay or discomfort by perfecting the procedure as this is life long.
