[QUOTE="Vtail, post: 138624, member: 38279"] Bumping an old thread: I started TRT about 2 months ago with Test-Cyp (cottonseed oil). I initially started with 50mg E3.5D injecting sub-q into belly fat (after first cleaning the vial and site with alcohol). I was prescribed 200mg/ml, so I was injecting 0.25 ml and I had no problems at all for 6 weeks or so. A couple of weeks ago my dose was increased to 60mg E3.5D, or 0.30 ml for each injection. With that dose/volume increase, I now get what looks and feels like a big mosquito bite at the injection site. This past injection site got so annoying that I have been using hydrocortisone cream for the itch, and the itch lasts 4-5 days. It almost seems like an allergic reaction, but I was going along fine until the dose increase. Otherwise there have been no other noticeable changes with the increased dosage. I'm due to inject again tomorrow morning, and am considering switching to IM. Are there any issues with switching to IM as far as labwork goes? Should I wait another 6 weeks when changing from SQ to IM before checking blood levels? [/QUOTE]
