[QUOTE="ivkonst2017, post: 208090, member: 42532"] And here we come again to the main point of the discussion: There is enough data that for many people sub q is not as effective as IM in achieving the expected serum concentrations. Which means that for this men sub q will not achieve optimal results. At the opposite site is the advantage of sub q over IM - easier to inject, less pain and scar tissue. So I think the advantages and disatvantages of both methods should be stated so the new users will make an informed decision - sub q easier to inject and less painful, but there is a chance it will not work well for you(we dont know what is the chance - 5 percent or 50). IM - you will 99 percent not have issues with serum concetrations according to the dose, but it is more painful, you need to rotate muscles and almost impossible to inject daily. If you are needlefobic and injection pain is a big issue for a guy new to TRT best is to start sub q. But in my perspective I would never do that knowing what would be the result. For me this is taking a chance of sacrificing the outcome for inferior benefits. For me and many other guys I know feeling best and getting the most out of therapy is the most important. I know guys who would inject few times a day IM every day if this would give them enough benefits over their current protocol. So no matter what we choose there are benefits and downsides, the question is what matters most for you. [/QUOTE]
