I know some here combine the doses. Can you tell me technique and size syringe/needle you use? I’ll be using cypionate and pregnyl. Lure-Lok syringe or integral diabetic style?
Back when I was injecting testosterone, I used Easy Tough 29 gauge insulin syringes in the deltoids for shallow IM.Can you tell me technique and size syringe/needle you use?
Interesting point-worth some research.I used to do it but I don’t anymore as I have a hunch that the preservatives in the testosterone oil may break down the hcg protein… I may be wrong but I have no way to prove this.
Oil and water are not very prone to mixing, and in any case benzyl alcohol is a common preservative for both solutions.I used to do it but I don’t anymore as I have a hunch that the preservatives in the testosterone oil may break down the hcg protein… I may be wrong but I have no way to prove this.
Ditto. I also do with a 27g insulin syringe. I don’t have the patience for a 28 or 29 gauge. I’ve now half as many holes in my Delts which I alternate left and right EOD. I saw Nelson’s video years ago and have been doing for five or six years now.Insulin syringe. Been doing it for 6 years. Draw T first, it is more difficult to get the exact amount with the thicker oil carrier, can take a little push pull, expelling bubble etc. HCG none of that problem. Draw HCG slowly and don't overshoot, good to go. Do not draw air to inject into HCG vial.
Thank you. I’ve had three or dour posts over the past five years or so.Greeting @KatyTX, Welcome to the board!

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.
Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.
The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
