Testosterone IM vs subq injections and hematocrit

[MJ65]

Would Test IM injections increase RBC, HCT & Hemaglobin more than test subq injections. I already have elevated levels due to sleep apnea and want to choose the injection that would have least impact on those blood levels. I have read that subq is less likely to increase red blood counts.

Sub-Q and IM will increase RBC, HCT & Hemaglobin. Take care of your sleep apnea, before you start trt, you're just asking for more issues than you need. Fixing that will also help increase your testosterone levels.

I have a few friends that use sleep apnea machines. They told me that they rented them until they found one that worked for them. Now they wake up feeling like they had a good night sleep. They use them every night and are happy with the results.

I have a brother-in-law that uses one and even a nephew that needs one.
