[QUOTE="madman, post: 105540, member: 13851"] The difference in half-life between enanthate and cypionate is negligible, sure enanthate may be slightly faster acting but regardless of the minor differences in the esters between the two there are many other factors which effect the rate at which the testosterone is released from the oily depot at the injection site. Volume of injection/ injection depth/site of injection/lymphatic flow/concentration of BOH (benzyl alcohol) are other possible factors which can effect absorption rates of the esterified hormone. As far as testosterone esters 100 mg of enanthate= 72 mg active testosterone and 100 mg cypionate= 70 mg active testosterone. Now when looking at propionate there is definitely a big difference in the active amount of hormone as 100 mg propionate= 83 mg active testosterone compared to either enanthate/cypionate. You state you are injecting 190 mg/week..........................Systemlord makes an important point you need to know your SHBG first and foremost as it will dicate your injection frequency/protocol and of course you need to post lab work showing total t, free t, estradiol (sensitive assay), dht, prolactin, dhea, thyroid panel, cbc (complete blood count) among other health markers to develop a better understanding of how your hormones/body chemistry are being effected by your protocol ( testosterone dose/injection frequency). Hard to believe you would just inject once weekly without knowing your shbg as if your level was low than injecting once weekly would result in poor results/effectiveness. [/QUOTE]
