my doc (who's my friend too) tells me there's no need to do more than 150mg /w , but i still cruise on 250mg it puts me somewhere around 1200 or 1300 ng/dl and i like it and fine with it, just need to take more AI's i now take letro 1.25mg (half tab) eod, but been a while since the last time i checked my bloods and see my estro level, cuz i'm feeling a bit dry now, specially in my elbows (and of course my old AC joint problem is aggrevating)

Hey
Thanx for the reply
For me I had to stop taking the extra T , I have an appointment with a new endo beginning of nov.
And he wants blood tests done.
Plus my body was telling me it needed a break.
But mud November I'm gonna start a new cycle, and fix he mistakes I made on the first one.
For one, my body fat % was higher then it should have been,it didn't really cause more sides, possibly higher blood pressure, but I won't know that for sure till next time.
But because my metabolism gets so high, I was having to take in so many calories just to maintain my weight.
It sucks the body won't just use new calories to build muscle, it wants to maintain your weight first, even if it's fat!
Lol
But the lower I get my weight , and lean out, I'll have more calories to go towards building muscle

Well finally have another appoint with a new endo coming up this Monday nov 7
Hopefully this guy is better, at this point I don't need an endo to get me better, but he can at least order some tests that the reg doc can't.
And with any luck he will take over giving me the scrip for the test, and let me do it on my own.
Going every week to the doc for a shot has gotten real old after a year!

Endo appointment went well, numbers look good, but the best part was he told me , it's not about just numbers, he said I want to know how u feel.
In the end, he's happy wih my current dose, and said as long as I'm feeing good on, let's keep it there.
He's going to suggest to my family doc that I start doing injections myself, and he doesn't want to comply, to come back and he will take over that part of my treatment.
He also suprized me by talking about soft tissue injection instead of intramuscular injection.
He says, all the tests they've done show the oil is absorbed into the body at the same rate.
So I thought that was cool that he into new ways of doing things.

congrats bro ur finally on the right track.
and btw ur doc is right u can inject in fat deposits and have a normal absorption but i think it will have a small delay then injecting directly in the muscle, and it should be limited to small quantities like 0.5 ml or 1 ml per injection or else u gona have a big lump under ur skin and it'll take time to disolve, of course we're talking about areas surrounding the glutes the hips and the abdomen.
drawing the oil with a slin pin will take forever (u may heat the solution a bit b4 doing that) and it's irritating after injection but still doable.

Cool, thanx for the info.
According to the endo , he says the main study they did in Canada , confirmed that a regular TRT does of 100 mg could be injected into the fatty tissue.
Got a question for u, I'm starting another cycle shortly, since I'm on TRT, I'm not go an go crazy with the doses.
I know I can gain on smaller amounts, so I'm just sticking to 300 a week.
Now since at the moment , my TRT injections are still being given by my doc, he gives me 125 on a wed, and I was thinking just give myself 175 on a sat.
I know the 2 injections should be even, but for convenience sake, will it make a big difference to have one shot 50 mg larger?
Until he gets me going doing my TRT myself I have to make these changes.
Thanx

don't worry u'll be fine with that, and maybe u can do another 2 125 mg shots means ur doc does one 125mg shot and u do the other 2 a total of 3 125mg shots (375mg test). if ur doc pins u on wed. u do mon. and fri.
