At time I was reading around and have found out, that subcutaneous injections are so good or better then intramuscular injections. Nice and much easier to do.
So I have injected yesterday my weekly dose of T. enanthate subcutaneous in the belly.
It was very easy without any hurting. Much easier then intramuscular.
No pain afterward and it seems it is faster working. So I was feeling the effects very fast at morning.
Intramuscular it need around 3 days for me to feel any effect.
Wow!
Also there are many studies existent now and all sounds very good.
It also seems, you need only the half dose then intramuscular and its more stable.
Intramuscular I need 200mg per 5 days for stable levels. Now I should need 100mg... I test it.
If you not are a bodybuilder and using long esters, so it seems the subcutaneous method is the very better option.
Do it any others here subcutaneous?
Whats your experience?
A very good article/study:
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4721027/
=> you don't need this syringe, this is only for afraid TRT patients.
I'm using my ordinary 23G needle and go with 45 degree (it's better against flow back/out) ca 1cm deep (it is sliding lighter in, if you are in the fat layer with the needle) to inject it very easy and fast as ever. After removing needle I have massaged in it a bit and all was ok.

Day two now and I'm feeling very good!
Injection: nothing to feel or to see

(intramuscular was hurting the days after often)

Generally I'm n TRT now around two months and I have found now a good dosage (also AI) and I'm feeling very very good with it!
Libido and all sexual things are perfect. Also the memory, thinking and all around brain and also my bloodpressure and so on is very better then the years before. Wow!
I love it to be on TRT!
Also the subcutanous injection seems to really more stable as the intramuscular ones.
I have had no bad spike and can't feel a go down of the levels. It is as I'm on the natty testo from testicles. Nice!
So I'm now know, my testicles are not healthy anymore and senseless for me.
I was injecting again after long time 1ml ethanol yesterday in the right, so he will be destroyed on my urologist termin in january and can be cut out (but not from a doctor

). Also it's better he is destroyed for the talk with the urologist, why I'm on self administered TRT and why I need TRT from the insurance.

Thanks a lot for sharing this.
This could help me out a bit as I get muscle aches around the injection sites that last for days.

Try it! It's working very good on me and I also any time have had aches the after injection in the muscle.
I like it so and still my level seems to be very good after day six. Wow, this was intramuscular not possible for me to hold it so stable and I had to inject min. after five days.

I've been prescribed Depo-Testosterone three months ago. 0.75ml subcutaneous once a week. Testosterone levels returned to normal, so yes it works.

Generally I get one day a week where I don't have muscle pain, and I assume that's because the bolus of T-cyp is gone. If switching to sub-q works, I'll bring it up with my doctor at my earliest convenience.

Yes, read the articles in the internet. There are more and more studies about this theme and all with very positive results.
Only the doctors are not so willing to read much new articles to any of the themes, that are interesting. It was every time so and will made every time again so, why change the things, they are mostly thinking.
I'm one of the patients of reading much and often I have pushed my doc to new methods and to do better practice.
=> For TRT it is perfect. Only for bodybuilder cycles with higher ammount of oil it could be negative effects in the tissue, but this is also or more intramuscular an risk.
Doday I have given me a new dose of around 125mg and up to now my level was (relative high) stable on the whole last week.
Yes, perfect!

Well today was injection day and the pinning site was sore from last time.
So I gave it a go as I have done a bit more study on the internet and it has a lot going for it.
