Re: Subcutaneous Injection
so what does everyone think? This is the route I had wanted to take but actually listened to everyone else...for once,lol
Re: Subcutaneous Injection
if you think about how most sub q compounds are done they are done in water. why is that? because it will release into your system much faster. now if you go in and put oil in your fat it is going to take a hell of a minute to absorb. that leaves you with a better chance of having pain and getting an infection. if you have ever hit in between a muscle or something like that where the oil doesnt get into the muscle it is extremely painful for a while. no way in the world i would deliberately put an oil based compound in sub q for those very reasons. ouch
Re: Subcutaneous Injection
The article was based on "Female to Male Transgender Patients"
That is in no way the world any of us are living in.
Muscle for Test and oil based products. Sub-Q is for peptides.
Re: Subcutaneous Injection
the .GOV web address of this article was the first clue that something was wrong about this writing. Then after read it and thinking a bit I refused the findings. Then read Guns01 post. Conclusion Bull Shit article.

I have read this done by some others on a few other forums. Some with good feedback and some not
Re: Subcutaneous Injection
I was talking to a trt dr. buddy of mine he was telling me about it. He still recommends IM for now. I have no interest.
Re: Subcutaneous Injection
IM for me as well when it comes to oils.

i always thought of it like this: why roll the dice of either getting an abcess or some serious pain for an extended period of time? if i want a product that is going to release slower or stay in my system longer i will go with test u or something similar but still i like to keep my levels as close to stable as possible and have no fluctuations going on. i wont knock anyone for doing it but to me the risk we take has to be ripe with rewards. i have had some really bad hits in my time to self inflicted so i will not be doing something i know could hurt like a mother for a long time haha
Re: Subcutaneous Injection
I am on TRT and sub Q is all I do. no more intra muscular shots for me. way easier, no need to aspirate (although I do) painless. I just shoot into the stomach. I do not use a tuberculin syringe. I just use a regular 3 ml with a 23ga pin. much faster to fill with a 20ga pin and shoot with the 23ga.
I have not gone more than 1ml though. normally 1/2 ml for my TRT but when I switched 2 years ago my numbers did not change even one bit. So it does work.
this is the vid I used as for instruction.
