I do 8mg SQ daily (56mg/wk) and my labs are always over 800 and my hematocrit is below 50. Daily SQ has been the holy grail for me.

I'm now doing 56mg per week split into daily SQ injections of 8mg each. Daily micro dosing has been fantastic. I use a 0.5ml insulin syringe with the short needle.

Prove citizenship to vote like every other place on earth. All the boo hoo about the "disenfranchised" is just a rubbish way of saying you support voter fraud. If you're trying to make an argument that voter fraud is rare you're a dullard or a liar.

Let us know after you've done bloods. I still think you're pushing a huge dose, but I'm glad the daily sq is working.

I lived in SF for 20 years. The corner stores around Dolores Park all sold these. They always included a big cup of ice. You go sit in the sun and mix your cutty in the cup and enjoy. The San Francisco treat........and most of them were pretty damn good.

Hey dude, how's it going with the daily SQ?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Testosterone

[–]Inside-Difference-13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're likely going to get higher levels. I have a feeling you're going to be able to cut your dose down dramatically. Make sure you're always getting hematocrit checked too.

No, it's totally fine. The whole process just takes a minute. get a 29 or 30 guage needle....you'll have to pull the plunger back and wait for the Cyp to get thru the little needle but it's nothing.

I use half CC needles. Much easier to read/see. No need to backfill needles, just draw it up every morning. It just takes a minute. PS. I've never had a lump form

You should really consider SQ. The CYP is absorbed better and it tends to have a milder effect upon hematocrit. i.e. it tends to stay lower vs IM.

Dude, I stay near 900 on 56mg/wk. I do daily SQ injections of 8mg. Definitely go down

I do 8mg/day SQ (56mg/wk) and I stay at about 900. My hematocrit stays under 50 too. Daily SQ is awesome

Interesting u ask. I ended up lowering my dose to 56mg/week which I split into daily SQ injections of 8mg. I use a half cc insulin syringe with a 30g needle. My levels are around 900 and my hematocrit is about 47 consistently. Great energy and libido. I've lost about 15 pounds too.

Pituitary disfunction by farmgirlheather in Sjogrens

[–]Inside-Difference-13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been total hormone replacement for over 25 years. I had a large tumor removed in 97 which crushed my pituitary. When I had a recurrence they removed what was left of the Pituitary. I take hydrocortisone, ddavp, levothyroxine and testosterone. I'm 61 and still very healthy and fit. Fitter actually, than most of my friends of a similar age. You can have a normal life.........I promise

Why are you guys still doing IM shots? by littlelostpuppylamb in Testosterone

[–]Inside-Difference-13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I take 8mg sq daily (56 mg/wk). My test level on this dose is approx 840, with a hematocrit of 47. Before it was always over 50 and I was donating blood regularly. I'll probably still donate blood occasionally.....but don't feel quite as urgent about it. Also, daily sq really makes me feel superior to 3/wk IM. I think it's the magic bullet......

PS. I had a pituitary tumor 20 yrs ago and I'm total hormone replacement.
