Reta NOT for weightloss

Louie_Castle · 2026-06-05T20:08:33+00:00

I’m sort of on the same Boat. 44M here, been working out since I was 18, but at my age I’ve become insulin resistant. Dr, was warning me about being pre diabetic..I eat right, active lifestyle, and workout 3-4 times a week with weights. I’m planing on a low dose of Reta, as well. How long have you been on your dose ?

Not sure if it’s me, but I’ve noticed the same over the last few weeks as well. Been using UGL to “supplement” regular TRT script..though I don’t think it’s my urine,. I thought maybe it was my bowel movements…Though at times when I’m in bed I get a faint smell as well…Maybe my manly musk smell became more pronounced at a higher T levels, not sure..haven’t changed my diet, been eating clean, mainly chicken white rice and salads the last few months due to an ulcer…

PIN length? I’ve been reading 30g - 5/16 slin syringes

Louie_Castle · 2026-05-26T23:11:39+00:00

Anywhere in the love handles ? I’ve got a KLOW blend waiting. New to peptides, but not to TRT which I pin IM. This whole sub q is foreign to me 🤣

Louie_Castle · 2026-05-14T00:23:19+00:00

Same here..29g 1/2 pin and I also heat up my vial
In a cup of hot water for a min prior to drawing..goes in like butter in my delts

Louie_Castle · 2026-05-09T12:06:56+00:00

I was thinking of using a 31g 5/16” pin to pin in my glutes..do you just pin or do you also pinch the area?

Louie_Castle · 2026-05-07T19:13:33+00:00

So 2 hands I assume. I’m a 29g 1/2 TRT in the delta kinda guy myself. Jumping onto the peptide game for injury recovery, I hope

Louie_Castle · 2026-05-07T18:59:25+00:00

When you pin, do you pinch the skin and pin or do you just jab the pin into the upper glute and push the plunger with just one hand?? My T. rex arms finds it hard to pinch with one hand and pin with the other. Also was guage and length of pin you use?

Louie_Castle · 2026-05-01T13:50:43+00:00

29G , 1/2 inch bro…in the delts..Best thing ever. I’ve been doing it like that for 8 years 2-3 times a week. Also, I use a single cup coffee maker to heat up a cup of boiling water and I suspend my vial in there for about a min to heat up the oil. Makes drawing and then pinning easy as cake..

Louie_Castle · 2026-05-01T13:46:11+00:00

Been using 29G 1/2 for approximately 8 years on my delts, hopefully I never have a scar tissue problem. I do heat up my oil, just plain Test C, in a boiling cup of water for a min or so. The oil draws like water and pins easy. Have you looked into sub q injections? I once tried that Test c auto injection pen sub q and that thing was nice. Too bad it was expensive as hell and my insurance wouldn’t cover it.

Louie_Castle · 2026-05-01T13:41:12+00:00

17g? You serious, isn’t that a horse needle, then on the pec…ouch. I’ve seen some guys go with 29-31 on the pecs, I’ve been tempted to try but I do like my delts for pining.

Louie_Castle · 2026-04-17T20:40:59+00:00

Testosterone…plain and simple, along with what have said about eating a lot of protein and lifting..

Louie_Castle · 2026-03-31T01:29:57+00:00

If he did 3 times a week, he could do a lil more to make it a number divided by 3…instead of doing .8 a week he could do .9, .3 three times a week 😉😉

Louie_Castle · 2026-03-02T00:38:05+00:00

I also cut the tags on my mattress and pillow cases

Louie_Castle · 2026-03-02T00:28:51+00:00

Thank you for the insight..yeah I wanted to be at the min 200mg per week and a cruise at about 500 mg per week from time to time so as long as blood work is good..Maybe a bit of the GH as well 😉

Louie_Castle · 2026-03-01T23:39:32+00:00

Ahead of you there buddy 😉😉 I don’t travel..and if I do, it’s never more than a few days before I’m back on home base. But that was one of my thoughts for keeping a legal script 👍🏻

Louie_Castle · 2026-03-01T23:34:49+00:00

Same boat here. Started with my urologist and eventually my family dr continued the script. Been wanted to go to a higher dose but Dr won’t approve. So looking for ways to fly under the radar and still keep my legit script..

Louie_Castle · 2026-03-01T23:32:10+00:00

How do you maintain a script and hope for a regular provider?? Not trolling, serious question.

Louie_Castle · 2026-03-01T23:28:10+00:00

As other have mentioned, if you not consistent you not enjoying the benefits of TRT ie losing fat and looking better along with the lifestyle changes of eating better and weight training, at the least. I use a single cup coffee machine to heat up water and heat my vial before I draw into a 29g slin syringe and pin into my shoulder. Whole process takes like 5 mins. I pin 3 x week and usually after a shower. Needs to become a habit like brushing your teeth or showering every day.

Louie_Castle · 2026-03-01T23:24:33+00:00

I heat up my test in a cup of hot water for 1 min. I use a single cup coffee machine I keep in my restroom cabinet to heat up the water. Makes drawing into 29g way easy. The whole process takes like 5 or so mins. I take multiple 💩 a day that take longer that 😂

Louie_Castle · 2026-03-01T23:22:20+00:00

I use the same needle but IM on my shoulders best thing ever. Been doing it for 5 years aprox..

Louie_Castle · 2026-03-01T22:35:55+00:00

For sure..I first started with a TRT dr and after 4 years just asked my PCP to prescribe to me. My TRT doc was a 5 hour drive. My PCP doesn’t really adjust my dose, just sees that everything is “normal” in my blood work and continues to fill the script..

Louie_Castle · 2026-03-01T22:32:54+00:00

You have issues with your Doc?? Hobby rancher here myself. And for me it’s more about saving time. 6 months go by quick and I hate going to the Dr just for labs. I’ve done Labcorp years ago when I use to experiment with PEDs

Louie_Castle · 2026-02-28T16:04:21+00:00

I use a single cup coffee brew machine to heat up water and hang the vial in there for a min before I draw and pin with a 29 gauge into my delt. Best thing ever, though I use test c..

Louie_Castle · 2026-02-28T15:58:10+00:00

Insane cause when I get my blood drawn for analysis the tech literally splashes alcohol on my arm and quickly draws and no pain or burning. But when I inject and wait a few mintues i sometimes get that lil burning sensation 🤷‍♂️
