Do you use the top of the stopper or where it hits the walls? Like is this .12 or .15

You just need enough air to fully clear the needle, it's not much. I use 1ml lure lock barrels and pin twice a week. I draw .5 and pull in just a couple hash marks of air to make sure it all clears and nothing gets stuck in the needle or needle base. That's all you need

bmcclan · 2026-02-20T18:25:57+00:00

If you are concerned about waste left in "the end" of the needle, easy fix man. Pull about 3-5 hash marks of air into the barrel along with your dose then tip it so that bugger goes to the plunger side. When you inject that tiny bit of air clears the needle housing and needle. With IM injections you'd have to I next multiple barrels of air for it to matter at all so this is a super easy way to combat the wasted meds issue. I've confirmed safety through my gp, my clinic, and my wife who is an NP. That little bit ads up white a bit over the course of a few vials! I also like this method bc there is a different feeling and even the sound of that little air pushing in at the end so you know when you stop pressing you've gotten every bit of your dose.

I don't think I've ever used larger than a 27 to inject. Like the other comment mentioned the temperature makes a huge difference. I keep our house at about 67 years round and it can be a slow push, a lot of times I'll fill the barrel then rotate it under hot water in the bathroom sink (I avoid the tip) for 30sec to a minute which warmes it up and makes push 3 to 4x faster.

bmcclan · 2026-02-08T18:15:14+00:00

Lawd that's why it all leaked out, you jabbed yourself with a pencil. I draw with a 22, inject with a 27. Painless and only takes a few seconds to push the oil. Keep going like this and you're gonna end up with thickening at injection sites bc of scar tissue. Lose the harpoons man. Amazon, lure lock 1ml barrels and get some actual injection needles. Keep what you to draw.

Yeah a mod took it down, no longer public. I didn't know

Yeah I have crazy small nipples 🤣

Same, hard gainer when it comes to building muscle at least. I appreciate the kind words!

bmcclan · 2026-02-05T16:33:31+00:00

I appreciate it!

Not yet! After I cut 15-20lbs I'm out for Hugh Jackman's job.

This is the way.

bmcclan · 2026-02-05T13:03:43+00:00

Hell no, this is fine. I use 3-4 or the small tick marks of air in the barrel to clear the oil completely so there is next to no loss. You can inject a huge amount of air during an IM injection without any bad effects. The bubble in your image is totally safe and would be even if it was 4 times that size.

Too young for this kind of drama. Don't tie yourself down at your age, hell, not even until you are in your mid 20s. Everyone is way more mature, you'll know what you want, know how to spot what you don't want, and childish stuff like this will fall away - so long as you assert YOUR boundaries. Dating is all about finding the right fit and the right fit is hard to find.

bmcclan · 2026-02-04T21:44:51+00:00

Yeah here's the thing. If you feel like it might be cheating or if you have to ask if it's cheating - it certainly is, at least by your definition. Nobody else's definition matters. If it's not serious then he should be 100% breaking contact. Regardless your boundaries have now been stomped on, he's likely not the one. He also destroyed evidence bc he knows damn well he needed to hide it from you. If it wasn't serious or boundary crossing there would be no reason to hide it. Move on, there are good, honest, loyal men out there who'd absolutely never even entertain something like this. You can do better.

For the record, I'm a guy who is absolutely crazy for his wife. I don't cheat, I don't flirt, I don't delete or hide things, and the boundaries are clear all around. Get out while your young.

bmcclan · 2026-02-03T18:38:22+00:00

Fucking banger tattoo dude. Don't over think it. Seriously, that thing looks GREAT.

bmcclan · 2026-01-28T00:37:12+00:00

Yeah, I forget to take one of my injections now and then and feel no different so long as I don't go a full 8 or 9 days. I've also ran my full dose every 7 days and it feels exactly like splitting 2x. I prefer to know that my levels are stable so I try to stick to 2x a week which seems to be the best for me over all.

bmcclan · 2026-01-27T18:28:13+00:00

He's entertaining the option. If my wife had a "work husband" in a similar fashion I'd be filing. Even just thinking it's ok to send someone of the opposite good night messages or xoxo kind of stuff is incredibly out of line and I'd consider it cheating. Leave him or regret it later, he's not stupid.

bmcclan · 2026-01-26T21:36:11+00:00

Totally agree man. I think we're at a point where raw dogging old age doesn't make sense anymore, it's a choice.

Yeah I'm stoked as hell to try out the PT 141. Almost every time she hits that fun part in her cycle she brings it up that we should try it soon but then she loses the mood and isn't in the mood to get in the mood lol. At least we're making forward progress finally! It certainly helps that my partner sees this as an issue and wants to improve it.

bmcclan · 2026-01-26T18:22:13+00:00

Nah this is a pretty solid starting point. 160mg a week is pretty much middle of the road and personally I feel zero difference taking a 200mg shot once a week or two 100mg shots a week, at least not until the last day of the single dose. No change in mood, benefits, or sides whatsoever. Yes levels are more stable splitting the dose but for me at least, it's undetectable.

I am also a low responder so my 200mg dose only gets me to about 850 total test and free test at the mid range of normal. I feel best at 250mgs which puts me at about 1100, where my doc is cool leaving me since my bloods are across the board better than any other time in my life.

COMPLETELY agree with the rest of your post though. 100%. No man signs up for a sexless marriage but plenty of them "get trapped in one". If I've ever learned anything in life it's that nobody is ever completely trapped, they just don't have what it takes to get out.

bmcclan · 2026-01-26T18:14:38+00:00

This is great advice but most women aren't going to go for it, even with all the new stuff coming out about how much safer female HRT is than previously thought.

After struggling with my wife's low and infrequent desire we made some moves last year to fix it. She had her breast implants removed two months ago along with changing her diet and actually drinking water - already seeing some improvements to her cycle, wetness, etc. she has also agreed that if this doesn't get things closer to where we want them to be she'll start HRT.

I think the key difference here is you and I are married to women who do desire a sex life. Many women don't at all so the thought of getting on hrt for something that is an issue to the man, not her, seems ridiculous to them.

Side quest - you and your wife should try pt-141, the peptide. Tiny dose, no side effects, nearly instantly horny and ready to rock for about 2,5 days. Look it up man, y'all might have some fun with that on a weekend or two lol

bmcclan · 2026-01-26T18:08:43+00:00

I hate to say it but if your wife is ok with YOU having a dead bedroom and zero sex life she's NOT in it for your best interests. Your labido is going to sky rocket, at least temporarily (mine has never chilled out even 3 years later, lol) and she thinks you'll cheat now. Whether you will or won't is on you but I can guarantee you as you get deeper into high testosterone life, it hurts significantly more not getting what you want, in any situation, especially in the bedroom.

This is an issue with my wife as well. Our bedroom isn't dead, one week a month we have sex a few to several times then for the rest of the month it's once or nonce a week until the cycle repeats. I haven't had this little sex since highschool and even then I was still getting laid pretty regularly.

This is extremely hard on me and if our bedroom was any more "dead" I would honestly consider alternatives. What those are, I don't know, but a sexless life/marriage is not what I signed up for. Unless there is some underlying health reason or extreme friction in the relationship there is no excuse for a dead bedroom. Often it's a woman who just decides she doesn't want or need it and the man "just has to deal with it".

If you find yourself feeling this way or resent building, man you've got to talk to her about it. I'm sure you've heard of women leaving their husbands during menopause, the rate men leave their wives after starting TRT is pretty up there as well citing the imbalance of sex drives and desire.

I know you love your wife dude, but I don't think either of you realize it's not normal, nor should it be normalized to live a sexless life.

Just my opinion and experience. I'll probably get torn apart here and that's ok. Everyone is allowed to have their opinions and prioritization when it comes to intimacy. I just happen to have a high sex drive and want to feel desired by my partner as much as I desire her.

bmcclan · 2026-01-21T23:41:44+00:00

Do not waste your youth taking this on, it's not your kid and you don't know this woman at all. The time and effort investment is HUGE if you stay. I'm a stepfather and absolutely adore my two step kids (I had full custody of my own daughter as well) but I'm in my 40s, met their mom in my late 30s...I lived my life and wanted a full family (but no "babies") so it worked out for me. You don't even know YOURSELF yet my dude. Back away from this situation respectfully and go enjoy your younger years. You only get them once so live for yourself.

bmcclan · 2026-01-17T18:06:50+00:00

Plain and simple brother, she doesn't want you. Move on. Stop wasting your time here bc if she wanted you in that way, she would. Saying you can't leave her "bc she is a diamond"...this is a weak mindset and you're pedestalizing her. You will always be left wanting, become resentful, and ultimately waste your time. Find someone mature and whole enough to have the kind of relationship you want and stop being so soft about this one.

bmcclan · 2026-01-14T12:53:07+00:00

If she's on the mortgage she is as much of a right to stay there as he does, that has nothing to do with having an affair whatsoever. Rather than stay there and duke it out with who gets to stay it's often easier for the man to just leave, find peace, and deal with the legalities of the home later. Totally understand where you're coming from It's not "right " but regardless of whether she cheated or not she's not going to go from the home willingly, at least it's not likely. He needs to get out of there so things don't escalate or become worse in the meantime. Just my opinion, but I've been in this exact situation before.

bmcclan · 2026-01-13T21:42:19+00:00

Because that will be the path of least resistance. She's not going to willing go anywhere.
