Guest guest Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 I don't care for SubQ also I like shooting into my thigh but I use a small 27g x 1/2 " lg. needle my levels are great doing this. kahrcw9 <no_reply > wrote: I have tried SubQ in my belly for the past three weeks now, and I feel weak.

I know I greatly prefer subQ just because it does no even sting at all, but regardless of pain at injection, I think I get a better result with how strong and well I feel by injecting in my thighs.

Guest guest Posted January 21, 2008 Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 I suggested subQ to my doctor and he said he would look into it. He kind of gave me the impression he was uncertain that this is an effective method. I certainly can not speak with authority in the matter but most of us do know that the injectable testosterone is oil based intended for a slow time release. That having been said, it would seem questionable to use injectable testosterone other than deep intra muscular. But I've heard some are enjoying success doing subQ. I'm sticking with deep IM. kahrcw9 <no_reply > wrote: I have tried SubQ in my belly for the past three weeks now, and I feel weak. I am going back to sticking it in my leg.

Guest guest Posted January 21, 2008 Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 My feelings and labs show subq to be as effective for me as im, however subq did not mitigate E2 as was intended. I was already doing im every three days before switching to subq.

Guest guest Posted January 21, 2008 Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 Dave I found the same thing so it's more about doing shots every 3 days when I tried subQ I did not like it stings me and hurts for an hour. I found my E2 was much better doing shots every 3 days. Be it subQ or IM.

Guest guest Posted January 23, 2008 Report Share Posted January 23, 2008 Hey Phil, I'm going to try the T injections subQ. I'll be using a 30ga x 1/2 " needle in the thigh. If you're using the same length needle, wouldn't that be subQ? I thought you would need a longer needle to inject IM, like 1 " . I inject Novarel in the thigh now, using the 30ga x 1/2 " and I assume its subQ. I would think it would hurt if it was going into the muscle, which it doesn't. I could be wrong? What I'm trying to understand is if you are saying you're injecting your T, IM with a 1/2 " long needle? Dan I have tried SubQ in my belly for the past three weeks now, and I feel > weak. I am going back to sticking it in my leg.

Guest guest Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 Ok I get this a lot at other boards they try to tell me I am shooting SubQ but SubQ is when you pinch up the skin and hold it and shoot into the pinched up skin. I use 27g x 1/2 because it pulls the T out of the vile faster still takes about a min. I then shoot into my thigh picking a different spot off the top to the outside of my thigh into the muscle. There may be times with I shoot up high near my hip that it is not going into the muscle. But my labs are always good and I have been at this for over 2 yrs. opusnall2 <opusnall2@...> wrote: Hey Phil, I'm going to try the T injections subQ.
