Guest guest Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 That wasn't too bad. Here are my comments: I have never heard of a 27g 1-1/4 " needle. It is very hard to push through a 25g 1 " . If you go down to 27g I would use a 1/2 " if your legs are lean enough. Every 2 weeks is very old information.

You really don't need the permission from your doctor. You don't need a prescription for needles, all you need is a script for the testosterone which is given to me anyway. While looking around on youtube last night I cam across this video, but thought that I should get you experienced guys to review it and tell me if it is accurate enough? Or if you have any further advice. http://www.youtube. com/watch? v=KQor40vf7lE Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 Thanks ,,, actually I am on .50 every 2 weeks?? I am not lean enough and the pharmacist recommended 1 1/2 " . But the location is correct? And you pull back in order to see if you hit a vein? The doctors office said that I have to get someone to inject me in the butt... I keep telling them that people self-inject all over and I am not sure I could figure out how to self inject into my butt. > > That wasn't too bad.

Guest guest Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 The location is good on the thigh. I have always used a 1 " on my leg. You only need a 1-1/2 " to inject your glutes. People do inject themselves in the glutes but I haven't tried it. I would like to try it some time just to give my legs a little break and have 4 spots to inject. I assume your Test is 200mg/ml? A starting dose is 100mg(0.5ml) per week. The half life is somewhere between 5-7 days so you drop almost all the way back to nothing within 2 weeks. I had an Endo do that to me and after a 200mg dose my Test was back to 254 after 12 days. A lot of people(me included) inject twice a week to level everything out. ________________________________ From: visualthought <no_reply > Sent: Thursday, July 16, 2009 7:43:42 AM Subject: Re: YouTube Testosterone Injection Thanks ,,, actually I am on .50 every 2 weeks??

Guest guest Posted July 17, 2009 Report Share Posted July 17, 2009 The half life of testosterone Cyp is closer to 21 days the last time I looked. With respect to half life, the concentration per ml is not material. My experiences is that with weekly injections, the different between the high and low of a weekly cycle is at most 20%. So an 800 ng/ml reading at the high will be 640 ng/ml at the low. I always test the day of my weekly T injection and I test before actually doing the injection. I use 1/2 inch 27 g on my leg for injection and draw with a larger needle. It has worked fine for 7 years. Steve Thornton wrote: > The location is good on the thigh.

Guest guest Posted July 17, 2009 Report Share Posted July 17, 2009 The half-life does vary by your SHGB level but most feel 5-7 days is about right for Cyp or Enan. Drugs.com lists it as 8 days. http://www.drugs.com/pro/testosterone-cypionate.html The mg/ml does matter because that determines the dose that you get when you inject 0.5ml but as you say doesn't matter with respect to half-life. Most people will drop to 50-60% of their peak level after a week. Some people like myself metabolize it faster. I dropped to almost pre-TRT levels after 200mg and 12 days. ________________________________ From: Steve <dudescholar4@...> Sent: Friday, July 17, 2009 4:38:07 PM Subject: Re: YouTube Testosterone Injection The half life of testosterone Cyp is closer to 21 days the last time I looked.

Guest guest Posted July 18, 2009 Report Share Posted July 18, 2009 I am like after a shot my levels peak in about 2 days then fall very fast. Because of this I do my shots 70 mgs or .35mls. every 3 days and the 2 days each in between I do HCG this keeps me leveled and keeps all the LH cells in my body and brain working. Being on TRT shuts down LH and doing HCG keeps my testis working. Co-Moderator Phil > > The location is good on the thigh. I have always used > a 1 " on my leg.

Guest guest Posted July 18, 2009 Report Share Posted July 18, 2009 I find it funny that almost any bodybuilding forum list those exact same numbers. They must copy each other. I am not saying they are wrong. ________________________________ From: " retrogrouch@...
