Guest guest Posted July 23, 2008 Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 I was wondering how long it takes before the mood swings and such start when doing the 5 ml every three weeks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 23, 2008 Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 5ml? Is that at least 100mg/ml? Still 500mg is a lot for even every 3 weeks. His swings will be huge. Everyone is different but probably after about 2 weeks his levels will drop enough to definately tell the difference. husband just started T shots.....

Guest guest Posted July 23, 2008 Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 I am not sure what the dose is 5ml's is not the dose we are use to in T shots we do them in mgs. Most testosterone comes in viles of 200mgs/ml and the vile holds 10ml's. So this shot would be dam big 1000mgs. Or if he is using 100mgs/ml this is still a dam big shit 5ml's would = 500mgs. This can't be if it is his Dr. is giving him dose's that Bodybuilders use when doing steroids. Also doing shots every 3 weeks is very old and crazy your up after the shot for about 10 days then your fall back to low by the next one. Also doing shots this big will drive up his Estradiol when this is to high it takes away from all the good the testosterone shots do. And will kill his sex life. We start out doing 100mgs every week on testosterone shots and we find adding HCG to the shots on the 5th and 6th after the testosterone shot holds us over until the next shot so we don't have the ups and downs of doing shots every 2 or 3 weeks. This is very old even the AACE Guidelines say on page 11 to do shots every 7 to 10 days here is a link read for your self. http://www.aace.com/pub/pdf/guidelines/hypogonadism.pdf Tell him to do his own shots it's the low cost of TRT there is. Also have him read this. http://www.griffinmedical.com/male_hormone_modulation_therapy.html Co-Moderator Phil > From: idhides <hides13@...> > Subject: husband just started T shots..... > > Date: Wednesday, July 23, 2008, 6:23 PM > I was wondering how long it takes before the mood swings and > such start > when doing the 5 ml every three weeks? > > > > ------------------------------------ > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2008 Report Share Posted July 28, 2008 About 10 yrs ago I used it about 3 yrs before the patch come out then I used Androgel. My BCBS would not pay for the compounded cream when the patch come out. I did much better on the cream when I switched back to shots but this time every week. I called Collage Pharmacy and asked them how my dose of cream compaired to 10 grams of Androgel and they told me my cream was 2x's stronger no wonder I did better on the creams.
