OK I needed to read more on this post. You need to get your Total T levels up

into the upper 1/3 of your labs range your shot is very low 60 mgs most men

start at 100 mgs or .5cc of 200mgs/ml or CC.

If your worried about your blood getting to thick do your shots half the dose

2x's a week or less every 3 days. Doing this helps keep Estradiol levels down

and helps keep your blood thinner.
