Subcutaneous Testosterone Injections - 20% better results?
After doing some cycles back in college and always using IM injections, i've decided to switch to Subcutaneous test injections to try it out.
I have a buddy who uses TRT at 200mg per week and swears by Every Day testosterone injections Subcutaneously at about 10 - 30mg per day of Cypionate.
He says his blood work is rock solid, with higher test levels than he has ever seen on just 200mg of test per week (compared to IM weekly or bi-weekly injections). E2 is more stable as well.
There appears to be some research to support this.
In this article, overlook the fact that the study was for female to male gender transition.

But here is the kicker:

Approximately 25% lower SC than IM dose of testosterone is needed to achieve similar outcomes.
This is great. Who wouldn't want their test to be more effective in lower quantities?
And then from this article: https://www.t-nation.com/pharma/get-...m-testosterone

Dr. Crisler believes this method gives you more bang for your testosterone buck. He says that 80 mg of subQ testosterone has the effect of a 100 mg of testosterone administered intramuscularly.
For me, I definitely have some scar tissue mostly on my upper leg, from past cycles, as that is my most comfortable injection spot, so i'll be giving subcutaneous a shot.
Of course, I do realize this isn't for everyone. If you are injecting like 4 or more ml of something per week, it may be hard to do subq, as larger amounts of oil based injections can leave uncomfortable welts and such. It's likely more beneficial for folks running smaller doses, 0.2ml injections and such, but if you can make the same results with a smaller dose, it seems more cost effective amongst all the other benefits.
Thoughts?
