    are u cleaning the inj site and the top of the vial before use? don't force the plunger down, let it take its time. alcohol after, then massage site for about thirty seconds. you can put a hot compress on it also. try not to have too much weight on the leg of the side you're naling. throw it on a chair or something. i had that problem when i first used. all this stuff helped me. if it doesn't get better, repost.

    21g 1 inch good. Most like prop but in rare case as i know working in hosp could be infection do you clean site/bottle before each use? Ihave seen it in my 6 years as nurse (yes male nurse hahaahahahaha) people clean the site but not the bottle, think bout it you put that bottle in gym bag or sock draw or where eva it gonna get some type of bact on it and if you happen to be prone to that you may need ab's (antibiotics) nothing big just small 3-4 week dose. Also I have many friends who neva clean inj spot or bottle and do just fine so most like react to prop.

    if you havent used sust before, or are not used to an ingredient, like the oil type or higher BA concentration, it may take a few weeks to get used to. If you have lots of fat use a 1.5' needle. 1" if your kinda lean. Be sterile, and make sure you apply preasure on the injection for a minute or so after to prevent it bleeding out a bit. Use at least 2 differnt injection sites. if site becomes very painful, red, swollen and starts to grow in size, keep an eye on it, it may be infected. Not to worry you, just be attentive. I get that reaction from gear i am not used to. Usually a few weeks to adapt.

    Switch the spots why not ass? You could have same reaction it really depends on how your body deals with the compound.

    sust is known to cause pain for a lot of people..its the prop ester that causes it..you can try cutting it with sterile oil or B-12..or reduce the volume youre injecting..this is just one of the reasons why I dont use sustanon..if youre only doing one cc/wk which I assume is 250mg/cc..you should be injecting more than once a week..try doing 1/2 cc twice a week instead

    Tips to prevent Test Prop Pain:

    1) Slightly heat oil up to around body temp using warm water
    2) make sure to injec tin a large muscle group and deep enough IM
    3) Massage area very well with firm pressure to distribute the oil as much as possible through the muscle tissue
    4)Inject in the AM when you are most active. Muscle contractions can help more evenly spread the oil
    5) Cut the Sust with either sterile oil or another AAS you might be using such as Deca/EQ/...whatever

    #3 is probably the best way of avoiding Prop pain I've found

  22. #22

    thats not a real good plan..you just cant take a month off and start again..do you knwo what PCT is?

    typically cycles are laid out like this

    1-12 500mg/wk test
    1-12 400 mg/wk Eq
    14-18 Post cycle therapy

    sounds you like need some research, i would hold off on the eq for right now

    need research bro, sustanon should be injected every other day, you can do 250mg a week, but you need to split the doses up. Also rotate injections sites. I believe with sust you should start PCT a week after last shot, not positive on that one though, what are you using for PCT?

  27. #27
    PCT being clomid. so no eq and continue the sus

    sustanon does NOT have to be shot EOD..some people prefer it, but many people get by shooting twice a week and have good results..that information is parroted by a lot of people..i suggest you shoot at least twice a week..if youre only take 1cc/wk..take 1/2cc twice a week..the volume will be smaller and pain should be less..PCT starts 18 days after last shot of sust..how much clomid do you plan on using?

    the amount of prop in it is very minimal..will have minimal effects on the results..it might be a better idea to inject EOD, however twice a week will still yield results..too many people parrot the EOD injections about sust as mandatory

    no need for 300 the first day..just do 100 mg for two weeks and 50mg until its gone

  33. #33

    hold onto it and save it for another cycle..you'll probably need more as Eq is very weak and you would need 4-500mg/wk for 12 weeks to really benefit

  35. #35
    ok so how long before i can do another cycle. i will do the 500mg enanthate plus 500mg eq for 10-12 weeks. should i break those up to 2 shots a week 1cc of each monday and thurs

    rule of thumb is time off = time on + PCT!!! If you get blood work done and everything comes back normal, you can start sooner

    the reason I recommend sust to be shot eod is from personal experience, I've done once a week, twice a week, and eod, and I got less acne from eod. I assume this is due to less fluctuations. Gains were about the same regardless, just less sides.

    you dont have to tell him anything..if you tell him, you will probably get a lecture on the subject as most docs are clueless about AAS..but he cant tell you no either..its your body and you want the tests...go thru a separate lab and pay for it yoursellf if you have to.. direct labs dot com is a reputable site..you fill out the tests you want, go to a lab and they take your blood and you wait for the results...

    so what am i looking for with the results what should they be testing for
