    half life

    Do half lives differ I.m. from sub q?

    There is a slower absorption rate with sub Q but I don't believe the half life is changed to any degree that's worth calculating during a cycle. For example..test E would still need to be injected 2X per week subQ or IM.

    I'm no expert but I believe you should never inject oil based AAS sub Q or you risk a visit to the urgent care.

    No it's ok to do as long as you don't inject loads.
    I think .5ml is common practice

    So does slower absorption mean that it's possible that with sub q shorter half lives may not be utilized completely? As it may be possible that it may not be fully absorbed before the half life expires?
    Or am I over thinking things?

    As lunk said. Administration method will not alter the esters' half life. Absorption rate would be affected.
