Pre-cycle Experiment - Testosterone Enanthate SubQ vs IM - ED pins

[nidhogg]

Well after a brief search I did find one peer-reviewed article stating that Subq TRT injections did produce results. However, they were not compared to IM injections. They just said Subq works, but not how well.


Having read a few articles on it, it seems as though an oil based test solution injected IM would produce higher peak test levels but they would be absorbed much more quickly whereas subc oil based test seems to produce lower levels due to a slower release which seems to be conducive to TRT patients. If I am interpreting this data wrong please let me know.

The problem with the experiment above is that when people do bloodwork for sub-q they expect the peak to be on an equal time scale as IM injections. Think of it this way, if SC injections really had such a slow absorption rate, then there would be a massive steroid buildup and the steady state peak would be well beyond expected. But that doesnt really happen, instead you see people report lesser testosterone levels compared to IM. The only explaination in this case is that subq absorbs faster than IM and since testosterone has a very short half life it would requires more frequent pinning.

But for other gear with much longer halflife tren , deca , eq etc it wouldnt really matter

This post came back from the grave!

Some testosterone blends have a very similar half-life to Deca , some even longer. Regardless, it seems there is some variability amongst bioavailability.
