Test Cyp vs Test Enth?

What are the main differences between enthanate and cyponate? As i understand they are both long esters and the injection schedule is pretty similar. Thanks in advance

Nothing really there are minor differences ones not going to work better then the other I rotate them all the time.

Hope this is right ,,maybe someone with more exp can give better detail but I understand it as this,,
◾Enanthate has a 7-carbon ester chain while cypionate has an 8-carbon ester chain. The more carbons the ester group has, the more soluble in oil and the less soluble in water it becomes. As a result, cypionate has a slightly slower release and longer active life.
◾Due to being one atom lighter, enanthate has more testosterone per mg. The difference is insignificant though, perhaps a few milligrams amount of steroid more

Yes there is a difference but not a huge one. Test Cyp has a 12 day half life where as Test E has a 10 day the reason for this is because Test C has an extra carbon atom attached to it making it weigh ever so slightly more. Some users have reported slightly extra water retention as a result with C as opposed to E. no clue as to why most choose E over C they are both equally as effective and provide pretty much the same result. Test Cyp seems to be used by more doctors for TRT patients for some reason...I have 3 relatives receiving TRT now all are on Test Cyp. One difference I have seen is Test Cyp comes in 200mg per ml form where as you never see Test E below 250mg per ml no clue why that is but that is just something I have noticed although I have seen some Test blends containing 200/200 of both Test E/C so there ya go

But my golden rule is tes is tes is tes is tes is tes is tes and that's all u need to kno unless your really in to competing then then the water retention factor plays a part.

For 99.9% of us there is no difference worth worrying about. You have about a 1/2 difference in half life.

Some people claim better results and less water retention with C and just as many claim the same with E.

Thanks a lot for a prompt response guys

Absolutely no difference in terms of performance. I have cut with cyp and tren so I don't even buy the argument that you retain more water on cyp. I believe your diet determines the majority of bloat.

Regarding gains, diet is the determining factor from what I gather, so why don't people just stick with Test for all cycles?
