    Test is test. If you want to inject at least every 3 days, with a more painful test then sure, use test P. Depot test is just another name for test cyp.
    No I've never used an online pharmacy.

    When I looked up testosterone on my insurance product list....Depot test comes up costing more for some reason and they call the Cypionate the generic of Depot....So agree with Teabag...I believe the word "depo" means injectible....kind of like when my wife takes depo provera (birth control)..meaning she gets her birth control as a shot...good to know that test p is painful...don't need that

    Depo just means that the substance you are injecting will deposit on the muscle tissue and will be released slowly hence the name "depo"

    I wouldn't use prop, it doesn't build-up, like cyp or enan, it's in and out of the system to fast for HRT. Stick to what the Doc give you, for HRT, now if you want to cycle that's a different story.
