    Yeah, yeah, I know, I should change it up. I was out of the loop for awhile too. Also, you're right about the gel transfer, it had minimal affects on my wife as well ...

    PPC- thanks for your input!! It does feel like the Shots are slower to get going, but at this point I feel like I want to give them a chance. My first BW pre TRT showed I was very low in Test, E2 and vitamin D.......Those were the main ones and since starting TRT and before I have never had an issue with high E2.
    Sounds like I should keep going with 75mgs of Cyp twice a week and hold off on HCG and AI until after my BW results.
    I just really hate being tired. My job is still new to me and it's my first desk job so being tired is pure hell!!!! Could it be that I'm still not getting enough Test?

    Yes, it would be wise to hold off on the AI and HCG so you can have knowledge of what your body is doing with just the shots. Stay the course for a couple of months and then you'll know better if shots will work for you...if not atleast you know another method does.

    75mg twice a week is not a low dose but maybe you're a bit of a hypermetabolizer and are actually still low. All the possiblilties are hanging out there right now. The opposite may be true and you could be way high and that may be downregulating some other hormones that aid your energy levels. At over 1000 T levels on shots my husband did not feel as good as he does at lower levels with gels.

    You'll find out what your body likes best over time. I wouldn't ramp up without bloodwork at this level though if I were in your shoes.

    Hang in there. Truth will tell for you soon.

    Yes, I think you were gone longer than I have been. Nice to see you back and hope things are okay with you.

    Nice pic. Just another T gel wife...you see them everywhere.

    I'm slowly but surely getting my energy and libido back after switching..but I have also been applying a little gel the day before my injection to wean my self off as the Cyp is slower to take effect. I will have blood work done in a couple weeks and then decide weather or not to do AI and HCG . Does this sound like the best thing to do??

    I am also looking for a place to order supply's such as syringes. Any info would be great!

    Thanks!!

    I'm going in for my first Blood Work since switching to Cyp injections next week (Thursday) and wanted to know when to take my last shot. Ive heard that with weekly injections BW should be taken the 6th day or one day prior to next injection.
    I'm injecting about every 3 days so should I apply the same method and time my last injection to be Monday morning?

    If you're injecting every 3 days your serum levels are going to be pretty consistent no matter when you pull.

    I am twice a week and my serum levels are about the same no matter when I pull.

    If your Doc is "in the know" just tell him when you injected last and he'll figure it out.

    I am believer in getting tested where a man lives.

    This means somewhere in the middle between injections.

    This tells a more accurate story then waiting till the day before injection where serum levels are in the trough IMO.

    Ok, I finally got some HCG and AI and I found a ton of info on mixing HCG, but its all different.
    I got 5000 IU's of Ovutrig HCG and it came with sodium chloride...(both in glass amps). Can someone give me detailed instructions how to mix it and what else I need to get and where to get it? I'm pretty sure I scrap the sodium and get bacteriostatic water to mix with but I'm not sure how much to mix. Also, do I need to get an empty vial to store it in? Any help would be great...you can pm me if u want.
    Thanks!

    Thanks Bass- sorry to beat a dead horse, but I just want to make sure I'm doing this right. My wife is going to do it with me to try and lose some weight so should she mix hers the same?
    I just called the pharmacy to see if they had bac water and empty vials and they said I need a prescription for the water and didn't sell the vials. Where can I get these from now?....I thought the HCG would be ready to go.
    Thanks again!
