    Drawing up the proper amount of Test. Help please

    Ok, so I'm on Test Cypionate 120 mg/week, and have finally gotten to the point where I'm self injecting (had previously gone to a low T center). Anyway, when I'm drawing the dosage (i'm using a 3cc syringe) into the syringe (in this case, the dosage is .6 cc), I'll stop at .6cc and then pull the needle out of the bottle. I will then pull all of the test that I've drawn back farther into the syringe so I can swap needles without losing any of the test. When I do this, I notice it looks more like I've drawn .7cc.

    It's confusing to type out, but if you understand what I'm saying, I'm just wondering which reading is the accurate one? I know it sounds trivial, but I'd prefer to know exactly how much I'm getting each week so I can properly assess how I feel at a given dose.

    Thanks much

    There's always a little extra wasted in the syringe that doesn't come out. That's the difference between the .6/.7 you see when swapping needles. Taking that into account, you're actually injecting closer to .6 into your body. Besides, your measuring it the same way everyone else does, so therefore your measuring it the same way as its measured when deciding doses. So maybe the ".6" is a little off, but its off the same for everybody. Does that make sense?

    there is extra testosterone in the hub and needle that doesn't come out during injection. if you fill the syringe to .6ml for 120mg, you will get .6ml injected. on your next shot, after you're done injecting, draw back on the plunger and you will see the extra +/-.1ml test that pulls back out of the tip.

    also, get some smaller 1ml syringes lol
