    ... lol.

    LowT Mike stated it correctly. He said 0.9mg (of T)/kg -- or verbally said as 0.9 milligrams of testosterone per kilogram of body-weight. Therefore, 0.9mg/kg * 91kg/1 = 81.9 mg.

    It's hard to explain without a whiteboard, but your confusion stems from the units or "kilograms," specifically. The mathematical condition to express units and then to properly carrying them through the equation (even in this case with a simple a multiplication or division problem) is why LowT Mike expressed "/kg" (or "per kilograms").

    Usually, you unknowingly reduce to the common denominator of units automatically. But the above equation shows your 91 kg is divided by one, illustrating the division of units (not numbers). It's like saying "1" or "1.0." Both the same number, just a different way to express it.

    idk..ive always been taught that ''/'' means divide...even when spoken in terms of ''per''
    either way i multiplied and got 80 something mgs. These numbers are for once a week right? I see many on here using 100-250mgs for their trt, and i as a 202 pound guy am supposed to be good with 81? That would be nice if true....i doubt im the smallest on this board in terms of weight lol.

    Think of it like this. If you went 60m/h (60 miles per hour) for 5 hours, did you go 300 miles or only 12???
