How much T do you inject?

[jay adams]

The doctor I've been recently going to here in NYC, starts guys off immediately on 200mg a week. That's not what I do, but that's his protocol. Go figure.

You can dictate your own protocol if you insist but he's a tough sell. I got a script and I do what I need to do.

Thats actually really cool. Like you said "dictate your own protocol". Nice to have that backup for all those emergencies people were talking about in the "Trying to refill early thread". If there's ever a rainy day or just a dry spell you're covered. I read bass say he's had a vial stored for a year and a half and it hasn't lost potency.

Uh oh... the 125-149 dose is catching up! We might have a tie vote here... Tiebreaker will be bloodletting contest, fastest to 1 pint wins.

After 1 year on TRT I am now a believer in less is more.

Was 150 weekly. Had to take an AI and red blood always high. Strength and body composition improved markedly, but acne got real bad. Currently drying out for 6 weeks (acne clearing up after 2 weeks off) and will start again at low weekly dose 60-100 weekly.

The acne and thick blood are just not worth the higher doses, in my opinion. A little boost from the low dose to get levels in a reasonable/modest level, then eat good, work hard, and sleep a lot will take care of the rest.

which would be easier using inulin syringes? is the 200 a lot thicker?

Any thoughts at all?

I'd venture to say 175-199 is not popular because the 3 ml syringe makes it hard to get that dose. At twice a week It's either .4 ml or .5 ml. So u have 80x2 or 50x2.

I recently bought a bunch of 1 cc syringes and I can get a more accurate dose. I can even go to .45 ml easy if I want.

Mixing HCG with B12? How is that working out for you? Never heard about doing that. Can you tell us a little about it? You mix 2ml with HCG? How much B12 are you getting? I'm intrigued.
Oh, 60mg. twice a week SQ. using THE BASS METHOD.

Yes, 250 IU twice weekly. Mixed with B12 instead of water.



Split Mon/Thurs. Although not necessary to split since hCG will take care of any "dips", but I'm trying to get through some pfizer vials that are 100mg/ML and I don't like injecting more than .5 CC subQ. Once I'm done I'll start using the 200 mg/ML and inject once weekly.

Same as you would with water. Same amounts. I mix it so that I have 500mcg of B12 with 250 IU hCG in half of a CC. So it's like hitting 2 birds with 1 stone.

Wouldn't B-12 bring up a person's red blood cell count? For us on TRT, it seems it would be self defeating.

As has been said, whatever works for each individual is the way to go. Good that your getting there.

B12 is required for RBC production. It doesn't generate RBC's on its own. Anemics generally have low levels of B12, so red bone marrow does not produce enough, which is why it's used as a treatment. Not really a concern if you're already producing enough. You excrete beyond your binding capacity. Always good to have B12 in your system. Even better if you can go 3 to 4 times higher than the maximum range.
