    but 27 sounds awesome
    If you are talking about "normal" TRT and you break the dose up into 2X per week or E3D (as I do), it's about 0.25 mL per injection. I can pull that up into a 28G insulin syringe with a 1/2 inch needle in about 45 seconds. I usually go a full minute or so (slow count to 60) so I have extra to squirt back in to adjust to the exact amount I need. Tap the bubbles to the top if necessary before adjusting to the final dose. I inject into my upper outer quads and alternate left and right (see diagram below). I usually inject over about a 5 second smooth continuous depression of the plunger.

    my only problem is my test is 100 mg per ml,
    that would be 1/2 a syringe...pretty sure its doable,
    my average climate here is fairly cool, especially after summer..
    so I usually pre heat the test using a hot/cold pad so it flows easier

    I take 100 mg a week...if I went tothe smaller needle,
    I think I would go 2 time a week

    That would make a difference! Can you ask your doc to prescribe 200 mg/mL? That would cut the volume is half and make it much easier. In the US, both 100 and 200 mg/mL is available, but 200 mg/mL is more commonly prescribed for this very reason.

    LOL, back when I had to go to the Dr. office for my TRT they occasionally would run out of the 200mg/ml cyp and have to give me the 100mg/ml cyp. Totally ruined my shot day when they told me that was the "female" concentration of test cyp. Even though it was Pfizer, I felt like I was missing out despite the increased volume of oil.
    There are 3 loves in my life: my wife, my English mastiffs, and my weightlifting....Man, my wife gets really pissed when I get the 3 confused...
