gyno from trt

In this case, I like where I think @Iranon was going: maybe break that dose into smaller more frequent doses to level out the peaks and valleys of hormonal fluctuation that can cause more signficant sides. Not speaking for @Iranon, I just believe that is a good strategy and probably where he was headed, too.

Since you have only been on injections for 7 weeks I'm guessing you haven't pulled bloods yet. 200mg is a pretty big TRT dose, so you might benefit from coming down on it, in addition to 2 or even 3x a week injections.

Be advised, and you may know this already, that most PCPs are almost clueless on TRT and issues beyond "dur, inject some test until bloodwork not show red numbers". In other words, I think we have covered the bases here pretty well regarding TRT issues, though there is a slim chance maybe something else is going on. And we are just making educated guesses here, without bloods it is tough to say what is what definitively.

So perhaps my dose is a bit high. My hormones guy prescribed me 150mg a week. The vials I got are 200mg 1ml ampules. I didn't think it would hurt using all of it and not wasting those last 50mg lol.

Like I said, I'll know more with my follow up this week.

To avoid waste with amps, you can draw with a filtered syringe, then back fill the appropriate number of slin pins. Store those and use over the course of the next week or so. I think you are good as long as there is a little air between the plunger and the oil.

You could also transfer from amps to a sterile vial if you want. If you store in pins, dig around for particulars on how and where. I've not done it myself, but know that it is a frequent practice.
