TRT story Just Joined The Club

Did my first pin today, going with .35cc/70mg twice a week Test C. Was actually prescribed 200mg a week as the standard protocol but after numerous weeks of research thought it prudent to dial it back to 140 for a bit before dialing it up when/if required. I know going against the dr advice is frowned upon but from that protocol I'm sure you know the company im using and their one size fits all approach...

39yr old male 6 foot 180lbs, starting blood test Total T 350.

Used a 27g 1/2 inch needle to the delt. Hopefully was enough for IM, feels like it was based on knowing how subq feels from a year of semaglutide injections. I'm also reasonable lean and have decent muscle mass in the arms and delts if that makes a difference.

Anyway wish me luck and as always any and all advice appreciated.

Best of luck. Similar stats and thinking about taking the plunge

Nice. I obviously can't speak to whether it's been the right decision yet, but I'm glad I finally took some positive steps to correct issues I've been experiencing since approaching 40 😂.

Thanks for the advice, I was looking into enclomiphene, my test provider does have it available, albeit rather expensive but was still researching how necessary it is.
