I’m one of those in the first example. SC is notably worse than shallow IM for my daily protocol. My free T was actually it in half by using SC and I could tell by every sleepless night something was wrong. My E2 was normal though, so I couldn’t tell what was wrong exactly until I had the...
I switched to daily injection which allow me to increase my free test levels while hemoglobin and hematocrit stayed lower. 8mg per day test cyp at night.
Update here: ever since getting my e2 up to mid20’s to 30’s, my blood pressure is always about 120/80. No white coat syndrome anymore. Whereas e2 at 17 was a problem.

The link to your story is broken, but I’m having hard time with this. Did you ever cycle higher levels (blast with anything) with building that physique? I definitely agree that maintaining doesn’t require the same as building, but getting to that...
Yeah, I had labs drawn to verify DHEA-S levels went up and they did, somewhere mid range. I’d have to go through 100 blood tests to find it so you’ll just have to trust me lol. I’ve used multiple brands including Douglas, sublingual worked the strongest to get my levels up but oral did as well...
All of them, but I think most are due to lower e2 levels, not DHEA. I rarely feel like I’m going to pass out though, but dry skin, lethargy (or overstimulation), weakness (relative to amount of muscle mass), irritability and noise sensitivity. None improved with good dhea levels, but when e2...
Hello, I gave dhea a fair shot several times, between sublingual, oral and transdermal, none of it provided me any benefit I could see, so my levels are back to under 100. I also stopped most supplements after realizing they were all making any and all issues worse. I only take vitamin D and a...
Thanks. I'll always use sterile injection technique, but had a mild concern about contamination from so many punctures.
Otherwise, 8mg daily gets me significantly higher free T than 50mg twice per week, or 25mg EOD.
8mg daily: 167
50mg twice per week: 105
15mg EOD: 117
Range for all 35-155...
Sorry about the frustration, but I was trying to get the 1mL vials and twice now they've given me 10mL vials. I'm also doing 8mg daily, but would prefer only puncturing a vial about 10 times rather than 100 with the 10mL vial. That doesn't concern you?
