When I first started TRT I was advised to do subq which had terrible results from very high e2. For some reason, when test oil is absorbed into my body through fat cells this seems to happen. I also can't drink alcohol on TRT because it sky rockets my estrogen and I feel terrible and can't fall asleep. I suspect that I might have bad genetics for clearing estrogen, I have seen that discussed before.
After failing with subq I went to shallow IM in my delt, this worked a bit better but far from perfect. I eventually found the best thing, which was to do deep IM into a spot on the outside of my lower quad just by my knee. On my body I don't have any fat under the skin. There is a night and day difference injecting at this spot compared to anywhere else in my body. I don't get any absorption of oil into fat cells whatsoever and I feel great. However, after a couple of years of daily injections I have accumulated scar tissue at this spot. When I inject there now it feels off.
As a result I need to find another spot, but every time I inject I can feel the oil is getting absorbed into the fat. Even if I got a bit higher up on the quad which doesn't have that much fat on it, use a 1.25 inch needle, z track and hold it in there for a while, I can feel that some of the test oil is getting absorbed in the fat. It's unbelievably frustrating, I am not aware of another spot on my body. I feel pretty hopeless and have absolutely no idea what to do. Thoughts?
