Id go off the testim about 16 days before your next appt. Test levels will likely be low and injectable would be prescribed. Smearing that gel on a daily basis is more of a pain in the ass than a once a week shot. (no pun intended).
Whether you can do it at home is really up to the doc - online HRT clinics sure dont make you go anywhere for your shots so if your doc insists I would ask him if it is a law that you must come to his office. Insist that you or a loved one can inject safely at home.
Why can he trust you to smear one pack of gel on your shoulders and not trust you to inject only the prescribed amount. Good luck.
I get basically the same as salemguy...50mg/week. Test was still a little low after 6 month check up, so my Dr. raised it to 75mg/week and that put me at 729, so he wants me back at 50mg/week starting next week.
Blood work is great once he started me on cabergoline...what a life saver! My prolactin was 165, caber brought it down to 7 and I feel amazing! What a difference caber made in my general sense of well being...simply put, it has changed my entire outlook/life and productivity. 75mg/week test and I'm back using 150lb db's on incline bench.
I am not sure if this is the norm, but I am prescribed 120mgs of test cyp per week, that should last me a 3 months or more for a 10 M bottle but my script allows me to pick up one time per month so I always have 2 extra full bottles.
Makes it easy for someone to abuse it, which I probably would had I not learned my lesson before I had to go on TRT. :st:r-wars
200mg of Test-C a week..Only thing insurance won't cover it.So goes for about $85.So I have to shop around for some side stuff.Can get alot cheaper then the pharmacy!
if u have a wife or a girlfriend you live with asked the doc to show them how to do the inj at next office visit and usually they will send you home with the vial and some syringes.
