1cc syringe vs 3 cc syringe

[methos0123]

Just wanted to get everyone's opinion on how necessary the need for a 1 cc syringe is for the accuracy of dose for TRT vs the standard 3cc syringe.

I am contemplating on getting some 1 cc syringes, but am not certain on how necessary they are for $45/100.

I think some say that the velocity at which the testosterone gets injected is much greater in a 1cc barrel. Higher velocity can cause more tissue damage. I might be remembering this incorrectly though so don't hold me to it.

You're right, it's just not as bad with a 25g needle versus a 29/31g needle as the volume decrease isn't as bad going from barrel to needle.

1cc barrels are kind of a pain in the butt to find OP, and are no more accurate than a 3cc barrel when it comes to measuring out TRT doses. This is of course unless you're scripted for something silly like 80mg/wk and want to do 40mg/E3.5D.

Ok, cool. My dose as of right now is 50mg every 3.5 days. I just go in between the 2 and 3 mark halfway. However, I may end up having to go to the "silly" dose. haha. I feel fantastic at my current dose. I just hope that my hematocrit stays in check. The 1 cc barrels aren't hard to find, but they are kinda expensive.

$21 per 100 at eastcoastmedicalsupply.com, and they have frequent sales of 20% off or so. I've been meaning to place an order.
EDIT: yes, shipping is high.

My favorite syringes are the BD Integra retractable, haven't been able to get any lately though. Back order. I got so use to them I hate using anything else.

I find 1 cc's a lot smoother to shoot T

Update: just placed first order from eastcoastmedicalsupply for a bunch of stuff. 100 1cc barrels were $21 each, 20% discount code "blackfriday" good until end of today brought it down to $17 per 100. (Don't worry if you miss discount, there will be more).

Key to high shipping is to spend at least $200, then shipping is free. Let's just say I'm stocked up

Thanks for sharing man!

took the words outta my mouth

This is only true if you inject faster. Don't. Instead, use the lighter pressure required to keep steadier.
