any real tangible difference injecting once a week vs every 3.5 days?

[Dirkmcgirk]

I've seen charts on how much more steady the test abortion rate is by doing it every 3.5 days but how would your body react off one pin a week? Surely it can't be that significant right? somebody weigh in on this please.

I don't think it makes that big of a difference. I have seen reputable sources argue that weekly is better. I still do 3.5 days but wouldn't hesitate to switch if I found it significantly more convenient.

just IMO.

Ive done it plenty of times when cruising i pinn enough all year im not doing it when i cruise. I didnt notice any difference at all.

I look forward to the injection so I split the 100 into 50/50 every 3.5 days.

Will eventually get used to it and go once a week.

My doc had me move to twice a week when 250/week wasn't getting my levels up. He seemed to think it would help with making me feel better with less. He was full of shit.

The one thing I did seem to notice is that I needed less adex at 2x/week. Like the guy above, I've come to kind of enjoy my little injection ritual so I just kept doing it twice a week. I've actually not really needed any adex lately even at 300/week so I'm a weirdo.

Back when I first went on TRT, I did once a week injections. No saw my TT range from about 1000 to 400 ng/dl during the week. My E2 took big swings too (without an AI). I found it desirable to go to every 3.5 days. As always, YMMV.

I dont notice a difference but everyone is different. Best to try both ways. Once you get it right stick with it.

match it up with your bloodwork and see how the numbers react.

I'm going to switch to twice a week and see if that helps keep my estrogen levels in check so I'm also experimenting with this now as well. I just sent labs off today and will start 2 times a week this week so I should have more labs in a couple weeks to see if it has made a difference or not and will share those results when done.

I would wait more than a couple of weeks. 6 weeks would be better.

I think the biggest difference is estradiol. If you happen to be one of us that aromatizes a lot, breaking it into two shots often can allow you to go with less AI or none at all.

Single injection = larger spike with a larger TT value short term.

Two injections = smaller spikes, but slightly less TT short term.

I say short term because they both do reach the same level after a couple months.

Pretty much comes down to convenience and sides.

You first! Real men pin between the toes and fingers too.

 

[juced_porkchop]

i usually just go with once a week. even wth sust (iv tried eod, 3x wk, 2xwk and pretty much same. if you hav to do multiple shots though anyways 2x a week is good.) for me

 

[Milton]

Did you end up trying both ways or which one did you finally decide on?

 

[eagle110]

i v tried all ways once ya week is as goods any

 

[Milton]

which way are you going to do it OP?

 

[49ER]

wich way are you going to do it
OP?

 

[Milton]

did you finally pin?

 

[juced_porkchop]

some maybe. i go with 1x a week for hrt and even cycles if the volume is not too much, though it usually ends up being 2 shots on cycle.
