For TRT, most guys do IM. A small % do subq.

Is there any advantage either way?

Subq has a slower absorption rate which should result is a little less aromatization.

IM can handle larger volumes as subq is problematic over .3ml. And with Subq you can get painful/annoying nodules where the oil pools and takes a long time to absorb. It can literally be there for weeks. This is what steers most guys away from subq.

I suppose you are less likely to hit a blood vessel doing subq.

Try them both and see which one you prefer.

I prefer subq.

If you go into stomach area you run the risk of a little lump, but going into fat on butt for a year now and haven't had a single hot spot.

I use 29g 1/2in insulin syringe.

My Dr's fav spot is into delts with that same syringe, so Id imagine that's shallow IM.

Like Megatron said, it's all preference.
