Glutes vs delts for best absorption?

[Sedg1]

Just got back from my docs office for 10 injection. Since I started three months ago, I have been pinned in the delt. But the nurse who injected me today said that the cyp is best absorbed if injected into the glute. She said you get the full benefit from each injection in a way that you do not if in the arm.
Your thoughts?

she is incorrect, shes just stating its a larger muscle so it has more room to diffuse. it is absorbed to my knowledge equally well when in any muscle

there is a theory or beleif by some that bigger the muscle group better the absorption. kind of like an ahole everybody has an opinion on where to pin. but common sense will tell you, you need to rotate and stay to larger muscles, things like biceps, calfs and such are a no go, beyond that you can get creative.

From what I understand the Glute is safest, has nothing to do with better abortion. I agree with 300winmag, rotate stick points such as delts, glutes, thighs.

not safest, only largest .its the only muscle left used for IM that still advocates Aspiration, and thats due to the potential of hitting a large vein or artery

She just wants to see your ass. bhrees and 300winmag already have you covered otherwise.

The better question is why aren't you self injecting?

One other thing to keep in mind is that you can inject more into the glute at one time than into the deltoid. The maximum injection for the deltoid is 1ml.

That is exactly what I told my wife when I got home.
Have to admit that the 60+ year old nurse who poked me did not get the boys romping, except for those white rubber sole shoes......

GILF's not your thing?

Fair question. Actually, I already pin B12 shots and a biologic for a chronic medical condition. Right now, going to the docs every ten days is no big deal. Insurance covers all of it so the cost is irrelevant. In time, I can see doing it myself, especially if the schedule interferes with my life.

Only if it is an essential part of TRT

Every 10 days is too infrequent. Every 7 days at the most. Many guys prefer every 5 days or twice a week.

My doc started me at 100mg every 2 weeks. Not good. Serious crash. Went to 200mg every 10 days which works pretty well though I feel like am really looking forward to the next pin. Still have pretty good levels on the tenth day - 155 free and around 750 total. Doc should not have a problem with 100mg every 5 days since it is the same total that I am getting right now. As it is, my levels are way above what he said I should expect, but he is pretty cool about it and goes by my reports. I have not interest in more cyp as I am doing well without any Aromatase inhibitor (AI), hair loss, etc.
