Testosterone pellets
Posted on 9/19/18 at 10:20 am

Switching from cypionate injections (1cc/week) to testopel pellets after a year of injections. The injections worked but were starting to be very painful in my thighs for some reason. Anyone have experience with the pellets?

Why not just change injection site ?

You know you can go in your arse, thigh, and shoulder, right?

Yep, started with pellets. I had at least one pellet come out each time I got them. More I thought about it, pellets weren't sounding like a good idea. Also, had to wait a week before lifting with lower body.
Shots work a lot better. 0.4 mil injection every 4 days in the glute.
Also your T level will be good the first 2 months but then you run on the lower end, which I had trouble sleeping and was dragging arse compared go the first 2 months.

Testosterone shots or pellets just sound like a terrible idea. What happens when you stop? Meat, lift heavy and frick anything not tied down.

I don't do it for lifting. I was strong as shite before and I haven't noticed any change in my gains since taking T therapy.
I was always tired but had trouble sleeping. My levels were below 200. With the shots, I run 700.
I don't plan on stopping to be honest.

They are talking testosterone replacement therapy for those with natural low T, not steroid cycles.
Op pellets suck. Learn to rotate injection sites.

I rotatated sites, when injecting the glutes I wasn’t getting much results. I started thighs and was getting great results but recently when I would press the plunger it would feel like there wasn’t any where for the testosterone to go and it would hurt like hell. And the last time the same thing happened and blood shot out when I pulled the needle out, followed by a huge bruise. Directions with the cypionate said to only use the glutes. That’s why doctor switching me to pellets.

what do you mean you weren't getting results? did your levels drop? feelings are BS when it comes to hormones. you were getting the same results with glutes.
and you can do shoulders also. and you hit scar tissue in the quad. rotate sites in the quads or go Subq.
as far as the pellets go, do what you want but its a waste of time and your levels will be all over

SubQ ftw. No pain. No soreness.

I have needle anxiety and haven’t done well with keeping up the shots. Was thinking of switching to pellets too.

Why not do testosterone gel daily?
Combine with dhea.

It's a pretty good option if you don't have kids.

Tried the gels a few years ago, and my levels didn’t change. I have a 3 month old now.

Some people have tough skin or skin that gets irritated by the gels. But with a 3 month old, I would never ever ever use any type of transdermal.

I was under the impression gel isn’t as effective. Maybe I’m wrong.

its not on a mg per mg basis. You will have to take more as you are looking at a max of 20% absorbtion. But in the end it can get your levels the same as injections.

What's your hematocrit?
