Use 250IU hcg Novarel,
do both shots (T&hcg) on same day, have two days free in between.
Both shots are subQ around navel.
It takes less than four minutes to draw Depo-T, make sure you take one minute to do the T shot, less discomfort afterward.
When starting T injection, accelerate the dose so you get to your steady level quicker.
See posts around post #22

After 2 -3 months do blood test to see where you are at.
The dose I calculated is to shorten you adjustment period.
You want to test FreeT~250 on Quest tests on my list.
Adjust the T dose per test results.
=======================================
You have wery little testing done.
Do the list I posted on post #44
Make sure it is at Quest Diagnostics.
You may want to experinment before you start T+hcg (up to you).
Do blood test first, screwed adrenals and thyroid may need help. Sometimes that solves or at least help with testosterone situation.
