TRT Question

[bwmatlock]

So about 10yrs ago I was stacking Testosterone Cyp and Deca. I was just doing 1-1.5ml x2 week in my butt check. Now they had me taking 25units daily in my thigh and it is making my arms with all kinds of acne and face super oily. Should I go back to dosing 2 week and on my butt again because it seems like I didnt have this problem before and I was taking two oily products now its just test and it is ridiculous. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated please. Thanks

Generally speaking daily dosing causes less sides than larger weekly / bi weekly doses. I'd also think it literally impossible the injection site of thigh vs butt is causing your issues. More likely your body and how it reacts has changed over time.

Yeah I kinda thought that about being older and body reating different. Just didnt know if the daily was causing more oil in my skin than once or twice a week dose. Thanks

No it's the opposite, daily dosing is usually done to eliminate side effects.

Also 25 units doesn't tell us anything, how many milligrams of test is in 25units of your testosterone. Assuming it's 200 mg per milliliter, wouldn't 25 units be 50mg? If so, they have you on 50mg daily? That's a cycle, 350mg per week. And if you're converting a lot to estrogen, which a lot of people do once they exceed a trt dose, that would be the reason why you're breaking out and getting oily skin in my opinion. Knowing the total amount you're taking in milligrams would be helpful

It's 25mg daily currently is what the dose is for the trt treatment.
