    32x.5”. Dose is .5ml weekly, which I am currently administering in .1ml doses (10 units) five days a week. Shots are IM in quads and sometimes bicep.

    @SpaceGhost I switched to MCT just to get better viscosity for pen use. I still have to run labs to confirm numbers remain the same even though I switched from syringes to pens. In terms of user experience, I prefer pens much better than using syringes. I think this would apply to you even more since you're poking at a higher frequency. I poke EOD (M/W/F).

    You likely will not be able to use a 32g though or you'll be sitting there forever just trying to push the T through. Based on this thread it seems like most people are using 29g for T (so am I). I do admittedly use 32g for all peps.

      I use the 32g on an insulin needle. I have some 29g pen tips on order for when I get my new pen. I use 32g pen tips for peps as well.

      You knew the job was dangerous when you took it, Fred.

          I’m going directly into quad or bicep muscle.
          I would like to try subs for T. Maybe after my next labs.

                  Wow! I just tried warming up the syringe before my injection and it flowed MUCH better! Thanks to all who suggested it.

                  I war trying to think of how I was going accomplish this, whether to buy a wipe warmer or Hot Hands, but the I realized I have a buckwheat eye pillow in my drawer next to me. 30 seconds in the microwave then folded it around the syringe for. A few minutes. Voila! Should work on the pen as well. (Which should be here today)

                  You knew the job was dangerous when you took it, Fred.

                    Day one using V4 pen with 29x1/2” pen needle. Warmed with microwaved eye pillow. The weight of the pen pretty much did all the work pushing the needle into my quad. Injection was as quick and painless as a SubQ peptide shot. HUGE SUCCESS

                      1/2” - 12-13mm

                      What carrier oil is your testosterone?

                      Mct, Grapeseed, Cotton?

                        Cottonseed. Prescribed by my urologist, fulfilled by Walmart pharmacy, & paid for (partially) by insurance.

                          Tell your doctor to prescribe and get it from a compound agency with MCT oil.

                          This is a forever deal so get the best and it last a while, no heat needed, smooth like buttah

                              @SpaceGhost After reading your post about warming the test a little, I had to try it, and I kinda liked it. The carrier in the Test-C that I use is MCT, but still, I think it made it smoother. Thanks for the idea.

                                Question for all those warming the test shot…

                                Were are you storing your testosterone?

                                  @diegoc I usually keep it in my desk drawer. I have a couple of extra unopened vials in the kitchen cabnet.

                                    Ok usually MCT oil in a 29g goes thru very smooth so I wanted to make sure there not storing test in the fridge.

                                      @diegoc understand, probably someing that I wouldn't do if I am in a hurry but it did seem to be a smoother pin.

                                        Sure im not criticizing it, just wanted to make sure no one is storing test in the fridge.

                                        I received a batch from a compound pharmacy and it was in a freeze pack and it said put in the fridge immediately.

                                        So you see crazy things. 🤷🏼‍♂️

                                          Ok boys… I gave in to the test, lol literally…

                                          I loaded up a cartridge with my gud stuff.

                                          I tested 3 pens including an auto injector and the manual after many tries gave me the most precise dose.

                                          Im using a manual pen and a 29g 12.7mm Ultra Fine enbecta pen needle.

                                          I will do my BW in a month to check if the dose is precise.
