Hello! I am the man who first started taking the medicine only a few days ago (in a different post that you can read on here). I promised myself that I would get back to this website and write about how I am doing now that I have been taking this medicine for around 6 months now. I originally went from 1 1/2cc every 2 weeks to 2 1/2 cc every 2 weeks. I am feeling GREAT. My wife has noticed tha...

I have taken 2mills twice a month for about a 2 years. At first it was great but now I don't seem to have the energy I was used to getting from the shots. I talked to my doctor who informed me that taking this for a long time can have an effect on your blood thickness. He checked my hemoglobin levels and it was slightly high. I have stopped taking this for the next three months to see if my blood goes back to normal. If you seem to be having the opposite effect after taking this for a prolong period of time I would suggest getting your blood thickness checked. Read More Read Less

I have been satisfied with this treatment for many years. My HRT Dr. recommends that I do not take a break from it. I was using 100 MG per week. Beginning last year I began to notice heart palpitations two days after each injection. I thought possibly it was coincidental. I reduced my dose gradually to 20 mg per week. Each time I inject the testosterone, I begin to have severe heart palpitations two days later. the symptoms gradually dissipate until the day my next injection is due. My heart rate can drop to 40 bpm. Often these are severe enough to keep me from working. Once I passed out completely. I woke up and the EMS was asking if I wanted to go to the hospital. Has anyone else noticed symptoms like this?Read More Read Less

I am 66 years old. I had PRP on my hands. As part of the work up for the procedure I had labs done that showed low T and low D3. I was placed on 100mg IM each week to help with healing. I feel great. I didn't know I felt bad until I started the medication, now I remember how I use to feel. Highly recommend this.

I'm a 71 year-old male and I've been using this drug for about 6 months and am pleased with the results. I must use Viagra to achieve an good erection. I inject 1/2 a CC once a week. My attitude has improved greatly, and my "want to" has returned. I'm tested for testosterone levels every 3 months.

I have been taking 2ml every two weeks for over 35 years. 2ml lasts 11 to 14 days before I'm down again. I trialed compounding, gels, patches never worked for me. My numbers stay around 350-400 and I'm happy.

Had been on Andro Gel for several years with reasonable but not outstanding results. Dr. prescribed Testosterone cypionate, and a routine of injecting subcutaneously weekly rather than IM. I use a 25 ga. 5/8 needle, which is next to painless. The small needle makes it hard to draw the liquid, but it is manageable. Results in the bedroom are far above expectations. Muscle tone and lean mass are great by-products of the regimen, but this is contributed to by the fact that I have continued an exercise program. I cannot say that my energy level has seen an increase, but all other factors are very favorable.Read More Read Less

Prescribed for low T and associated low energy and libido. Definite boost of libido and energy. Side effects experienced include diarrhea, sleep interruption, edema and testicular atrophy. Needed to be balanced with Anastazole to offset conversion to estrogen and HCG for testicle recovery.

Okay. A good boost for up to 3 or 4 days. 200 mg/cc per week. I have Low T. Testopel is much better and the best you can get! 350 to 1100 in one week. Medication lasts for 4 or 5 months.

I was on Androgel for a year and a half. insurance company said they would not pay for it because my T level was not 300 or lower (mine was 301) Dr said I could go to self injecting testosterone c. 1cc every other day. It has made a great difference. Lots of energy. Better mood. Even AM erections. Everyone should have their levels checked if they have symptoms of low T.

I was 35 and involved in a major car accident with my wife. I broke both legs and unable to walk for over three months. My wife wanted to try a weight loss place as a reward for us making it thru so I figured WTH well we met with the medical staff and decided to try it to help encourage her with the weight loss. Well I got my blood work results back and found that the heavy pain killers I was on killed my T levels (301) when they should have been around 800 for my age. I was put on the cyponate at 200mg once a week and I feel great!! I went from a bloated from all the drugs 210 to 167 and I could not be happier. The only issue is just the pain at injection site but a small inconvince for the result.Read More Read Less

I was 48 when I noticed a lack of energy and interest in sex. I informed my physician about this and was tested for Low T. My test results came back at 100. Started on a regiment of gel. Very expensive. Switched to Cypionate...much cheaper. I inject 200mg. every three weeks. Have been on it for 6 months. I have noticed a slight increase in libido, morning erections, and a better since of well-being. Just got rechecked and numbers came back at 120. The doctor is increasing the dosage to 300mg. every 2 weeks. I'm hoping to feel like some of the others on this board. Maybe the increase in dosage will help. I also inject it in my upper thigh with a 25 ga. needle. I draw the medicine up with a 21 ga. because of the thickness of the medicine. If you not afraid of needles the most economical way in Cypionate. Read More Read Less

I've been cyp for 6 months and I feel great. My T level was 219 before I started and is still low at 275 but my energy is way up. Wish I had started sooner. No negetive side effects that I can see. I'm on 2ml every 2 weeks. Its easy to inject and the boost the next day is good.

HELP! I am a senior citizen with low testosterone levels. The Doc put me on these injections. I got the first shot 2 days ago and have been in tremendous pain starting about 10 hours after she gave me the shot. Not one reviewer here has mentioned this. Thus it must not hurt them as much. What can I do to alleviate the pain in my butt?
