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...

Started taking testosterone at 1ml twice a month, levels still low so dose was doubled. I can't prove that it is the cause of my weight loss of 70 lbs but my muscle mass has definately improved, tummy is much flatter and shoulders, legs and arms looks like it did 15 years ago. libido has also increased. I use a 20 guage needle to draw out of bottle and a 25 guage to inject in thigh, no pain at all. Moodiness has diminished greatly and I feel "more like a man" than I have in years.

Once you learn how to inject your glutes it's not so difficult as it may seem to get used to having TO STICK A 16-GUAGE needle in your buttocks. I started at 200mg every 14 days, but my levels were still below normal so my dr. upped the dose to 200mg every week. The morning "pick up" goes away quickly, and soon enough you just feel normal and less depressed or unsure of yourself than you once did.

What a change in my life! I went for two years wondering where my sex drive had gone, working out 3 hours of cardio and 3 hours of weight lifting a week loosing not an ounce of body fat on a 2000 calorie low carb low fat diet, suffered planar fascietus, carple tunnel syndrome and stiff joints, and severe moodiness. Within 3 weeks of my weekly injections of 100 mg weekly, all symptons were reversed except the body fat. I went from 18% body fat down to 12% over the following three months with the same workout routine I had been using to no evail prior to testosterone Cypionate replacement. This is a cure, not a treatment. Swear by it, changed my life for the better. Will use for the rest of my life. The only side effect is occassional unwanted erections.Read More Read Less

I am a 54 year old male diagnosed with low T. My T level was at 188. I was tired. weak and generally feeling run down. My doctor noticed the low levels and we worked through three months of injections starting at 1 cc/two weeks. I am now at 1.2cc each week, my wife gives me my weekly injections. Eight months into the program my T level is at 865. My fatigue symptoms are nonexistent. After starting a weight program I have gained 14 lbs of lean muscle. I look (according to others) and feel great. My love life has improved dramatically, and my wife thanks me, often. Coupled with a vegetarian life style, sensible exercise, and sufficient protein intake, I am at peak fitness and health. My suggestion- find a doctor willing to work with you to promote well being and get those levels checked, you will be glad you did!Read More Read Less

I was diagnosed with low testosterone levels (188) and tried saw palmeto. It didn't work. Started testosterone cypionate injections every 2 weeks (200mg)finally readjusted to 200mg every week. Levels are back up. Sex drive is back (awesome) and have a renewed energetic feeling. The 21 gauge needle leaves me sore for a day or two but when I changed to 23 gauge there is no pain. My wife does the injections weekly and blood tests are done once every 8 weeks. I am very happy with the results. As a added bonus, along with strength training, I have added 10lbs of muscle and look as good as I feel.Read More Read Less

Due to low testosterone levels (188)I began my therapy with a 1 ml (200mg)once every two weeks. This was increased to 1 1/2 ml every two weeks and then to my current level of 1 ml (200mg) every week. My levels are now up and I feel great! Libido is excellent and , coupled with strength training, I have gained 6 lbs. of muscle mass. The injections are administered by my wife and are quick, easy and mostly pain free.

Due to a birth defect I had testicular complications in my late 40's and had to have an orchiectomy. I was one testical undecended from birth that was not working at all and had been removed about 6 years ago. I had my levels tested then, and was in the 200 range. I used androgel which caused a skin rash, and after having complications with my other testicle and having to have it removed, the doctors decided on cypionate injections. The only body mass large enough I had to take the injection in was the in the buttocks which made it difficult to self inject. The shots boosted my levels as high in the beggining to the 800 to 1000 level and then after getting the dose corrected, it leveled out to around 700 at the peak. The injections helped with everything, energy, libido, muscle mass, chest and facial hair, and health in general. Didn't help with my X-wife!!! She wasn't ready for the changed me. Only problem I've had is that after 2 years of injections, my levels have steadily dropped off. I have a weekly shot that has varied from 1.2 to .75ml and get tested two days afterwards. On the 3rd year I have had a steady decrease in the levels and even ywo readings of ZERO for the lab. The doctors can't figure it out. If anyone out there has had similar results and what they found to help, please rely. I'm taking DHEA suppliments now due to low levels there too.Read More Read Less

I was on Androgel for 3 years. It never worked well for me and stopped working all together a few months ago. I switched to 100mg/week of TC and now wish I had been on injections the whole time. My T levels went from 365 to 731 and I feel 100% better. Endurance, muscle mass, and libido have improved dramatically and ED has almost disappeared in just 3 months.
