Father's TRT

Hi Guys.

As you know about 10 weeks ago my Dad started TRT through his Doc. I am currently paying him a visit to see how he is doing and helping him with a eating plan and workout routine. He has already started on his own doing the circuit at his local gym. His 8 week bloods look good his Testosterone is in the higher normal range E2 in range his Hemocrit count is up but still in range he has started donating blood again and says he feels better after donating blood. He has a blood pressure monitor and keeps record his Bp is slightly elevated. Kept his carbs low yesterday and today and bp is better. So I got him a huge tob of Omega's 3;6;9 and SSN muscle Vitamin packs. He looks way better I was shocked he has muscle tone again and his waist is way smaller. He said he feels like he is in his early 30's again.

No my concern he is pinning with skin pins sub q in his stomach and has a inflamed oil ball on the right side next to his belly button. I gave him a Voltaren shot and some voltren tablets. And showed him how to pin Delts and quads and vent flute. Any other tips?

Sorry that was meant to be Slin Pins and Vent Glute not Flute

Fantasties om te hoor hoe dit sy gesondheid verbeter!

Unless you are known to specifically need a extra Omega-6s and -9s, stick with only Omega 3's. 2g
EPA, 1.5g DHA. Omega-6& -9s are plentiful in modern diets, and excess and even be counter productive.

If you inject sub-q, those visible oil balls will occur, no doubt about it. How often does he need to pin? Isn't it worthwhile just to go intra-muscular every time? Dit moet 'n eeu vat om slin pins te doen lol.

PS: If he does vent-glutes, he's got more balls than me!

He does 50mg Monday and 50mg Thursday. G
He is on 100mg/ml Pfizer Test Cypionate so 0.5ml x2 per week. The skin pins actually goes quickly if the gear is kept in a cupboard but take it out of the fridge and its like drawing and pinning syrup

Ive heard the same never store in fridge as it becomes thick like syrup\honey :blink:

I pin subQ twice a week with testE and have never had an issue with pips or build up. Remember he can pin shbQ anywhere I normally do my belly but sometimes my quads. It gets easier once he gets into a routine. All the reserch points to subQ being preferable to IM for TRT the tought of trying to pin 25iu IM twice a week sounds like a pain in the Ass to me
Slin pins fill up with test quickly and is no issue what so ever

Rooi bul, let him rather pin delts if he wants to use slin needles. I usually did the same in my stomach and lower quad and it caused me lots and lots of pain.

I've been on TRT for a year now and for most of it have injected Sq in the stomach area. I draw with a 21 and jab with a 26g. Pips do happen but only occasionally and they usually go away quickly. I find they happen if you dont get the angle right or if you go too fast. Remember the pressure at the site from a smaller gauge like slins is higher, that can cause pips as well.
Also i was advised by not to keep my test in the fridge, leave it in a cool dark cupboard and then you don't inject it cold. Don't go IM. Too many shots for too long if he's on it for good. Hope that helps.
