question from a user
I am taking .2 ml a day of 200 mg/ml sub q. Would there be a benefit of doubling that and taking every other day? Would that allow some fluctuations of my levels or is having more consistent levels better?
AlphaMD's Answer
Most men do just fine with twice weekly injections and don’t notice the fluctuations. If you feel good now, then the “if it ain’t broke don’t fix it” approach works best. Though needle fatigue is a real thing. Doing shots everyday can get old.
