question from a user
The doctors plan is 160mg a week the last I spoke with him. He said he wanted to give me a 500mg “boost”, then start the normal dose after 2 week. His pinning schedule is either weekly or biweekly - I know from reading this subreddit that most recommend at least twice a week injections for more stable levels - how much of a difference would once a week be? The doctor also doesn’t prescribe HCG - so I was thinking of finding a site like yours to source that and figure out a dosage.

Once a week injections always carry the risk of your T levels dropping to levels where your symptoms may return later in the week.
