I always wondered what happens if you inject your estrogen into somewhere other than the butt. I'm on a major cutting regimen (going from 185 pounds to 135 pounds) but I want to make sure I don't eliminate my breast growth in the process.
It has to go into muscle or it wont be nearly as effective. Your testes nor your breasts are muscular (enough) to hold all of the oil. Simply putting E into certain places doesn't cause that certain place to malfunction or grow because of the E, because cellular reproduction and the endocrine system in general do not work that way. Although I imagine you may develop a lesion if you inject it into spots it wasn't meant to go into. You may screw your testes up but who knows what side effects you'd have along with that.
Jeez into the testicles really? That sounds like a recipe for disaster and a lot of pain, don't do that.
Your likely to do permanent damage to yourself. Please talk to a doctor before you try something as dangerous as injecting into your testicles.
Also, I dunno about injections, but the patch instructions specifically say not to put the estrogen patch on the breasts because it increases the risk of breast cancer.

Was just about to post this.
And in the testicles... that just sounds like a recipe for disaster. I mean, even if it was safe (which I extremely doubt) who knows if it would go anywhere else in your body anyways?
No, just no. I just did my first injection on Monday. I had a hard time putting that giant thing into my leg muscle that I could not even comprehend putting that thing in a more sensative spot like my breasts or the useless bits. Just please don't. Its best to follow doctors instructions in this case and in most things related to HRT, imo.

Sounds like a bad idea that would most likely result in doing some serious harm to yourself
HRT is something that should not be taken lightly, for the sake of your own better health please talk to your Dr. and do it correctly
I know that estrogen creams/gels should not be used on the breasts.
This is a really nutty idea, if you ask me.
Okay, here's the deal. From Drugs.com
Care should be taken to inject deeply into the upper, outer quadrant of the gluteal muscle following the usual precautions for intramuscular administration. By virtue of the low viscosity of the vehicles, the various preparations of Estradiol Valerate Injection, USP may be administered with a small gauge needle (i.e., 20 Gauge × 1 ½ inches long). Since the ... potency provides a high concentration in a small volume, particular care should be observed to administer the full dose.
The topic is now locked.
If you have information that it is a valid medical procedure to inject estrogen into the breasts or testicles, send me a PM or email, and I will unlock the topic so you can post the information. Otherwise, I must assume this proposed practice represents self-medication, as it is site policy to NOT encourage such practices.
