I do IM. I started on bi-weekly, but when my dose was doubled it was too much for my system at once so I was switched to weekly. But changes have been crazy slow so I'm wondering if every week is too often and maybe every 10 days would be better. I want to talk to my doctor about it but I just moved so it's a little difficult at the moment. I wanted to get a good idea of what works for other guys first though so that I could bring that information to her.
Eh, IM every 12 weeks. I like it that way.
Subq every week but I honestly skip a week here and there and sometimes I'm a day or two later... I suck at shots.
I'm bi-weekly IM shots. I actually have a neat reminder so I remember mine. Hubs gets paid bi-weekly on a Friday and that following Monday is when my shot is due. It's pretty convenient since I have a terrible memory and my phone refuses to work correctly and remind me at noon on that Monday and instead bugs me at midnight lol
I'm sub q every week, i'm pretty good about it, need to get to my doctor appointment to see if she will change it or not
I'm bi-weekly IM. I like it that way since it's not too often.
subq every week for me
IM once a week. I find it's a nice ritual to have every week.
Mine's IM, every two weeks. I still have to go to the hospital every other week to get them too, which is annoying as hell. Surprised it hasn't driven me crazy yet, haha. I'm hoping the next time I meet with my endo he'll get me started doing them at home.
IM, every 3 weeks.

Hey how does that work out? Is it the same kind of T? How are your peaks/lows?

Program your phone to remind you at 12:01 pm. That should sort it. :)

It's just standard dose enanthate. That's the initial timeline my GP put me on when I first started, and since my levels (with peaks/lows) are always pretty optimal, that's what I've stuck with.
Always in mid-range for a normal male.
IM every 2 weeks. I've just started this week. Feeling fantastic. Already have changes (growth & voice). Pretty neat. Mental changes are amazing. My body is relaxed/clam and no more anxiety.
Every Thursday, IM. I definitely feel more even keel and happier though I was even tempered to begin with. Just waiting on that voice... Starting to have slightly embarrassing croaky moments which confirms that whole teenage boy thing I seem to have going on. Oh well :P
Every ten days, which works out to three times a month. It's nice because I don't have to stab myself with an inch and a half needle too often.
IM every week. I was getting faster changes at first, I'm hoping I change more than this and that I eventually look like a "normal" guy since the line of work I'm going into is notoriously homophobic and transphobic. I can hide my sexual orientation, I hope, but if I don't change any more than this. . . everyone will know I am trans and I am worried about being passed over for the job. :(
My GP does mine....... IM every 10 weeks.....
