Title: Only able to inject partial dose
Post by: patrick1967 on January 11, 2017, 02:31:33 PM
Due to a needle malfunction (I forgot to check if it was screwed on tightly) I lost almost half of my dose. I assume the half life means it should not be a major issue but still concerned about it. My last results (2 month) my T was at 496. It shouldn't be a major issue correct?

That's happened to me a couple times. The first time was my second shot but this last time was just a couple months ago. As far as I could tell, it really didn't cause any issues aside from me being irritated as hell that it happened in the first place. You'd have to consistently be getting half your current dose for a somewhat extended period of time to really experiences changes (in the wrong direction) or a lack thereof.

Anyway, don't sweat it. It happens and it will more than likely not be the last time it occurs.

Yes, this. You should be just fine as long as it's a one time experience and not a regular occurrence. You might feel a little moodier or fatigued toward the end of your shot cycle before your next shot, but other than that totally fine.
