I just got my first shot of T! I can't believe it.  I can't believe I managed to jab myself with a needle either.  I did it on my own cause it would have been too expensive to get it done by the doctor.  But I did it!  It wasn't too bad either.  I think it helps that I'm doing my shots sub-q, so the needle is quite small.  I froze for a few minutes before getting it in, but then I took a deep breath, and as I exhaled, I pushed it in.  I think that helped too.  But yeah, this is day 1 on T for me!

Congrats!!! Thats awesome, I give you a lot of credit for doing it yourself! Did the doctor explain how to do it? or did you have to figure it out on your own?

Thanks! The doctor had a nurse show me how to do it when he wrote out the prescription.  So between that, and watching several videos of guys on youtube, I had a pretty good idea of what do to.

congrats

Congrats man

and extra credit for doing it yourself. I can't do it so I get my gf to hahah 

Congrats!  I'm impressed you did it yourself.  Subcutanious sounds a lot better than muscular shots.  Is there a difference in the results you get?

Heh, I don't think I would have been able to do it myself if I had to do IM injections.  Those needles would freak me out.  I don't think there is much of a difference, if any at all.  I know that Bryan (puck13rocker) on youtube does subq and has had the same results as guys who do IM.  So yeah, I really like the Sub-Q versus IM, cause the needle that I use to inject is only 5/8ths of an inch long.  Thanks again everyone!

Congrats man!  I do mine IM as I haven't found enough scientific evidence supporting testosterone injections SQ, but that's great that you did your own shot.

SQ needles are generally smaller, so...  1" versus 5/8" and 21 gauge versus 25 or 27 gauge.  I'd say that's a pretty big difference.

Awesome. I just started a week ago. First shot was done by a nurse though. I will be doing mine IM.

dude, that's amazing...
maybe in the near future, im gonna ask you how to do it. and hope you'll help
i'll be a bit later than you

but i wait 'till the day i got the 1st shot

Congrats! Here's to the first of many shots for the rest of your life.

Congratulations.

CONGRATS! 

Edit: Missed your post Shayne but wanted to add in a congrats to you as well

Thanks guys! And congrats to you too Shayne!

Congratulations.
And, by your picture, I would have actually guessed that you were already on T, so congrats on that too haha.

Congrats!  The needle problem is mostly mental.  I'm glad you got over that first hurdle!
