Test not getting into the muscle

[Mikey54]

Hello Everyone, I hope this is the right spot for my question. Short version of my story I was misdiagnosed by a doctor and I went from 185 to 326 in about a year and a half because of depression and the wrong meds.

OK, that is fixed and I am now at about 296 and my doctor has me on test therapy.

The problem is, I think the shots I am getting are not getting into the muscle I think they are only going into the fat. Will that still work?

Is there anyway I can tell if that is what is happening, should I tell her I want it in the shoulder or another spot.

Just any thoughts on this would be helpful but bottom line I don't seem to be able to feel or see any results from the test.

Thanks

use 1 and 1/2 inch needles, should note resistance to injection, also test therapy should be combined with anti-estrogen therapy and hGH for maximum results for wt loss

I always go with 1.5" needle just to be sure but another good way to check is your blood work. If this is doctor prescribed they should be doing regular blood work on you as well. If you know what your baseline T-Levels are and you do an injection and then have blood work done again you should see a noticable increase in T-Levels after the injection.

I've also read that although it's recommended to inject directly into the muscle....should you not go deep enough and it's only injected subcutaneously
it will still get absorbed into the bloodstream. It will just cause a mild bump in the injection site until all is absorbed by the body. Shouldn't be a big deal.

sit on the counter in your bathroom or wherever...pull your ass cheek down and sit on skin/fat as much as possible so that you have a firm area to toss the 1.5" dart into..you'll know when you hit muscle. If you didn't feel it, pull it out and do it in your delt until you get leaner.
