I had the option of using transdermal gel or injections... I opted for injections just because of the hassle of using gel. Plus gels raise DHT significantly higher than injections do... also if you have kids, gfs (especially pregnant ones), etc... there is also a risk if the gels come in contact w/ them (bed sheets)

100mg test cyp per week keeps me in the 900-1000 reference range... top of the reference being around 1100. I try not to go higher than that because its considered "steroidal" levels if you're above & outside of the range... that's where other issues start to happen (estrogen rising, etc).

All are manageable though, I've done plenty of cycles over the years and probably will again in the future.... but for cruising I prefer to stay within the reference range. I've found my balance
