One bottle should last about a month but some people need more and some people need less. It's easier to adjust the dose this way though. You just take a bit more or a bit less.

Alas. So far teh gel is fine. I'm not noticing much difference yet but that is to be expected after only one week.

Those injections tend to fluctuate a lot less than Sustanon.

He wants a stable level at all times. So the gel is basically the only option.<br /><br />The hospital in Leiden destroyed my referral letter because "they didn't know what to do with it." So that's no longer an option. <br /><br />I'm really curious what's going to happen. Time will tell.

Have you heard anything from the Leiden hospital yet?<br />Congrats on starting the hormones, I hope they are exactly as you want them to be. You'll notice (small) changes soon. My voice even changed a little bit in the first week on T, it's still going up and down but it's not as high as before (a bit over 2 months on T).Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10680775735559908615noreply@blogger.com
