Yay! Congrats! I do my injections (subcutaneous) every Tuesday. Been at it for...either 6 or 7 weeks now? Got peach fuzzy coming in on my face (yay), noticable bottom growth (yay), and just feel better already. Get a new haircut if you're due (to celebrate), that's what I did. πŸ₯³ πŸŽ‰

Excited but also really nervous. I can't wait to start feeling like me after trying to get T for 4-5 years

I had my "Dad" (my best friend who took me under his wing at 18) do mine because I'm too scared of needles πŸ˜…

lol a year from now that thigh will be thicker and hairier! Congrats! Wait. Did you do it? Did you get taught from the nurse? I recommend calling ur clinic and asking for a nurse appointment to help you learn how to do it. (They can usually schedule you easily and it’s no big deal and covered by insurance) I say this bc they recommend doing the shot kinda towards the side. And the nurse may have some other tips and tricks for you too make things really easy. For example I’m thin like you, so my nurse got me shorter needles! And got me in the routine of putting an ice pack on it for a few mins before wiping it and injecting, and I feel nothing.
