I need some advice. I took 750 mg of testosterone undecanoate. A female friend told me that I should take the full dose, then another dose after a week, and then another one 3 months later.

I just talked to an older trans guy, and he told me that I had made a huge mistake, that the testosterone would convert into estrogen, and that the dose I took at once was too high.

Is that actually true? I’m doing this on my own, without medical supervision, and this was my first time.

I took 750 mg of testosterone undecanoate (250 mg/mL, 3 mL), a long-acting intramuscular testosterone injection. The brand name in Egypt is Testeriol.

I don't even have my testosterone yet (its expected to arrive within the next 2 weeks) but my guardian found 75% of my injection supplies. I hid them in different places so thankfully I still have about ~6 months worth of syringes and needles. yes, I stocked up a lot 💔 My guardian says she's "doing this to protect me." She says she's protecting me because I am suicidal and used to self harm quite severely. I don't like to call it severe but it was considered such. I think she's just using it as an excuse to go through my stuff. I'm nearly 16 and have very limited access to going outside and such as well. If my testosterone gets through customs and if I can obtain it, I have a feeling that she's going to find it within a few weeks. Hiding the effects of testosterone and dealing with her finding out is a whole other thing. My housing is stable so I'm safe in that regard. In terms of harming myself, testosterone is truly the best option for my mental health and safety to prevent that. She can't understand that. I can't even let my guardian know I'm planning on doing diy. She's going to limit what little nonexistent privacy I have. I really need this. I'm currently hiding some of my supplies in a harmonica box, in pencil cases and in my glasses case. I ordered 2 vials so hopefully if one is found, the other can survive. I'm just so upset because my shit was discovered before I even got to start hrt.

As the title says, I have too much muscle and not enough fat to do subq. :( It's been less than 2 months on 50 mg cypionate. I didn't think i would get fat distribution so quickly (if it's that..), and i don't have the needles nor the courage to do IM...I've been trying to scrape up some money for gel, but it's so expensive. >:(

All in all, is this normal? Is it a blood clot? Will it go away with time?
