[CW needles, blood] T shot: debating whether to re-administer my shot this week. Click for explanation???

Everything went fine until I pulled the needle out and then suddenly my leg was bleeding so fast and so freely it ran onto the chair and was bleeding onto the floor before I even knew I was bleeding?!

It didn't even HURT, it just bled RIDICULOUSLY and now I don't know if I should. Re-do my dose because I don't know how much of it stayed in my goddamn body?!

how often do you do your shots, weekly?

«Wᴀɴᴅᴇʀᴇʀ» : Every other week!

I would say if you do shots weekly, I'd lean toward waiting until next week; granted I do sub q but full on missing a single week is usually not too bad while ending up with too much T from trying to make up shots has had docs be Concerned at me
every other week might be dicier - ahh yeah missing one of those would have you feeling shittier

I don't think I've noticed much difference even when I bled all over, but that might also be because missing a week usually isn't too bad for me

I would also say I personally have not noticed much difference from doing a shot a day or two late, etc, so if you can like... email your doc and ask, from my personal experience it won't be a huge deal if you have to wait a day and then they tell you "yeah do another shot"

I guess I can always see how I feel in a few days and if it seems to be A Problem I can just. Take another shot NEXT week and just proceed normally from there?

honestly I feel like T injections, at least anecdotally, are more forgiving than I'd have expected
re: missing stuff, having a smaller dose than expected, etc
there's good reasons to avoid putting in too much T but like. one dose being off doesn't do much imo
as long as docs don't blood test you right after and detect too much T and get worried

it's more whether you keep up with T shots normally long term

I just know that if I fully miss a shot, I start feeling weird mentally at around the time for the following shot after that
but I've never noticed non mental effects

if I have a half sized dose one week because of running out of T and forgetting to get a refill, I don't feel any difference at all

("Terry you seem to have a lot of experience with missing shots or doing weird shit with your shots" shhhh)

tldr I think whatever you do you'll be fine
if you can email a doc about it you can get a Doc Sanctioned response but either way

Yeah, see, I have.... uh. MECFS. And my T shot does help offset the fatigue and pain, so if it isn't working, I will DEFINITELY notice LMAO

that's reasonable! def worth checking with your doc if you can, then?

but if you definitely notice a lack of T, then in my non-doctor opinion, seeing if you feel it and resetting your shot schedule next week if you do is a reasonable approach

Calling is a hassle I don't have the energy for right now but maybe later this week I'll try... :|a

big bleeds haven't affected my weeks before, so you should be fine? but again, I'm subq and every week...

You likely nicked something on the way out, but the T itself is most probably in the muscle still. Unless you see the T itself come out or the blood was especially oily, there isn't much cause for concern. I've bled pretty bad before when I was taking my shots in the thigh, but my hormone levels stayed the same.
