My question would be why you think you need TRT with those numbers.
Not judging, but above 500 is still pretty good. (Obviously 1100 feels MUCH better.)
If you're willing to make the commitment with a doc, cool. 500 is the "cut off" for a lot of anti-aging clinics so it's not like 500 isn't low enough.
For the first 4 weeks on TRT, you'll be a beast and feel like you're on gear.
Your body won't be shut down yet, so you'll have the natural 500 levels + TRT.
So you'd be better off seeing how you feel after 6 to 8 weeks.
An AI is an AI. Generic is as good as brand name. It's the same stuff.
Needles depends on how you're gonna shot.
You can go 5/8", 25 gauge needles if you're going into your delt.
If you're gonna hit the glute, you'll need 1.5" needles.
If you're gonna use a slin pin (per the video I just posted), then you'll just need a big enough gauge needly to draw the test from the vial.
"slin pin" = insulin syringes. They are going to be 29 or 30 gauge. Just say insulin syringe and your doc will know.
There are lots of good YouTube videos showing how to give an intramuscular injection in the delt and glute. Check 'em out and see if that's the route you wanna take.
