When using hormones properly one should be primarily injecting IM (intramuscularly) so as to reduce processing through the liver. For most people like yourself I'd start with a very light cycle of test:250-500 mg/ week. If you want to stack or add an oral (dbol for example) that's okay but your base should be test. You will also be shutting down the natural production of testosterone so it's vital to run a proper PCT to restore your levels after you're done using.
There are other precautions you can take when using to make sure you are taking care of your body. There is s lot to learn about manipulating our body's natural hormone levels. If you have questions (which you should) do your research, PM me, or ask it here for the benefit of others considering the use of gear. I hope I've helped you somewhat. Good luck and take care of your liver!

I obviously know nothing about willfully gaining weight, but I hate to see you take anything that can harm your liver and other innards.

Hey double deuces,
I have lots of questions and have started to do some research. Someone else PMed me a place and the guys that run it will explain proper uses. I'll continue to do research and if i have questions ill PM you. My doctor wanted me to go on TRT (i believe that is what it was), but my insurance denied it because my T levels were only 5% below normal. I plan on running as short of a cycle as possible to gain about 20-30lbs while working out. And I've read about how if you take X, then you need to take Y also, then Z when done to get your levels natural again. This is kind of a last resort for me, but I can't gain weight when I'm working out now because it's so hard for me to eat and get in enough calories during my stomach flareups and I'mnott toning up much either.
I apologize, I did not realize the medical issue. Just thought you wanted to run some gear maybe for athletic performance or bodybuilding. Since your situation is different I'll give you the best advice I can. I have friends with crohns disease and I know how tough it can be to absorb nutrients and digest food properly so I'm sorry to hear that. But before choosing to use steroids to up your weight, it is very much worth listening to what Harley and others have said about doing it in a natural way through diet (I know tough with stomach issues) and exercise. Does your insurance cover a dietician? They can be of great help in finding foods that will work with your body and getting you on a diet that will increase your body mass.
Personally, I don't think someone who's T levels are down only 5% should turn to anabolics. That's a figure that can be brought back into normal range with simple lifestyle changes. Now the down in weight thing sucks, but there are many who'd love to have your issue
. Unless you have a severe wasting disease a physician is not (or should not) be prescribing you steroids. Also, understand that steroids are not miracle drugs. Most people will not keep the gains they make on cycle unless they are really dedicated to their fitness regimen. This is a simple truth, so understand the results you see may be short lived causing you to want to return to the use of steroids as many often do.Now lastly, and this is the part that is most important: If you have completely made up your mind and decided this is the road you want to take, you need to do it right. The take x and y and z thing is not just bro-science. It's information available to young men/ men so they don't do permanent damage to there testes and endocrine systems. I've seen guys do wreck less steroids cycles only to end up infertile and on TRT the rest of their lives. Meaning they have to stick a needle in their ass forever because their body's no longer have the ability to naturally produce T (it's some serious shit). I am an open book and can answer a lot of questions you have. I just like to make it very clear to anyone considering usage that there are serious risks involved and its wise to minimize them as much as possible.
Please feel free to ask any questions in regard to your diet, exercise routine, or gear and the safest way to use it. I'm happy to help!
