I find that the itch usually lasts as long as I can feel the oil bubble from the injection (subq). But injection site massages kind of work the oil into the blood faster and make the itch go away faster.

I will put hydrocortisone cream on it throughout the day, whenever im itchy, and it generally helps a lot. Ive talked to my provider and they basically said not to worry about it, but if it gets worse then we might want to change to a different solution. Theres another type of injectable T thats suspended in a different oil that can be less irritating if the one youre on is goving you trouble, but generally it is more expensive.

I changed the needle size that I use (if you use insulin needles that’s likely why. I used 20 gauge to draw and 30 to inject.) otherwise it might be where you inject. My stomach has always been the worst for me.
