Hey, so I’ve seen lots of mixed reactions Between both. On my first cycle, I ran with grapeseed oil, no issues at all, Noticed it was Thicker than expected, which made me run slightly Thicker Needles, which isn’t a big deal. As for MCT oil, people say it’s more “watery” and the PIP is non existent? Any Reviews of MCT or should I just stick to grapeseed oil?

I myself have used both, and I find that MCT has a much thinner viscosity and pins very easily using a 27g pin thus eliminating a good amount of scar tissue build up. The post injection pain is nonexistent for me but can vary between users. Hope this helps :)

I like MCT, but the secret is to inject SLOWLY! It pushes so much easier that slow and steady is the secret to avoiding pip.

MCT is thinner. For this reason, it’s easier to pin BUT it will also disperse and thus absorb more rapidly in the depot.

Believe it or not, Carrier oil has a HUGE effect on the pharmacokinetics of testosterone. The other major variables affecting absorption rate are the ester, IM vs. SUBQ (IM generally faster), and your individual genetics.

Viscosity isn't something I had considered to have an effect on absorption rate but it does make sense. Interesting.
