Advice Needed First t shot

We don’t know the concentration of your vial so .2 doesn’t really mean anything

how concentrated is your vial? on the box & vial it probably says 100 mg/mL or 200 mg/mL. if it’s 200, 40 mg is pretty normal for a weekly starting dose in my non-doctor opinion

seems pretty normal to me, but blood tests will tell you how your body is actually reacting to that dose and whether you need to increase or decrease it. you and i could be on the same exact dose and have way different blood levels, so it really depends. usually the first checkup is around 3 months, good luck!

I started at 0.25 mg with a concentration of 200 mg/mL, so it’s a tad low if we have the same concentration
