Self-inject T 50mg twice a week, subq with #29 1/2" 0.5ml insulin syringe, pinch up skin fold over upper leg, inject into fold with needle parallel to muscles below.

When you inject every two weeks, T levels get very high then fall and can be very low. The biggest determinator of your lab results is lab timing and such lab results are useless.
