Help me understand esters a little better

[Ricky_blobby]

Ok I understand that long esters basically act as a "time release".

What I don't fully understand is how much plasma concentrations spike immediately upon injection.

For instance, after an injection of, say, 100mg TNE, I understand basically all that test winds up in your bloodstream.

Not inject a comparable amount of test cyp, 125mg or so to account for the ester, what percentage if that would you say is in your bloodstream 2 hours later as compared to the TNE? How much cyp would you have to inject to get the same punch as the 100mg TNE? Or is it even possible?

Everyone is a little different, since enzymes remove the ester but 25-35% can be released in 24hours.

Other factors to consider. Carrier oil can affect 'release rate and so can the choice of the injection site.
