I have just started on 1.5 Biest, 25 mg progesterone and 1 mg of testosterone in the form of cream. I am supposed to use 1/2 ML at night and 1/2 ML in morning. I'm not sure how much a ML is. It is in a large syringe and has markings. Is there a secret to "really " know how much you are using. She is also sending me a combination of testosterone and something...to use topic on my "lips" and surrounding areas. Has anyone had any luck with these? If you are currently using this combination please tell me of your results. Thanks, Harriet

Harriet: I haven't used the hormones that you mention. I posted to answer your question about what 1/2 ml is. That is about 1/10 of a teaspoon. A teaspoon is 5 ml. If you took an eyedropper and let a drop of water come out it would measure 1/10 (.1) ml so 5 drops would be 1/2 (.5) ml. If you fill your syringe with water and drop it onto a teaspon you may be able to see how to read the syringe markings.

Oh, I see that your syringe is already filled. If the markings don't make complete sense to you after reading my explanation, take it back to the pharmacist and ask them to explain.

I take DHEA is a cream filled syringe and there are 2 sets of markings on it. They explained to me which markings to follow. So if you're not sure, WhiteHorses is right and you should ask the pharmacist.
