@Santosh and just a 1:1 ratio of vodka and mct?
I don't think that's it.Doesn't at all in my set up.

I would probably get rid of the BA in a DIY formula.
Would it offer any particular and substantial benefit that the other ingredients don't already? I don't think so. I would just rather not use it if it's not absolutely necessary.Why ?
Thanks for your comment. This company has a lot of transdermal products so maybe you will find some helpful info.Thanks for sharing.
It's interesting that they chose isopropanol over ethanol, but I heard that it evaporates a bit slower than ethanol, so perhaps that. It would be interesting to know the quantities of each ingredient, but I presume that the isopronanol is the largest, with PG, BA, and OA being in much smaller quantities(as opposed to more even quantities like 20% of each) The DHEA would weigh roughly 10% in this solution, therefore there is at least 10% of PG, BA, and OA. That means there is hypothetically, 50% of IPA, 10% PG, 10% BA, 10% OA, and 10% DHEA, and the rest of the ingredients making up the last 10%.
I couldn't find an exact pubchem page for the Butyl-benzoyl-sulphimide, but I think it might actually be N-butylbenzenesylfonamide. If that's true, then its a neurotoxin and an anti-androgen, as it says in the pubchem page. N-Butylbenzenesulfonamide
The glycerin is a humectant, so it's a worthwhile addition. I don't know what Stearyl methacrylate does, but it looks to be a surfactant and therefore probably a penetration enhancer. And the last two are fragrances.
Over-all, pretty interesting. I figure that It must have a pretty good absorption rate and must maintain that for quite a while. The alcohol would theoretically extract a bunch of the lipids, which would get replaced with the compounds in this.

Yeah, and that's nice and all, but it doesn't do very much in this formulation. Besides the penetration enhancement, it's useless. You can easily reach a concentration of 100mg/ml with 50% ethanol. You know that.High solubilization and penetration enhancement.
It's the strongest steroid solvent known to man.
Is that a tren prohormone?Isopropanol, propylene glycol, benzyl alcohol, cis-9-octadecanoic acid, estra-4,9,11-methacrylate, nerolidol, glycerin, hypromellose
Seen the above formula for a topical pro-hormone if that’s any use to you, seems to be similar to the DHEA previously posted
I'll check them out, thanks!Thanks for your comment. This company has a lot of transdermal products so maybe you will find some helpful info.

Actually it is a tren prohormone. Not used or intent to ever use it myself but thought the contents for the topical application might help.Is that a tren prohormone?
Seems that this specific formula is popular
Gotcha, I'm just curious haha.Actually it is a tren prohormone. Not used or intent to ever use it myself but thought the contents for the topical application might help.
I currently use a mixture of DMSO, Vit E and lanolin but I am following this thread with interest as you’re clearly applying a lot of care and thought.
Approx 5% Vit E in mixture, lanolin separate and applied as necessary, mainly for combatting the harsh nature of DMSO on skin (especially the sensitive skin on scrotum). Has the nice bonus of being a precursor too, I had thought about cholesterol but the price was the main issue.Gotcha, I'm just curious haha.
Interesting. How much VIt E and lanolin do you use, and what's the consistency like?
Hmm, I wonder if squalane would also work. It's not exactly a precursor, squalene is (the unsaturated version). But perhaps the body can utilize both.Approx 5% Vit E in mixture, lanolin separate and applied as necessary, mainly for combatting the harsh nature of DMSO on skin (especially the sensitive skin on scrotum). Has the nice bonus of being a precursor too, I had thought about cholesterol but the price was the main issue.
Yeah I get that. I went through so many failed batches, its such a waste. Interesting that the Vit E doesn't change the texture, I assume it's getting solubilized. Hmm, that means that the lanolin isn't and also that it would indeed be a good option for a thicker DMSO solution.Edit to add that the consistency is same as if the Vit E wasn’t there. If lanolin was in mixture the consistency would change dramatically. It would create a lot of waste to play around and get it right, much simpler to keep it separate.
Nice. P5, P4, DHEA, T, DHT and something else?I use that combination for 6 different ‘steroids’ grouped into two lots, so three different bottles.
