I will be getting dht,test and some Cialis powder soon, I'm planning on making transdermal gels for dht and testosterone and I'm just going to put the Cialis in capsules, my problem is I'm useless at stuff like this, Im planning on using DMSO but I think I would prefer ethanol as I can't be bothered for the hassle of having to be very clean and making sure nothing else is on my skin when using the DMSO, how exactly do I make a gel with this? I'm looking to have 5mg in each drop, it would be good to be able to make it the same as ideallabs products feel, as I like this.

Why poison yourself with Cialis. Weird. You know that increases dangerous nitric oxide, right? Have you read what Dr. Peat has said about nitric oxide?

To your point, I just mix fat soluble with a little vitamin E liquid and rub it on.

Be careful!

You could dissolve it in a bottle of pansterone or buy pure ethanol. I found this online source awhile ago.

Ethanol (Non-Denatured) – Solvent, 50mL

It actually just uses the availible nitric oxide I don't think it increases it, and I've been using it for a long time anyway and I notice no negatives from it, except it's expensive but this way with powder a lot cheaper.

What about dosage though how do I get 5mg in each drop? And is it that simple just put the powder in a bottle of ethanol?
Probably can’t dissolve 5mg per drop. I’d go with 0.5-1mg per drop. First figure out how accurate your dropper is for the bottle you will use. To know how many drops per ml it produces. If you use pansterone you’d know it’s about 360 drops already, so you could just add 360mg to get 1 mg per drop.

I don't want to use pansterone I want test and dht on its own without pregnenolone and dhea, I will buy ethanol and a bottle to mix the ethanol and dht or test in with, I just don't know how to know how many mgs will be in a drop.

You need to figure out how many drops/ml your dropper will have then you’ll need to do just some basic algebra.

If you want to use the whole 50ml bottle of ethanol.

50ml x (drops/ml) = total drops

If you want 1 mg/drop
(1 mg/drop)*(total drops)= mg’s of powder you should add

Honestly I'm terrible at this I'm still don't really get it, could you simplify it for me if you can, say I have 50ml bottle of ethanol and I want to add 100mg of dht to it how do I figure out how much is in each drop?

It depends on the dropper you use as it can vary, but average drops/ml is about 20.

(20 drops/ml)*(50 ml) = 1000 drops

So you should have close to 1 mg per drop if you add 1000 mg. Could be slightly more or less depending on the dropper though.

Ok,so I have 50ml ethanol, I add 1 gram of dht to the 50ml of ethanol and that should give me about 1mg per drop? Abit lower or higher I don't mind aslong as it is close enough.

Yeah should be not be off more than 0.25 mg.

Ok seems pretty easy that way.

Is this an ok ethanol? 500 ml. 95% Absolutely Pure ETHYL - Not Denatured - Wheat Ethanol | eBay or does it need to be denatured?

Also if I went with DMSO would it be the same? 50ml DMSO to 1 gram dht or test?
Not sure. I think non denatured as close to 100% as possible would be preferred.

Yes, same for DMSO.

Might be a good idea to get a glass dropper bottle like this with measured markings so you can know accurately how many drops per ml and how much solvent you’ve added to the bottle.

3 PACK* 60ml 2oz Cobalt Blue Glass Bottle w/ Measured Dropper Top.Essential Oils | eBay
