I have an rx for test-e im inj., but am not sure which needles to use? i'm not obese and have very little fat on my buttocks. 1" or 1.5"? what gauge?

1" is fine: Hi. 1" is fine. Testosterone enanthate is pretty viscous stuff, so we usually have people draw it into the syringe with an 18 g needle, then change needles to a 20 g for injecting into them. So a 1" 20g needle should suit you. Have you thought about transdermal testosterone? You might want to talk with your doc about that. Good luck!
