Why am I losing gear?

**general31** · 07-18-2004, 06:15 PM

The last two times I injected I have had a lot of gear run back out the injection site. I have had this happen before a little but not this much. I am using 1 cc fina and about 1.3 cc prop because it is only about 90mg/ml. I am using 1 " 23g pins in delts and 1 1/2 23g in a$$. It has happened in both spots, what the hell is going on?

I'm not sure why this problem would arrise suddenly when it wasn't there before but I would suggest letting the needle sit in the spot for a ten count after your done pushing the plunger in. Then be ready with an alcohol wipe and get it right on there. Massage it and you should n't lose anything to speak of. JMO though.

This is a good idea bro. The last time I had the same thing happen and someone suggested this to me. I do it now everytime and never have a leakage problem.

It's like a gas tank, dude. You're full.

You asked y. this is my theory and if i'm wrong then you guys should please tell me. When you're on cycle your muscles become harder and less flexable or suple... so when you stick the pin in you create an opening, this opening will close slower as the muscle gets harder. having an alcohol swab ready and massaging it immediately after you pull out will let the hole close fast and you will have no problem.

I've read that method. It sounds effective but I haven't needed to try it.

I noticed that happening too, so I just leave the pin in about 10-20 seconds like stated above. Then just pull it out, and put pressure with a wipe on there. Nothing will be lost.
