How To Inject

[RZGP]

I'm still nervous about injecting!

i am too, dont know y ... shots never bother me at the dr, but me doing it/looking at it does

[beauibbotten]

yea wish i new this when i started haha i swear i kept hitting somthing that i wasnt sposed to be hitting

[HellRiserPL]

Thank You for the info, thank god i didn't have nothing to inject yet, that would be a waste of stuff and money although i would check b4 doing it.

[TruRelign]

Awesome post, but still a little sketchy about doing it myself lol. Is it difficult to get the angle right if you're doing it yourself?? Might just be newbie anxiety, but i dunno if id be able to stick myself until i got used to what it felt like lol

Got a couple questions

1.should u be standing up or sitting down when injecting in your butt

2.do u push the needle in all the way to where you cant see the needle anymore? or when you feel it is enough and in the muscle

3.When you inject in your quad, from the picture it looks like you inject in the tear drop part of the quad, no?

sorry for such basic questions, but its difficult finding info on these questions

[blsblaze]

That answers my questions

[jcevans7]

Makes me want to pin myself now! Good post.

[mesotiny]

what if you drew up blood when pulling back the stopper,do you discard the whole thing and start a new one?

If you are injecting in the glute it is easiest to lay on your side (the side your not injecting into) It's also easier to find your landmarks this way. Yes push the needle in all the way. As long as your not a 90 year old gma who weighs 87lbs the length of the needle is designed to inject it into the muscle for proper absorbtion. For the thigh, you want to inject into the outer, middle third of the vastus lateralis muscle.

Anybody heard of the z-track injection method? If so, do you know if it is beneficial at all to use that?

[Chx beach 79]

Honestly... Just find a sweet spot jam it slow and steady in the glute... Aspirate ... Pull it out slowly... And all is good... I have never ever had a issue... If you have any problems check out intramuscular injections on YouTube... Good luck!

Good stuff, switching my pin site from leg to butt lol

[Antoinefan]

i used a 23 1" in my glute. injected 250mg of test e. im pretty sore and its only been about 12 hours. maybe i injected te oil too fast ? what will help the pip ?

[hell911]

is it okay to inject on right leg for the whole 8 week cycle?

[austinite]

^ No.

[600@50]

is it okay to inject on right leg for the whole 8 week cycle?

Not a good idea man. But why would you want to do this anyway?

[hell911]

^

^
i think if i inject on one part only, i can get used to that technique (injecting on specific part), or maybe pain if there will be.

but im not sure if it is safe.

thanks for answering my question, didnt got any answer in the other topic.

[MistaHaze]

Awesome post!

[inklife]

Thanks

[inklife]

Tried to asperate but the plumber was like a suction once it was in my delt pulled back still and didn't see any blood so I figured it was good to go?

[Connectorhector]

[Ducksfan]

Another great read.

Another thread, OMG. Oh well.
Should you be standing or this and that. In the docs office your prob standing, in the hospital bed for IM injection you in bed so you turn over a little, or you push you but up. So a little common sense. If you can stick your glute and get it in straight into you body That's it, Hello ? this is no different from that. AS long as you can get to it.

How far in. Well as ws said, A little common sense Huh. If you 98-105 lbs. Then with a 1-1/2" you don't want to go in to hit bone, huh. If you have some meat it is 1" or 1-1/2" long for a reason and that to get the compound in and deep. So there is no mark on the needle, STICK IT IN, ALL THE WAY.

What location, look at the pics you can pull up and see. Common sense, do you remember where, or close to where you had a shot in your A$$. Now have you seen a nurse or doc measure, ever?

If you need all this info to such detail you shouldn't do this without proper supervision or an on site teacher.
With oil or water base you can use 23 x 1" or 22 x 1-1/2. With water you can use a 25 x 1', but not a 5/8" long. FYI, I have used 22, 23, 25 with both oil and water. But 23 is kinda the general practice I believe.

AGAIN THIS IS NOT ROCKET SCIENCE. ...crazy mike suggest you read more


PS OP did you not read the many, too many threads about aspirating. Common sense, hello. When has your nurse or doc ever, ever aspirated when sticking your a$$

[Relpur]

Really good post- thanks for posting and those who gave input. Very helpful!

[HAYN STYLE]

I learn a lot on these threads an like they say do your home work!!
Now jus gotta find some hcg ..lol..

[thehor]

Should add this to stickies!

[BunkerPunk]

Great post, I favored the delt during my first 2 runs, but almost assuredly I'll have my RN wife pin my glute on the next run.

[DuggyPhresh]

Great level of detail. These are exactly the types of threads I've been looking for. I'm not scared of needles but I use a 22gage for filling my e-cig and it seems pretty gnarly to me haha

[orbitz21]

great post

[dickster]

Thanks good info.
