I used the 1½" needle for my first injection of Test E today, in my left shoulder.
(I only use my delts, they just feel right):lol:
Anyways, I went all the way in with the needle - I used to use 1" needles, but I got $2 off on these. So they basically cost me nothing haha.
So what is a proper length to go in? Should I leave a little of the needle out from the injection site, or should the entire 1½ length be used.
:wg:
For delts 1" So only go in about 3/4 of the way with a 1 1/2.
1 and 1/2 INCH !!! IN YOUR DELTS !?!?!? THAT'S INSANE .... YOU MUST HAVE SOME MONSTER DELTS !!!!!Quote:

...cmon haha
I dont know about you but my hand is not steady enough to go in only 2/3 of the way and hold it there while injecting. the full inch and a half would end up all the way in. Just buy the proper needles. 3/4 - 1 inch for delts. needles are dirt cheap and it will make your life easier.
If it were me i would just get a pair of snips and cut off half an inch.
:2jk:
all I use is 1.5's. Use as much of it as you need to. Long as your in muscle your good. No-one ever designed a certain length needle for different injections, this is where you skills come into play after so many pins
for delts I use 1" AND STICK it in all the way.Quote:

Either way, I'll try it out with keeping a bit of needle out for the injection (as I have before I believe) and if that doesn't feel right, i'll head back to the 1" pins.
ah-thank ya
What if it went too deep?
My shoulder has felt real weird since Monday 12pm (pinning time). Like a big bruise that is constantly uncomfortable. Now Wednesday, still uncomfortable.
Clean gear, alcohol wiped down, 2 different needles (to pull and push) and it CLEARLY went deep enough.
I just wonder why it is so damn uncomfortable. Went through the muscle probs...
I doubt you went too deep... maybe just deeper than youre used to, which is causing the discomfort. Just do what everyone else said and only put the dart in partially.Quote:

I always find it awkward when using my opposite hand for jabs like delts and glutes eg: left delt/ left glute
yeah it's just bruising, it's gotta be ;)
the only downside to leaving a bit of needle out - is paranoia setting in, that I left too MUCH out and I fear getting an abscess.
/sigh
I'll prob just go with AL's piece of advice, 1" all the way.
Well at least that way m8 you cant go wrong, hey? :wg:Quote:
