    Does HCG hurt to inject?

    Ok got my HCG today, last two weeks of my cycle, so i decided to shoot 1000iu HCG/week.

    Used 23g 1.5" needle to glute, needle went in fine, no pain, but then as i was injecting it hurt like ****. Pulled needle out, changed needle. Changed to other glute. Same thing happened again, no pain to go in, but pain as i was injecting the HCG.

    Is this the norm?

    I was shooting IM, with bacteriostatic water. My concentration is at 2500iu per ml, that way i shoot less. Plus all i got was 2mL of bacteriostatic water.

    Hmm maybe i should should sub-Q? how do i do that? pinch the fat upwards n with insulin needle shoot the bottom into the gap in middle of pinch?

    which one is more effective?

    could it be because i didnt warm it up after i took it out of the fridge?

    I pinned HCG 250mg twice a week during my cycle. Mixed it with BW and injected subq. Felt nothing.

    You should be using slin pins sub-Q.

    You shoudn't be feeling anything.

    Clold or warm.

    Yes, pinch your skin and inject.

    Check my blog on dividing doses on slin pins if you need help.

    it must be what youre mixing the HCG with. i always mix it with the vial of water it comes with. which i think has a very high BA content. so ya, it hurts like hell. i just try and inject really slow.

    ive never shot HCG subQ. it says on the vial specifically, that it is for IM use. so i just stick to that.

    Ive never felt anypain from a cold injectable.....

    But, when injecting HCG mixed with bacteriostatic IM, it does feel like a very weak bee sting. At least to me.

    But, I get no pain when injecting GH SubQ with the same water? Maybe the HCG?

    Everyone reacts differently. I don't doubt you, just never heard of it. I have no problem with injections of cold GH. I can feel that it's cold, but no pain.

    yeh it felt like a weak bee sting, it only hurt during injection, while i was putting pressure on the plunger, i didnt hurt after at all.

    Yeh i mixed it with the water it came with, which was a BS vial, 2ml.

    Was it because of the concentration? at 2500ui/ml,

    Is there a difference in absorption quality if i shoot HCG subq or IM?, which is better. If it doesnt matte for HCG, i can see it being more comfortable shooting subQ.

    I know roids are shot IM, and thats how i shoot too, but i was just asking why that was the case? like what will test not get absorbed if shot subQ?

    My HGC also says that it's for IM use. I use it sub q and it works fine, no problem.

    I found it to sting a bit myself but I was using the solvent to re-constitute it which is likely the cause.
