Pinning HCG the same as oils?

Hey fellas, just a quick question for you.
Having never cycled before I was wondering how much different shooting oils is opposed to shooting HCG is?
Obviously the same method is used, but does it feel any different? I just pinned 1500iu of HCG into my glute, with a 1.5", 23g, 3ml syringe and it was a piece of cake (once I built to courage up to do it

).
No pain, no nothing.

Id expect the injection to take a little longer with an oil as its thicker, but apart from that, is it pretty much the same?

Also, Air in the syringe is not want you want, but how do you get it all out?
As I drew the solution up the needle air got in. I turned the needle upside down and flicked the syringe heaps and squeezed all the air out. I did notice however, some small bubbles on the plunger. No matter how hard I tried, I couldnt get rid of them.
I shot anyway, because I thought the small bubble would not make it to the tip.....

Any tips for a first timer?

you'll never get all the air out, as much as possible though. getting a little bit of air in the shot wont kill you. you will notice when you draw back on the plunger it will sometimes actually pull a little bit of air into it. how can it hurt if its already there?

You can shot hcg sub q with insulin syringes which is most common. What gauge syringe did you use and how many cc. It seems that slin pins are not long enough for glutes. AAS will be a bit different. Don't worry about tiny bubbles just get most out.

Yeah dont worry about tiny bubbles they wont matter. I have heard it depends on the person and where you do it.

nurse told me even in the vein that tiny bubbles wont hurt you.

Sweet, thats put me at ease, thanks fellas

.

I shot right glute IM with a 23g, 1.5" long needle. The syringe was 3ml in volume.
No air came into the syringe when I pulled back on the pluger, but then again the plunger didnt move at all when I tried to draw it back. I took this as a sign as I missed any veins and was good to go.
Correct?

Ill be shooting 1500iu 3 x a week for the next 4 weeks.

Ill be looking at cycling later in this year if my labs dont improve, or my labs become normal very easily with the use of HCG . Just wondering what to expect.
