    HCG Injections?

    Trying to find out about HCG injections:

    Where is the best place to pin on the body?

    I hear some people on forums say a subQ injection in the abdominal area into the tissue above the abs is a painless place to pin?

    Can an isulin needle be used for this?

    Lets say i was pinning prop eod and the HCG 2 x week that would be alot of pinning for muscle groups, hence why i ask about easy subQ injections!

    Thanks

    subQ with an isulin pin 2inches out left or right of your navel at a 45 Degree angle . It is very easy and painless nothing to it.

    Doesn't matter. You can inject it intradermally even and it will still work. slins are 1/2 inch.

    Interesting, is there any chance of hitting some type of blood vessels or something going half and inch under the skin?

    I get creeped out thinking i might hit something with the needle tip??

    Generally very small vessels/capillaries in that area. I've hit a few over two years of GH use. Small edema, hematoma, and contusion possible but rarely anything of concern.

    Doesn't matter, just inject it. Yes, insulin needles work. Pin it with your prop if you feel it's too many injections.

    Oh so you mean I could draw it up into a regular needle with my test and inject the whole lot together?

    What volume in millilitres would 250IUS of Hcg come too?

    Sure. The volume in ML's is however you have it concentrated. If your hCG is done at 1000 IU per ML, then 0.25 ML is 250 IU.

    There's a chance of hitting a vein even 1/4 inch under skin. And even MUCH less than that. That's why we aspirate.

    For math's sake... if you have a 5000 IU vial, you would transfer 5 ML's of bA water, preferably 3 ML then 2 ML, so not all at once. Swirl gently and put it in the fridge. Now you have a 5000 IU vial that gives you 1000 IU per ML.

    That's it. Obviously less water if you want it concentrated more per ML for smaller injection volume.

    I pin hcg into my abdominal fat, pinch an inch and inject at a 45 degree angle like someone above said. You can aspirate it too if youre really worried (i do, only takes a sec) but there are very few veins in the fat layer and accidentally injecting a water based drug into a vein is a lot less dangerous than an oil one because the oil has a chance of forming an embolism whereas the water doesnt. When pinning into the abs stay above the hips and away from the navel area as there are more blood vessels there.

    For mixing, i'm assuming you've got your HCG in 5000iu amounts, either premixed in 1mL of bac stat water if its from hucog or as a powder if not. Either way you need to dilute it further. To do this you'll need:

    - Bacteriostatic water
    - Sterile vials (like your test comes in with the rubber tops)
    - 1mL / 100iu insulin needles

    If your HCG is already in 1mL of water simply use a syringe to draw it out and add it to a sterile vial, then add an amount of bac stat water to dilute it to the desired amount. I dilute to 1000iu/mL so 5mL in total, this makes my 2x week pins 250ul (or 25iu on a slin needle) which is a nice amount. If your HCG is in powder form you need to reconstitute it first, to do this simply add 1mL of bac stat water to the powder. You want to inject the water onto the side of the vial and then gently turn the vial to mix and dissolve the powder, HCG has a tendency to foam if you mix it at all violently and you want to avoid that. Then once reconstituted do the same as with the pre dissolved stuff.

    Make sure you keep your HCG in the fridge when not in use and only prepare 5000iu at a time because even in the fridge it will eventually degrade (it's just a peptide and will break down into individual amino acids eventually). To test whether your HCG is 'fresh' you get get a pregnancy test and put a dab of it on there, it'll come up pregnant if there's active HCG.

    There's no reason to aspirate subQ, I was referencing IM injections.

    Correct! Most vessels are so small that you likely wouldn't draw much/any blood during aspiration. As I mentioned above, I've caused a few small hematomas in the past. Other than looking like a really bad bruise with a hardened core (hemolyzed blood or a small hematoma), its rarely a problem to be worried about.

    What about intracavernous? Should I aspirate before a Trimix injection?

    Good times. Give it a shot (intended), you won't recognize your member after that. It suddenly has a visible pulse.

    there's no reason to no, but there's also no reason not to either if injecting in general stresses you out and you find it reassuring.
