Calculation confusion.... Please advise!

Mixed 10ml of bacteriostatic water to 5000iu of hCG. I am needing to pin 250iu.

If I am using an insulin syringe marked up to 50 units, how many units equals 250iu based on the concentration I described above?

Thanks all!

.5ml or 50 units is 250iu

Thanks for the help bro!!!!! I've been giving myself .5 units for the last week thinking that was .5ml --- Whoops!

I'm glad I've got it straight now.

Ya, you mixed a bit more water than I prefer. I personally use 2ml of water so that I only have to inject 10 units to get 250iu.

Mixing like I did doesn't affect the efficacy of the hCG though does it?

So if I mixed it with 5ml of bac water then I would use only have to dose 25 units to get the 250iu?

Nope, not at all, your good to go. Just inject fairly slowly so you don't get a lump assuming your injecting sub-Q.

Correct

Thanks for all the help man. What I think I might do is inject 25 units on one side of belly and 25 units on the other just to be absolutely sure I don't get a lump under the skin.

Sound good?

Since water based, you should be fine with the 50 units in one location, just go slower than normal. Many inject up to .5ml of test sub-Q, any more than that is when you start having issues.

Sometimes I get lazy and shoot fast. Looks a little weird but it goes down fast.
