    Warming your Steroid Shots?

    I started filing my sink with hot water as hot as mine comes out. I fill it about 2 inches and I let my Test Cyp sit in it while I'm getting my needle and alcohol and stuff ready for my shot. I sometimes leave it a while and I'll sit on the throne or whatever.

    It is by far easier to fill and dispense even after it is out of the water long enough to fill my needle, clean my bootay and then you know do the deed.

    Been doing it for years but I'm on HRT and I've had a few like I'm pushing on a rock and I'm like forget this im not breaking a needle off or digging around.(did that wow it didn't hurt till later but yeah it was bad) I used my quads a few times and trust me I watched many videos but quit after a huge blood geyser. So much blood pooled by my knee I would kill the wind for blowing on it but it didn't hurt to walk.

    So anyway does anyone heat their Winstrol or Deca or whatever you use? I can't see why it would be an issue for any to be heated. Think the Winstrol would benefit the most right?

    Post your thoughts on this please!

    What is your reason for warming it up everytime? Do you experience Pip? I don't heat mine but know some others do. I would only heat mine up if it was crashing or if the pip was that bad I would cut it with gso.

    Warming really does not make much of a difference in my opinion, and the bathroom is not a sterile environment.
    Handel less and preserve sterility.

    Agreed but I'm not sure where else to do it. Thankfully I have had no issues in near 3 years.

    I guess since I have been heating it or warming it the injection pump is much smoother and I don't have to push so hard. Not sure how the viscosity of Cyp is to others.

    I put my TEST-E vial on the heating element in my room for 15 minutes. The oil was like body temperature after this.

    It was my first shot ever so i don't have any idea about how effective this is, but i clearly does make it a little thinner.

    I found no difference, I'd only warm it if it was much colder then room temp.

    I've never ever needed to heat a vial up. If that's what works for you then go with it.

    oil gets thinner as temp rises- heating will definately help.

    this concept is well known not only in the steroid world, but also in engineering circles- so if it works for you , keep it up- make sure you clean the vials membrane before drawing and you will have no issues.

    I usually take the spike in the kitchen & warm it over a stove until relatively hot every time.

    Seems to reduce PIP for me & makes the shot go much quicker.

    To each is own though - some guys never heat their gear.

    It may have a scientific backing but I still think it's a waste of time. Just don't be so impatient. Slow and steady push is what you want anyway.

    ^^^ 60s per cc is ideal... This should cut down on pip for sure... Slow and steady hands/& relax that muscle...

    or use a 20g needle.. that will make it go in smooth ... (jk, don't use a 20g)

    I heat mine, then after the oil is heated, remove and replace with a new pin..

    Works great and I can use a much smaller gauge needle, thus less scar tissue..

    i heat mine too, i felt a difference in pip and you can draw it faster and if you use lots of gear this helps the speed.

    A friend of mine, steroid user and doctor told me once it wasn't good to warm as the preparation might be altered, for good reason there is a warning " keep in a cold and dry place".

    I believe that's more for storage of AAS... I personally don't heat mine but will bring it to room temp w/my hands...

    Funny though "friend doctor and steroid user" LOL

    I wrap my filled syringe in my electric heating pad, for a minute, before injecting. I don't like the idea of repeatedly heating and cooling my vials...

    Lol I meant he told me that in particular for esteroids and in general for medicines, he said even alcohol could alter the active ingredients, better to shoot right after shower, when clean, no need to desinfect :-)

    I point the wife's hairdryer at the vial while I brush my teeth. By then, the vial is nice and warm and that makes my .25ml draw into a 31g 5/16" .3ml insulin syringe piece of cake. Subq shot from that can't even be felt, And not a drop of blood 99% of the time. Wouldn't do it any other way.

    I do the hairdryer/boiling water because I always draw/shoot with a 28g insulin needle to minimize scartissue. Juice is supposed to be fine until 250F at least; from what I have heard.

    The only gear I've heated, is my tren enathate bottles when the Tren has crystallised at the bottom of the vial.

    You can do this with no problem. It will help pass thru the pins smooth and easy. It can really help with things
    like TEST SUSP and WINSTROL which sometimes clogs finer gauge pins.

    Coming Monday ill do this:

    Suck up 1ml of test in a syringe, put a 25g needle with its cap on there. I'll put this set-up in a sealed back. And hold this under a hot tap until i think the syringe has the right temp.

    Ill let you know if this is a do or dont.

    I have always put the syringe under my armpit for about 8 minutes prior to injecting. It warms it up slightly and def makes the oil go in more smoothly..

    Are you guys using steroids or trying to hatch an egg? I'm surprised no one has said they sit on it and warm it between their ass cheeks.

    Hey Red, I've been implementing your heating pad idea(except I do the vials just to get to room temp) then put the syringe under it like it

    If the steroid molecyles has crystallised at the bottom of the vial, is that possible that you cant see it?
    I mean if the molecyles are so tiny that you cant see them. What you thinks guys?

    Sometimes I run the loaded syringe barrel only under hot water but you must not get the needle wet. I only do it to make it come out faster when I do.

    Other times I dont even take down my pants. I just jab it through my blue jeans into my glute, yelling "YOU DESERVE IT YA' SCRAWNY PUSS"
