HCG injection pain and muscle spasms

[Krohn744]

I have injected HCG mixed with Bact. water before and little to no pain, but this time around its very painful.

I mixed 10ml of "Sterile Water for Injection" with 5000iu Pregnyl Darou Pakhsh brand. I keep it in the fridge and I let the dose warm up before injection. I am injecting .5mL bi-weekly.
I first tried in in my delts, but when I plunge i get a sharp pain and my muscle begins to spasm and pain slowly went away after 5 min. I then tried subQ half inch from belly button and it felt like a hot knife in that area for 1 minute. Then I went in my quad, which helped alittle, but this last shot was the worse, my whole vastus lateralis started spasming for 2 minutes and was alittle sore for 15 minutes.



Any thoughts? possibly the water? I have never tried this brand of HCG.

Are you mostly just talking about the initial pain when you penetrate the skin or just after injecting?

[Krohn744]

No pain when I penetrate (29g), its half second after solution enters muscle, the entire injection, and slowly goes away after 5min. Alittle soreness for 10-15min.

Is this home brewed bac water? If it is the benzyl alcohol content sounds like its too high

[gymsoldier]

Sterile Water for Injection is not necessarily Bac-Water unless it says there's 0.9% BA in it.
I've always felt a "sting" from Sterile Water (no BA) anyway.
And, sounds like you hit a nerve in your quad. No harm done, just hurts!

[measuretwicecutonce]

^agree. nerve. wouldn't hurt to add sum BA to it. don't worry about going into the muscle. it can be injected IM or Sub Q only difference is absorption rate/time. n the difference is small. thats is if ur more comfortable with IM its an option.

some people don't have problems with 6-13% BA depends on the person.

Hcg is to be injected into the fat under the skin and not in the muscle.

[Far from massive]

You can do it either way, I prefer subcutaneous but IM is also acceptable.

I would pin some of the water then if the water is not the problem dump the HCG as its probably pretty poor quality.

Not a nerve.

Hurts worse when subQ

Its not Bact water.
