HCG injection
Can anyone confirm what 250iu is on an insulin syringe? From the stickies on how much to inject it says:
https://forums.steroid.com/hormone-r...ould-know.html
"When using an insulin syringe, each unit (line) on the scale of the syringe equals 25IU's of hCG . 250IU’s of hCG is then 10 units on the side of the insulin syringe."
So I'm reading this as the 20 mark on the syringe when I add up each line(25iu) to get up to 250iu
But in this HCG injection video its showing up to the 25 mark on the syringe (1/4) for 250iu

Also... Does syringe length and gauge matter for HCG? I'm currently using a 1ml insulin syringe, 6mm length, 31g
Thanks!Last edited by jjsevens; 05-09-2022 at 06:56 PM.

How many units you have in the vial and how much water you add to it. Those are the two variables you need. It is basic ratios after that.
Exapmle: 5000 iu hcg with 2 ml water gives you 2500iu hcg per ml.
Do not confuse iu of hcg with iu of reconstituted solution. This is where people get lost.
Anyhow, in this example 1ml = 2500 iu hcg. 1/10ml gives you 250iu hcg per dose. Multiply or divide as appropriate in your case.
-
In other words, what is considered 250iu of hcg all depends on the ratio of water to hcg. There is no clear answer without knowing those two variables.

Nope that's 1 ml sodium chloride. Says it on the label.
There are 3 loves in my life: my wife, my English mastiffs, and my weightlifting....Man, my wife gets really pissed when I get the 3 confused...

If you mix them together and pull all the liquid into a needle... you will see how many mil it is. The whole liquid is 5000 IU, half of it is 2500 IU and so on. You have to use a little 3rd grade math. If you have 1 mil, then 01 is 500 IU. 250 IU is so small its kinda hard to measure it
If you split the liquid in half ; Then 1/10 of the half is 250 IU if that makes senceLast edited by s1nc1ty; 05-10-2022 at 05:36 AM.

I don't think I'm being clear. Let's work with your particular numbers.
Looks like you have 5000iu hcg and 1 ml water.
If you put that 1 ml water with the 5000iu hcg, you will have a vial with 1ml water in it, and that water will have 5000iu of hcg in it.
Let's consider kool-aid for a minute. If you have 10 ounces of water, and then you add 2 ounces of Kool aid, you don't magically have 12 ounces. You still have 10 ounces of water that is blended with 2 ounces of kool-aid.
If you wanted to consume 1 ounce of kool-aid, you could say, hmm I know there are two ounces in there, so how much do I need to pull out?
1 ounce / 2 ounces total = 1/2
You need half the container
One half of 10 is 5, so you could drink 5 ounces of the (reconstituted) mixture and know that you are getting 1 ounce of kool-aid.
You have 5000iu and 1 ml. You want a dose of 250iu per shot, so,
250/5000 = 25 / 500 = 5 / 100
We know that there are 100 units in 1 ml. We also know from that last math that 250iu dose needs 5 hundredths of the total hcg. The total hcg is in 1 ml of water, so we know we need 5 hundredths of an ml aka 5 units of solution.
For a 250 dose, with the math above, draw to the 05 mark.
Yes that is a tiny amount and difficult with a 1 ml syringe. Get some .3 ml syringes and life gets easy.

Thanks man, I'm math retarded so I literally needed that spelled out lol!
So looks like I was taking WAY too much, basically 500iu every mon-wed-fri :/
Last question on the syringe, what about the needle length and gauge? There are so many different sizes, why so many different kinds, is it just preference?Last edited by jjsevens; 05-10-2022 at 04:22 PM.

Lots of different kinds because the vendors saw a marketing opportunity!
Only (mostly) kidding there. I think it does come down to preference and compound.
Pretty much all water based substances (hcg , hgh, peps), I use a 30g 8mm pin. I have used 6mm as well and it works for me. You don't need a harpoon to pass water.
I DO like the previously mentioned .30ml syringes, some of these have half unit markings. That is probably more precise than we typically need, but can be a nice touch when trying to dial in a particular pep.
Something like the link below, though I haven't used that particular brand. I like BD and Brandzig, but that is usually just preference.

Cyclon pretty much covered it, but I’ll just add that a good way to make it easier to measure units is to add more bac water. I don’t mix my HCG in anything less than 5 mL.
My HCG has come in both liquid and powdered form. If it’s a 5,000 IU bottle and it comes with 1 mL of water or is already mixed in water, then I’d add 4 mL of water to make it 5 mL total.
At 5000 units / 5 mL, that’s 1000 units per mL. This makes it easy because each .10 mL on the 1 mL syringe is 100 units. I usually go to the .4 mark to get 400 units.

This is a good way to keep the math easy. Working with a 10 to 1 ratio or 100 to 1 or even 1000 to 1 is easier than working with some crazy number like 187 to 2.77. That last is a made up number, but it illustrates the point.
As an example, I like a blend of BPC-157 and TB-500, that is 3mg / 7mg.... That makes things more confusing, because now there are TWO ratios to try to figure out. I keep it simple and solve for one, and let the other fall where it may.
In this case, I think "hmm, dur dee dur, I like boobies. Oh and also, I want to inject 1mg of TB-500 daily in a single shot. What is going to make that easy? And what will my BPC dose be?"
That gives me a couple of pieces of info. First, I want to do one shot with 1mg and some amount of BPC. Since there is 7mg in the vial, I know that I will have 7 shots in the vial.
Using that 10 to 1 ratio above, and knowing I want 7 shots, I add 70iu of bacstat to the vial. That gives me, in the vial, 7mg of TB-500 in 70iu of water. Doing some simple math, that means I need to draw 10iu of solution to get my 1mg dose of TB-500.
-
Oh and to add to that, the BPC-157 calculation is secondary, but easy to solve.
We know there are 3mg of BPC-157 in the vial, and we will be administering 7 shots from the vial. The first step for the math in this case involves converting mgs to mcgs, which is simple:
3mg = 3000mcg
And then it becomes more meaningful to do the math on BPC-157. Simple division gives us:
3000mcg / 7 shots = 428.6 mcg BPC-157 per shot.
Thus each shot of this 7/3 blend gives me 1mg TB-500 and almost 430 mcg of BPC-157.
