Am I dosing my hcg correctly

[paddy155]

If I have a 5000iu amp of hcg and mix it with 5ml of bacteriostatic I have 5000iu of hcg.
My insulin pin is measured 1-100 units (1ml) and if I fill to 25 units this will be 250iu ?

Also,hcg is only good for upto 30 days refridgerated ?

Is their a time limit on bacteriostatic water ?

Your maths is correct but I would just put 2ml into that and then each 10 on the spin pin would be 250 IU

I think you will probably get away with more than 30 days TBH... How long are you planning on keeping it for once re-constitute?

You running it at 250 IU 3x per week?

I now buy 1500's and they last 2 weeks so no worries at all with that.... 5000 are good for the ramp at the end towards the begining of PCT

As far as ur bac water, keep it in a dark cool place and it should be fine

I am running hcg 2 times per week for 12 weeks as swifto's advice. I was planning on using the whole 5ml up if I can get away with it and then mix some more up. Should I not get more by adding the 5ml ?

I have the bact water in the fridge next to the pre mixed hcg. Should I remove ?

Hcg has always been a mind fvck to me lol. Got to be done though.

really ?? you don't like hcg ?? haven't heard that one but everyone is different.. keep the water in or not doesn't matter..

I didn't mean I don't like Hcg mate,it was the mixing to get the correct dose that always confused me.

If you add 5ml of diluent to 5000iu your final mix should be 1000iu of HCG per ml not 5000iu. (5000/5) = 1000

You get 2 vials or amps, 1 has the powdered hcg in it, and the other has a diluent in it(solvent). The diluent is typically bacteriostatic water, or sterile water w/ .09% sodium chloride. ***ending on the brand and version, the package commonly comes w/ enough diluent to make concentrations ranging from 250-10,000iu per ml.

If your package is 5000iu, and you add 1ml diluent, you have 5000iu per ml.
If you add 5ml diluent, you final mix is then 1000iu per ml.
If you add 10ml diluent, then 500iu per ml and so on.

This is simple math, and you don't wanna screw it up, know what dose you are taking!

If your package doesn't include enough diluent to make the concentration you want, you have 2 options to make it easy to accurately measure your doses.

1-buy some insulin syringes, U-100 type. On the graduated markings, the 100iu mark is equal to 1ml, the 50iu is .5ml etc. THIS DOES NOT MEAN IF YOU FILL IT TO THE 100IU MARK THAT YOU ARE TAKING 100IU OF HCG! Iu's are not a measurement of volume or weight, they are a measure of effectiveness for a desired response from specific drugs/compounds. Every compound is different. These are insulin syringes, and they are made for insulin-not hcg. Insulin is the same iu concentration per ml everytime(if its u100 type), hcg is not. Imagine if you made your hcg 10,000iu per ml. if you fill the insulin syringe up to 100iu mark, you now have 10,000iu in there! Not good. You must understand this.
So if you had 5000iu per ml, and wanted to take a 500iu shot, you would inject 10iu on the insulin syringe scale.

2-buy some bacteriostatic water off the internet, its easily found. Simply add more to dilute it to the desired conscentration. Making lower concentrations are easier and more accurately dosed. Then it can accurately be measured w/ a regular syringe.

Mix the two together, they dissolve very easily. Hcg can be very unstable and to make sure to not shake it and let it foam.... Be careful when reconsituting it . Be gentle and run the bac water down the side of the vial not allowing to foam up... Keep things sterile folks. Unused hcg can be refrigerated and is ok to use within 30 days after the initial mixing.

Remember: Store hcg at controlled room temperature (59° to 86°F)(15° to 30°C). After reconstituting store in refrigerator (36° to 46°F) (2° to 8°C).

X83 if hcg is taken at the last 4 weeks of a cycle at 1000iu's per week does one need to take it during PCT?

[X83]

I would not recommend taking HCG during the PCT but it works well two weeks after your last test injection during the time off period.
