To many blood thinners such as aspirin?
What are you using?
Are you taking any other medications that thin the blood?
Are you aspirating before injecting. Maybe you're nicking a vein.
Some people just bleed more then others.
Your shoulders could be getting a little inflamed from injecting into them so much. Every time you pin your shoulder there after the blood near the surface flows out. Thats why if you aspirate you dont get blood in the plunger but you have a blood fountain when you pull the pin out.
You are switching injection spots every time right? I asume you are injecting into your middle deltoid muscle head, how often do you inject into your inner and outer deltoid muscle heads?
I do switch areas and as far aspirating I di draw back till I see a small air bubble sometimes but no blood maybe go to the gliutes for a break...I am not taking any meds....strange
The oil may give the illusion of more blood. You may be losing a tiny amount of oil, but with blood it looks more. I got a bleed from my glute last week, and it looked horrid, but it felt oily, so it was blood and oil. A little bit of blood goes a long way in water or oil.
It wasn't much of a loss of oil, but sure seemed that way.
Use glutes, quads as well. Thats another 4 sites.
How many cc's are you injecting? if too much, you may need the larger muscle groups, and a longer pin.

You can also do the trick where you stretch the skin before injecting, make it taunt and then when you pull out the injection site is no longer aligned and it sort of is self sealing.
