HCG - How important is it?

[Chevroletstud]

I think I messed up....i mixed a 5000iu am with 2.5 ml of bac water and injected .125 ius. I thought that was 250ius. Yes or no?

So I got my HCG and order just came from AR-R yest. Very timely might I add.

Ok so if I mix 5000 IU's of HCG with 10ml Bac. Water into a sterile vial....is the 50 mark on the insulin syringe going to be 250 IU's and the 100 on the syringe would be 500 IU's?

that is what I am getting from reading swifto's thread on it...but i need to make sure im understanding this right.

I also wanted to know when its best to inject the HCG. should i just do it on my days that I do the test...[mon/thurs] and does it matter what time of day. and how long will this let me run the hcg for? i think i have enough for about 8 weeks

please advise

What Swifto suggests is fine, however I opted to go with Jelly's math (see post 468) as it does seem to be simplest (and i'm a simpleton, so I need that).

It doesn't really matter when you inject - day, or time of day. That said, if you're injecting your test on Monday and Thursday, you might as well do the HCG those days as well - get everything done in one shot (no pun). I'd find it annoying to have to think too much ... like... ok, test is Monday/Thurs, HCG is Tues/Fri... etc...

That is what I figured too..might as well just have two shot days for all of it. ok so let me see if i understand this correctly...if I want to use jellys math and use the 5mls of water...and i want to do 250 iu's on mon/thurs....i would draw up to the 25 mark each time?? that just seems like a lot to be injecting...i just want to make sure i am not screwing this up.
