    Is using a 25 gauge 1 inch needle big enough to ensure it is going deep enough? It seemed to but I dont really have anything to compare it to.

    Some of us are using 30 & 31gauge 5/16" needle in the quad. Takes about a minute to get the test oil loaded. You can just read this forum while it's loading and it's not a problem.

    Anyone know if they make 27G in 1"? Or for those who do an IM protocol with 27G or above, do you use the 1/2" needles? Wouldn't those be too short to reach the muscle?

    Hate to be redundant brother, but are you using that gauge and length IM? I use that size for my HCG in love handles or close to belly. In paramedic school (long time ago) SQ was taught to go at 45 degree angle wit beveled side up. How do you do IM and SQ? I currently use 25 g 1 inch for my quad IM injection (E5D 100mg) and HCG SQ 30 g 5/8 (250 every Wed and Sat) waiting for labs now.

    My clinic gave me 25g 5/8" for IM in the glute. Is that too short? I stick it in all the way.
