HCG Mixture ... Help, been reading for hours FML

[992Envy]

Before anyone flames me ... I've been reading for hours and lets just say I'm not the best @ math breaking this down and converting or it's just to late and it got the best of me ...

I have 5000iu HCG, mixing in 1ml solution. This would give me 5000iu per 1 ml ...

I have 1/2cc insulin syringe with marking 5 through 50. I want to take a 250iu HCG shot.

With my current calculation would this be the marking .5 on my insulin pin? Please help with all this confusion.

Thank you!!

What's preferred injection volume mean?

If I add 2ml sodium chloride to 5000ml would that be 10 on my 1/2cc insulin needle? Man sorry for the confusion this evening.

You need bacteriostatic water so the mixture lasts for up to 2 months.

Add 5ml to the 5000 ui so you get 1000 per ml. It is easier for calculating the desired dose.

You will probably need bigger empty vial with rubber top.

I understand, I already mixed 2ml of bac water and loaded into sterile empty vial with rubber top ...

My question NOW is on my 1/2cc insulin PIN numbered 5 - 50 with in incitements of 5, where do I need to be for 250iu HCG? Is 10 the correct answer?

Yes, 10 is the correct answer.
