    Need help with HCG

    I have one amp with 5000iu of HCG of powder, which I am keeping refridgerated. It says for IM or subcutaneous injection, which one is recommended? I also have 1 mL of "Solvens", which I guess would be mixed with the HCG powder.

    Obviously I dont want to take 5000iu at once, how can I divide it up? What is the proper sterile way to combine both these substances? I want to take about 500iu 2x 5 days apart.

    Also, how long does the solution last after reconsitution, even with refridgeration?

    you are going to reconstitute it all at once. from there, you can move it into slin pins or a multi-use vial (i used to like new or used gh vials) and store in fridge for no longer than 6 weeks. IM vs. Subq...just depends what is easier for you. subq was usually more convenient for me

    Can you use BW to reconstitue?
    If so whats the "normal"ratio of BW to use?

    Thanks,

    Would it be ok to use 23G pins with IM injection? Then I will inject 1/10mL to get 500iu? Haha Also, can I store it in a syringe (with the end closed)?

    just fine, but slin pins do make the measurements a lot easier

    Thanks bro. My plan is to pop open both amps, dump the contents into a sterile syringe and then put the plunger back in and put it in the fridge. Then take the plunger out and draw up 1/10mL with another needle and syringe and then inject. What guage and length is recommended from subcutaneous?

    It is really hard to measure 1/10 mL with a 3cc syringe. Hell, about that much is lost because it can't be pushed out. It would be really good if you could get some insulin syringes. If you state allows syringes without a prescription then you can get them very cheap at probably every pharmacy.

    True. My main needle/syringe source sells in boxes of 100 so I didnt want to by 100 slin syringes, haha
