HCG injection hurt as hell?

[Sayan Dey]

I injected 500iu hcg in 0.5ml using 8mm insulin niddle in right upper abdomen. HCG injection hurt like burning with flame when pushing the liquid not when inserting the needle.. but I can inject 2ml intra muscular testosterone using 1 or 1.5 inch needle at gluteal or thigh with no pain at all..
I there any way to inject HCG less painfully?

IM injection

Either IM or deal with it, injecting sub-q has a stinging sensation. Nothing to worry about and you get used to it.

Someone said to me that you're injecting into fat cells, and they're filling and popping which is the stinging feeling. No idea how true this is lol.

I stored HCG it at 5-6 celsius and inject cool liquid, do I need to keep filled syringe in room temperature for 10min?

.no.

Oo I forgot to mention, it came in ampule and I can't find empty vial to store it.. so I bought a cheap 40iu/ml insulin and then I drain the insulin solution and wash twice the vial with bac water, then I store the HCG in that vial. almost no leftover insulin their, if their little bit insulin(not more than 1-2iu) is there any reaction of HCG with Insulin?

Empty sterile vials are very easy to find. Try amazon. That's where I get mine.

There shouldn't be anything in HCG that should cause that much pain. I wonder if your BW is not sterile? I've never had any problems with HCG using sterile equipment.

I agree.....should be a totally painless injection unless something is not clean. I would never put a compound into a vial that another liquid compound had been. Juuuuust never know if there is still a trace amount plus sealed vials are dirt cheap.

Your HCG is old and/or was not properly stored under refrigeration prior to you mixing. Even the lyophilized powder needs to be stored refrigerated. I know from experience. It burns like fire when it's bad!!

This is good to know I was storing the unmixed products at room temp, and after mixing it goes in the fridge. I will keep it all in the fridge from now on.

HCG needs to be stored in refrigerator even before mixing?

my hcg pack from good pharmaceutical brand "sun pharma", on the pack mentioned store at 2 to 8 Celsius not mentioned before or after mixing i think it before mixing because when it is used for tratment it is used 5000iu at once, and from where I bought it from a medicine store they store this poweder in refrigerator

Oo and I also find the cause of pain, it is because cold liquid, i leave 0.5ml solution in injection under room temp for 5 min and then no pain
