HCG: SubQ or Intramuscular?

Hi,

Few weeks ago i added HCG to my protocol. I am injecting testosterone daily + HCG twice a week (500 iu) which i am injecting subq (into belly fat). How most of you guys inject HCG? SubQ or IM? Is there a BIG difference?

Thanks.

SubQ.

Hi,

I am injecting 500iu of HCG subQ in my belly fat. I am pretty much using the shortest needle possible. 30G 8mm (5/16 inch). Is that okay or should it be a little bit longer?

Thanks.

That’s perfectly fine. Getting a needle into the subcutaneous space doesn’t require much length.

Thanks :slight_smile:

Actually, 6 mm needles are common (for injecting insulin, for example). I have used both 6 mm and 8 mm. 6mm is very short.

Hi, guys.

Unfortunately i just learned that in my country - HCG powder comes only with NaCl sterile water. There’s no way to get bacteriostatic water where i live. The question is - how do i get around it if i only use 500 iu HCG 2x a week? It takes me 6 weeks to use whole vial. Anyone knows how much potency does it lose if it sits in a fridge for so long? Is freezing insulin syringes with HCG in my sitatuion a good idea?

Thanks! :slight_smile:
