29 1/2 for IM

[NewToThis60]

I’m not super lean but I’m not overweight or anything. Is 29ga 1/2 needle enough for IM in the thigh or should I use a 1inch?

Yes, it's long enough for a shallow IM. That's what I use.

*You can get away with injecting shallow IM using a 1/2" or even 5/8" needle but again it depends on where you are injecting and how much adipose tissue.

What needle length for IM TRT? Thinking of changing from subQ to IM to feel better - Page 2 - ExcelMale - #1 TRT & Testosterone Forum | Expert-Moderated Men's Health Community

I've been doing subcutaneous injections daily for a while but don't feel that good with them. I've tried all sorts of dosages from 100mg/week to 200mg/week, but I still experience lots of brain fog, not much energy or motivation... Some people claim they get higher levels on IM...

If you ever tried both IM and SQ, going into muscle, there more resistance than like when going into fat.

I’m with Vince….if you are not too “thick” 1/2 inch is fine for quad and deltoid….
