Changing the site of injections

[IamNotShepard]

Hello. I've got two questions. Quite long, so brace yourselves.

1. I am doing injections EOD (30mg) of testosterone cypionate. I am injecting into my quad. I am using either my left leg or right leg. Now, is it necessary to do? Or should i just stick with one leg and don't switch them each injection?

2. I have a question about my injection process - it looks like this - my testosterone comes in vials, so i gotta store my testosterone in syringes. But, beyond that, after i am opening a vial and using all testosterone that's inside, i don't throw it away. I keep it for another injection because very often i have excess of testosterone in a syringe, like 80mg or something. So, i am using a vial from previous injection (which i am keeping for 2 days) to push testosterone there and then draw it with another syringe. And i am doing the same thing with the next vial. It seems like the most sanitary thing to do for me and i am not wasting anything. Is that correct, though?

Thanks y'all for opinions

I rotate my injection sites every time. Everyone has their own way of doing things.

As for storing T in syringes and then returning it to the vial...why? I have never heard of this and would think it is not a good idea to do.

Just draw up what you need at the time of injection. Maybe I am missing something here?

I've been doing this for quite a while now. Why this isn't a good idea? Thanks.

EDIT

I made a mistake, i am not using vials but ampoules. So, yeah. After i opened and draw the testosterone from an ampoule I don't throw it away. I just keep it (for 2 days) for the next injection and then i use that previously used ampoule to push there the excess of testosterone that i have in a syringe and after that i am using another syringe to draw the testosterone that i pushed into that ampoule. And i repeat the same process with another ampoule. Just was wondering if that is all right. I've been doing it for months now.

I definitely would rotate injection sites, I like to the inject in my shoulders and VG.
Best Injection site, no aspiration needed, avoids all nerves
I've never used ampoules, plus I've never saved testosterone in syringes, other members have, hopefully they will chime.

Draw your Test from the amp's according to the dose you need just use multiple syringes, don't reuse the amp just store the correct dose across multiple syringes. Make sense?

Rotating injection sites is good advice though with sub q or IM injections there really is very little chance of scar tissue developing from use of the same area repeatedly. I tend to go between L and R thigh but I take it as guidance or a suggestion and not as rule.

Is the way i do it dangerous or anything like that?

You could have a sterility problem, yes.

Never had a problem with it but maybe its best to be on the safe side. Also timing of my injections would be better. I'd just remove all the air from all syringes in one sitting, so they would be instantly ready to go. But if i would draw testosterone to multiple syringes, some of them would be sitting in a closet for like 10 days. Is there a time limit for testosterone being stored in a syringe or no?

I think 10 days is fine. I usually draw up what I need for a weeks time over multiple syringes so that they're ready for me each day.
