Hi guys,

First post here, so hi.. I'm a 37 yr old guy, lost a nut when I was 13 and always felt through my life that there was something not quite right.. Anyway.. Its taken a while and after a few blood panels Im finally doing something about it. Anyway I have a question on HCG protocol, mixing and storage.

The HCG I have is 2 ampules. 1 Bacteriostatic water and 1 - 5000IU of HCG. Great
Every video I have watched the water is drawn and mixed in the vial of HCG, but I need to crack the ampules so I wont have something to put them in like the videos. Do I need a sterile 10ml vial to put the mix in? Thats the 1st question.

Next is, my protocol is going to be 250 IU's twice a week, same day as test injection. I have 5000IU's so that means I will have 10 weeks of HCG. So how long will it last in the fridge? If it wont last 10 weeks then what do you guys do to split the HCG into enough fresh batches to last 10 weeks.

Any advice would be great!! :)
 
Yes you can buy a strile 10mL vial, I think those can be found on Ebay, and your HCG will last, refrigerated, well past your scheduled 10 weeks.
 
Thanks mate,

I just purchased some sterile vials.. So best thing to do would be to mix it up and refrigerate it all? It doesnt need to be warmed before injecting does it, as its aqueous?!

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
