HCG mishap

Hey everyone. I’ve been posting quite a bit to get a few lingering questions answered. Well, I’m preparing to inject tonight and I went to get my HCG from the refrigerator only to realize I accidentally swapped my unopened 5ml vial of test with my reconstituted vial of HCG (12,000 IU). So my HCG has been in my medicine cabinet with my opened vial of testosterone since Monday evening. My bathroom stays relatively cold, but obviously not as cold as the HCG should be kept in. I’m wondering if it is okay to proceed with my scheduled HCG injections and to just return the vial to the fridge and carry on as normal? Now I know to double and triple check when putting things away. It’s a careless mistake that should have been avoided, but it’s something to learn from.

You’re absolutely fine. 2 days isn’t that long. It probably won’t last as long as usual, so maybe switch it out a week or so earlier than you would normally, but it’s absolutely fine.
 
I have done that same thing in the past for 24hrs. Never noticed a difference. Just threw it back in the fridge and used it till the end. As long as your room isn't 90 degrees it should have a negligible effect.
 
Thanks for all of the responses! You guys are great! I tossed it back in the fridge and I’m carrying on as usual! I like the idea of marking the vial as well

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.
