I hit a vein while injecting testosterone

[jkeith]

Did an injection on my thigh 1" 25g. I'm guessing I did it to far on the side. Felt a slight pain when putting the needle in, aspirated and had blood. Pulled back out, changed to a 26g 1.5 and used my glute. Two questions: anything to worry about as far as hitting or going through the vain 2. Injected in the glute with a little blood in the syringe, ok? Actually had a little bleeding coming from my glute, my guess it was the blood.

1. Other than a possible bruise, you should be fine as long as you were in the lateral (outside) part of the thigh, which it sounds as though you were.

2. Injecting your own blood into yourself should not cause any issues.

Nah you are fine... move to deltoid injection and you never have to worry again... I injected thigh for years and recently began injecting in the delt and I love it!! Yes there is a learning curve on how to hold the syringe, once you get it, it is painless and easy!!
