[QUOTE="Saul, post: 90386, member: 16541"] You are probably picking up a trend . . . everyone is different. You will discover what works best for you. Like others, I have found that 27G or 28G to be a good size. The needle length depends on your body fat levels and where you inject. Certainly this size is geared toward SubQ since these are mostly used for insulin but if you have low body fat and/or depending on where you inject you can get into the muscle. I get into the muscle in the thigh with 1/2" . Some people have pain when injecting IM while others have pain when injecting SubQ. . There are studies that indicate subQ provides the same effect on blood T levels, but there are threads that suggest that for some subq does not work as well for T levels. Again, you can find what works best for you. For me, I don't have or rarely have pain with subQ or IM. And, my latest blood work yielded about the same T levels with either IM or SubQ. [/QUOTE]
