Leakage from Injection Site

[TestBoss]

Hey everyone - I gave myself one of my twice a week sub q injections of test cyp, but I looked down this time and there was clear liquid slowly going down my stomach area. How do you all prevent the cypionate from leaking out like that? I want every single drop staying in me. I left the needle in for 5 seconds before pulling it out and objected slowly. What else should I do? Don't want any wasted. Thanks

You can also rub the area with your clean hand after injecting.

Are you pinching or not when injecting?
How much are you using at once?

another method is call Z tracking.

Google it. There are multiple links with videos.

What's google? never heard of it. I'm injecting .3ML at once twice a week, not pinching. I'm doing exactly how Dr. Crisler's video shows.

Seriously?

You'd have to be a caveman to not know what google is. Of course I know. That's where I get lots of info. Just wanted to know what you guys do to prevent the leaking out.

And we told you - some of us use the Z track method.

Every now and then, I get a little leakage on my thigh. I don't dwell on it, just hold the alcohol swab/pad in place for a minute or so and it will be good to go.

Ok thanks. Do I really have to do the Monday morning injection and Thursday night routine? Or can I do both Monday morning and Thursday morning shots? Would it make that big of a difference?

The 3.5 even split of the week will always result in one shot being delivered at night. If it is a challenge for you to inject in the evening, for whatever reason, do what you feel works for you. If your doctor specified a true 3.5 day protocol, I would try and follow that, however.

Since everyone metabolizes at a different rate, it's hard to put a thumb on it as an exact science. IMO, the 1/2 day factor isn't a deal breaker for a good HRT program. With as much as I travel, there's times I can't be completely on track. I do the best I can, keep it as close as possible, and do it all over again the next week. Which reminds me, time to pin!!

Lol I'm the same way man I don't think I'm going to be able to wait all day until the evening before I inject again. I get excited about injection days. I've been doing Monday AM and Thursday AM, but I think it's psychological that I don't feel as good on Sunday.
