[QUOTE="psaufan, post: 151878, member: 15079"] So, I had been doing shallow IM (25g x 5/8") into the upper arm for the last year or so. I cannot do this injection myself, for whatever reason...so, the wife had been doing it. I recently switched - using the same 25g x 5/8" needle to subq in the glute. When doing, I, or the wife, slightly pinches up the skin and does the injection. I also have 27g x 1/2" that I plan to use when traveling, as I sometimes cannot twist around to do the glute injection due to lower back issues...question about alternate injection sites below. A couple of questions: (1) I do my HCG injections in the "love handles", rotating sides. I do my subq Ipamorelin injections in my abdomen. So, for the subq test cyp injections...what are my options: glutes? thigh? other areas that might work? does one area tend to be a better site than the other in regards to absorption? (2) I've been doing these subq injections now for right at two weeks and I feel like I'm in a trough...hard to get up in the morning and moody as heck. Is this part of a normal transition from IM to subq? Suggestions? I've done some Google research and some people say they hit a trough but transitioned out after a few weeks due to the change in 'absorption rate'? I know the dangers of Google research, so I thought to ask everyone here. Thoughts and insight...opinions and suggestions are appreciated! [/QUOTE]
