[QUOTE="Blackhawk, post: 270427, member: 16042"] HCG is measured in IU or international units. Doses are in IU. This is an amount of HCG, and does not mean the amount of fluid. The units on your syringe are not the same. Those units are of fluid volume. HCG comes a dry powder that for our purposes*, bacteriostatic water is mixed into. *(for other fertility purposes sometimes a vial is single use and does not require the bacteriostatic component, so normal saline is used) . The number of IUs in a given fluid volume can vary. It is commonly mixed at 1000iu per 1ml, At that concentration if you re injecting .25ml, yes the dose is 250iu. This is probably what you are getting. To know the actual dose, you need to know the concentration in the fluid. [/QUOTE]
