Where do you guys inject?

[MsGizmo]

I am very curious about this. I take my injections in the belly but my last one wasn’t a very nice experience so I was thinking to do it in the buttocks next week (haha I realise this may sound super wrong, or maybe not , English is not my mother language 😀)

What are your experiences?

Belly. Plenty of real estate there. I don't think my butt would be a very comfortable place if something went wrong. I'd have to sit on the bruise.

 

[Coulter1966]

Upper belly button, either side. lower belly button are is a little uncomfortable for me.

Alternate left/rite belly fat with Tirz and Insulin. 27guage needles don't bother me as I'm relatively pain tolerant cause I'm always hurtin and one little poke is a nothing burger. Have started using reusable peptide pen(V2) with 31g-5/16 needles that i can't even feel. I got a half bajillion of em cause I reuse the same needle over again(I know). Not a recommendation just how I do it, cause my risk tolerance is way up there. YMMV

How did you come to the conclusion that injecting in the arm wasn’t as effective as the other two sites?

Only the most effective scientific measuring tool. My ass. Ok so serious answer, it’s been a while since I posted that and I am a lot more lean now and have moved to my “love handles” or what’s left of them as it’s a lot less painful to pin there. I think my subjective feeling on injection sites had to do with blood flow to that particular area. The stomach fat should be getting and has a lot more blood vessels in it vs my cold ass arm fat (at the time) and I think that slowed uptake a tad. Not really based on any hard data but I think that is what caused me to think that way. I noticed the same thing when I moved to my back flank (slower uptake) but I don’t have too many good spots to poke anymore so it is what it is. I also inject every night so my blood serum levels are quite high all the time so I don’t really notice the feeling of appetite suppression being stronger the next day anymore.

For the spicy peps I do glutes/love handles. For the rest I just pick random posts on my stomach. I'm starting to slim down though so I have to be a bit more selective and pinch instead of just pinning with abandon. And for IM (I don't do much IM) I go with the top on the thigh.

The location of each product is different. It is best to choose the location based on the product

I inject in my stomach for tirzepatide. But I shifted to my thigh for KLOW. The KLOW reaction at my stomach was too strong, it kept me awake all night.

For subq, fave is love handles, sometimes twisting around to do it.

For IM (like for glutathione and testosterone), mid lateral thigh at the vl muscle (vastus lateralis).

 

[tallclarknhandsome]

On the couch, or in the bathroom...

Oh

Reta, vesugen, nad+, mt1, cjc/IPA in the belly. Bottom fat roll 6" from the belly hurts the least.

Klow and sub q glutathione go in the upper thigh. I can deal with the pain in my leg easier than the belly.

 

[Bellybutton]

I only take tirz so far, but it just goes in one of my belly quadrants that isn’t the last one I used

I tend to use the ever-giving flab wasteland known as Mordor AKA my belly, for all the injections. I try to rotate around the bellybutton but it still leaves pin-prick scars over time, no matter how I try to find a 'new' spot. (I started on 322pounds and am now at 264 - so decades of gaining and losing prior to beginning pinning, has paid off with serious stretchmarks across Mordor.

Congrats on losing 58lbs

I wish I could remember where to link it, but I read a study about Tirz injection locations and they found more appetite suppression with belly injections (and specifically left side....I think, trying to recall but I guess 50/50 I'm wrong, lol) than any other location. Since then, I stuck to the belly for that. The reason I don't remember specific side is bc I figured I needed to rotate regardless.

I've only pinned Serm. and Ipamorelin and KLOW. The Ipa I'll throw anywhere, the KLOW only in the love handle. Recently, I've learned to pinch my upper arm against my counter and will pin the KLOW and Ipa there sometimes just to shake it up.

Working up for my first IM of Glutathione tomorrow!

 

[CNCCurrency]

I have moved to my legs mostly, up and down my thighs.

 

[MrBMG]

IM - outter glutes, middle third outer thighs. Subq - stomach 2” off belly button, love handles, delts, glutes, pretty much wherever I can pinch a little fat!

 

[Twowheelr2]

Abdomen, right and left of the belly button. Outer thigh, tried inner thigh once, it bit me. And arms, up near the shoulder where the doctors aim for.

 

[Airborne Daddy]

Perineum for the win. It screams I'm alive...how could you!

 

[Twowheelr2]

Belly for most things. Thighs for GHK/GLOW/KLOW cuz I’d rather have thigh be sore than my tummy. IGF (in acetic acid buffered with BAC) I do IM, biceps or delts.

Got a pile of NAD+ I need to consider. Sounds like another spicy one.

I just upped my twice weekly dose of NAD+ to 100mg, no problem..I think most of the pins have been in the outer thigh.

Has the GLOW/KLOW been spicy? What time of day do you pin? I’m thinking about beginning a research project with that blend. Any tips appreciated.

I actually build my own GLOW in the syringe from the 3 separate vials cuz I want to control the mix - I’ve had a couple of procedures recently and upped the BPC dose injecting close to the incisions. Blending it like that lessens the soreness from the GHK.

KLOW wasn’t bad but I can still tell where I’ve pinned the next day.

Sorry I do GLOW in the am. Been adding a separate BPC pin at night.
