I am on doc prescribed trt 200 mg per week broken up into two shots on sunday evening and thursday mornings. I usually go with delt shots using an insulin pin that I backload. This morning I did my shot and as usual I always go all the way with the 1/2 inch needle as well as pressfirmly down to make sure I get it into muscle some depth. Upon finishing and withdrawing needle I had a fairly big stream of blood come out. I pressed firmly with alcohol gauze pad and stopped bleeding but wondering how much do you guys think I actually lost of the oil if you had to guess...? Now wondering if I should stick myself again with maybe just a quarter cc. to make up for possible lost oil. Any opinions at all? Thanks guys I appreciate it.
 
If I had to guess I would say the amount you lost was negligible. You probably nicked a blood vessel. The oil won't mix with blood, so unless your gauze pad was really oily probably only the thinner blood was coming out.
