Refrigerate HCG ?

Hey guys just started my HCG. I read somewhere before( but cant find it with this new layout, LOL) about it needing refrigarating after its mixed?

Can someone confirm this?

Also, are Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) shots supposed to hurt a bit more because of the bac water ? Or is it the same thing? Im doing em 23G IM.

Thanks
 
and no doesn't hurt it all. some people say they felt stings depending on the type of bac water if it has alcohol in it. or if they didn't wait for the alcohol to dry before the injection. i think that that thread is in the testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) forum. but i've never had any stings.

Yeah thats what I was thinking, the alcohol might give it a bit of a sting.

Im guessing since the shots can be done SQ, I dont have to bury the needle if im doing IM ? 23G 1 inch, can i do 1/2 way ?

Also, do you guys let it cool down in temp from the fridge before injecting or just pull it out of the fridge and stick yourselves?
 
let me try to find that thread real quick since it has detailed info like there's a type of alcohol or something that would do it, mine doesn't have it since i've never felt stings.

i only do subq shots with insulin pins nothing else. you want to use a 23g to do a subq shot but go 1/2 way? i don't know wouldn't that still be a thick needle going into your stomach? (that's where I do my subq) insulin pins are easy i just do it with that.

well i'm no expert but, i just mixed up my Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) batch last week after i mixed it up i just shot. i think putting it in the fridge is only for storage.

EDIT: found the thread - steroidology.com/forum/testosterone-replacement-therapy/626783-hcg-stings.html

As far as I know it must be kept in the fridge but word of warning take the vial and shake it every so often otherwise from what I have noticed it tends to form a crystal like stuff in the solution if your fridge is too cold.

Mine also stong a little, they actually hurt more then the test pins. I use insulin needles 29G 1 inch works perfect.
 
I usually reconstitute the Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) and make all my slin pins at one time and put them in a zip lock in the fridge. It should keep for at least a mos w/o going bad The shots are done sub q. You can easily do them in your belly next to your belly button and yeah if you're going IM with bac water I can imagine you'd feel a nice sting. BTW not to contradict HDV but I have always read that u DONT shake any reconstituted products, in all honesty I dont know the why but just that u dont
 
Well yeah agreed on the shaking there ^^

I should have rather said just give it a slight stir to keep the fluid alive. My first batch of Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) formed crystal like stuff in it if it just stood still for too long and ever since I moved the fluid around the vial a little this never occurred again.
 
I usually get a light stinging feeling when pinning the HCG, but I think it is a combo of the little alchol in the BAC water and the fact the Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) solution is cold from the fridge. More from being cold since it goes away in like 3 secs. Also when I take mine out from the fridge I give it a circular swirl not a rough shake.
 
Thanks for the replies guys. Yeah I didnt have time to get slin pins, but my dude has always done em IM so I figured it was no biggie to continue em that way.
