Guest guest Posted July 14, 2010 Report Share Posted July 14, 2010 Phew! So this is ok then. I was starting to get the impression that I needed 1 1/2 " needles, cause I got a box of 100 1/2 " 27g needles, and will shoot in the same place. > > > > > > > The size of the needles you use: I use a 22 gauge > > needle to withdraw the T-Cyp, > > > >and 25 gauge 1 " needle to inject with. I > > find the 27 guage needle, though > > > >finer and potentially a bit less painful, is too > > short. The T-Cyp gets into > > > >the bloodstream too fast in my opinion.

Guest guest Posted July 14, 2010 Report Share Posted July 14, 2010 What I like most about this group is that people can choose what works best for them. Some are on Androgel, some on TC, some on DIM, some on Armidex. I would choose whatever needle works for you. > > > > > > > > > The size of the needles you use: I use a 22 gauge > > > needle to withdraw the T-Cyp, > > > > >and 25 gauge 1 " needle to inject with. I > > > find the 27 guage needle, though > > > > >finer and potentially a bit less painful, is too > > > short. The T-Cyp gets into > > > > >the bloodstream too fast in my opinion.
