HCG injection protocol question

I think they 0.5. How much you injecting?

500iu per week, so two 250iu shots a week?

27G or 29G depending on the brand.

If you injecting 250ui with a 1ml insulin syringe would that be then 25 units?

This F...s with my head as well ...it is around 2.2 measurement on the syringe or 2.5

It's easy. If you have HCG 5000iu and use 2ml water to reconstitute it you will get 2500iu per ml, so to get your 250iu you will take 0.1ml. (1ml/10)

We over complicating and confusing sheit ! thx for simplifying this admin

With how much bac water is the hcg normally mixed with?

2 ml

Ok but does the insulin syringes have markings in ml or iu? Or both?

Ok, now I'm confused :blush:

I know the one vial had 1ml of water (or maybe 2ml). I mixed it with the powder vial (not sure how much powder that was). I'm using a 1ml syringe, like the one in the pic. I assumed that the 25 mark on the 1ml syringe (like in the pic) was 250iu.

Am I wrong?

Iu measurments differs from substance to substance, as it has to do with the weight of that substance. So it makes sense to measure it like admin said. The only question then is regarding the measurement markings on a insulin syringe? Which to my knowlage would be iu for that of insulin?

It is the no 1 on the syringe...the syringe goes from 1 to 10...1 being 0.1ml = 250iu

if u put 1ml of water u would have 5000iu so 2ml of water = 2500iu.. dilutes in half

earlier above I was thinking of test measurements

Okay iv got it. My syringe is in 10's so to get to 250ui I'd extract to 10 not to 25. Beemer I'm using the same kind of syringe as you.

10 what?

er no ..to 1...according to Admin ..but this is what confuses ...theres is about 2 insuline syringes of water = 2ml if u use the ins syringe to fill the vial
so no 2 on the syringe = 250 iu per shot times 10 = 2ml.

right or wrong admin ?

I don't understand how you guys are getting confused... As a general rule of thumb try use 2ml water for all your solutions, this eliminates unecessary confusion...

5000iu hcg powder mixed with 2ml water = 5000iu in 2ml, therefore 2500 iu of hcg in 1ml, if you want 250iu you divide by 10, just as admin explained, so will be like below

2500iu(1ml) / 10 = 250iu(0.1ml)

0.1ml on an insulin needle is 10 units ... (always remember 100 units equals 1ml)

So for the guys using there hcg with 2ml mixing solution, you will be shooting 10 units (250iu) twice a week.

Hope that made sense haha

It does thanx, thats what was confusing- what marking on the syringes are equally to 0.1ml:p

EOD shots P P ? Pct 2 = 500iu eod so 20 units by 10 shots = 2ml ?

0.1ml = no 1 on the syringe prog

Eish guys

OK. I extracted to the 25 on the syringe so I'm over-dosed.

Ha ha ha

Thing to look out for is the size of the insulin syringe. The U-100 holds 1ml as pp pointed out, then there are smaller syringes too, just read a wiki on insulin syringes:lol:

Yes, you are injecting 625iu.

Yes, but you will still inject the same volume, so it will not be a problem.

Some syringes are marked to 100iu (1ml) and others to 50iu (0.5ml). What seems to be confusing some is that they work with the iu markings on the syringe instead of converting it to ml first.

Insulin syringes are marked in iu, becuase their intended use is for insulin, but when we use them for anything else those markings should be converted to ml instead.

Remember me bitching about it in the melanotan thread, well this is what I was trying to prevent.
