Not from what ive heard/read. The absorbtion is the same either way. The only reason it would make a difference is injection volume. You should only use 1cc per max per site subq, so if your hcg is mixed 500iu/cc, and you want to use 1000iu, you would either have to hit 2 sites, or go IM.

Well said. Personally i like sub Q only cuz its easy and its just less scar tissue on the muscle inject spot. At the end of ED tren its hard to stick the needle in.

Rumors? Its what ive read everywhere... can you post some supporting documention so i can change the errors of my ways?

If you're going to say something as 'matter-of-factly' as that, you should post something that supports it.

"In conclusion, self-administered subcutaneous hCG is safe and produces comparable levels of serum and salivary testosterone to that administered by the intramuscular route."

Good article, looks like i will be sticking with the subq... im enough of a pincushion with ED prop/tren.

Here is another one too:
"Maximal plasma hCG levels will be reached in males approximately 6 and 16 hours after a single intramuscular or subcutaneous injection of hCG, respectively and in females after approximately 20 hours. HCG is approximately 80 per cent metabolized, predominantly in the kidneys. Intramuscular and subcutaneous administration of hCG were found to be bioequivalent regarding the extent of absorption and the apparent elimination half-lives of approximately 33 hours. On basis of the recommended dose regimens and elimination half-life, cumulation is not expected to occur."

Looks like the main difference between subq and IM, is the amount of time for blood levels to peak, 6hrs for IM, 16hrs for subq.

My doctor prescribed directions state clearly not to inject IM but to inject subqutaneously (sp?)
