How to mix HCG?

[bobdig]

Ok I finished my first ever cycle, I ran it for 8 weeks, 200mg test cyp and 200mg nandro per week.

No real side effects other than some back acne towards the end, and a little more hair loss than usual (real minor though). No testicle shrinkage (good times).

My last inject of test cyp was last friday. I plan on starting PCT (HCG only, I have no nolva or clomid).


I don't know how to mix this HCG though.

I have 10,000 IU's of a white powder (HCG) in one vial.

The other vial has Bacteriostatic water in it.

How many CC's of water do I add to the HCG vial? How often do I inject the HCG, how much do I inject, can I use a 23 gauge needle for it, can I inject the same spot and same way I was doing for the test and deca (right cheek), or do I need to inject it into fat instead of muscle.

And once its mixed, and stored in the fridge, how long does it last for (says 14 days on the bottle, seems short).

What you probably have is the solvent that comes with it, and that is not bacteriostatic water. Thats why it says 14 days...

Anyway..

So you have 10,000iu of HCG. Take 2ml of bacteriostatic water and add that to the vial. Now you have 10,000iu/2ml or 5,000iu/1ml of HCG. Jenetic's protocol says for 1,000-1,500 IUs HCG 3x/wk (mod/wed/fri). I run 1,250iu 3x/wk. And to get the 1,250iu just divide the 5,000iu/1ml by 2, twice (5000/2=2500, 2500/2=1250).This measures out to 1/4cc on a regular syringe. Or if youre using a 100iu Slin pin it's 25iu. So in reality, your vial has 10 shots of 1250iu of HCG.

You can inject intramuscularly(IM) or subcutaneous(SC). I prefer IM.

PS. Bacteriostatic water after reconstitution, when refrigerated, lasts for 30days.

What he said. Except I think he meant you would get 8 (not 10) shots of 1250iu (8x1250 = 10000).

Basically you just decide what dose you want each shot to be (let's say 1250) then divide 10000 by that number (10000/1250 = 8). That means no matter how much water you add, each 1250iu shot is 1/8 of that amount. So just be sure to choose an amount of water than divides nicely by 8 (example 2cc, 2.4cc, 3.2cc, 4 cc, etc.)

When you are going to do multiple shots from one syringe, I would discard the vial that comes with the HCG and instead use quality BA water (from www.getpinz.com or other source). The water that comes with the HCG is "single-use" water and is not meant to be stored for reuse.
