do i need to switch the needles to inject myself why cant i just use the same needle to pin that i used to transfer the bac water
Because it's dulled and a greater risk for infection

Needle would be incredibly dull and hurt to much to pierce skin. Also it bieng out for ages will cause it to be exposed to microbes in the air that potentially infect it

Saw this mf post on org a while ago abt how antisep wipes are useless bc "the bacteria is already on the skin which absorbs it so it cant be harmful" hope that mf died

Had alot of people asking me this all over socials so ill post a small guide here-

RECONSTITUTION-
reconstituon is a little less simple then you might think. It includes math and precision to not ruin and/or underdose your peptide.
what do i need ?
To reconstite your peptide you need the following-
Peptide In powder form
Vial of bacteriostatic water (bac water)
Alchohol/cleansing wipes
Either one of the needles you'll use to administer your peptide or a bigger gauge for faster water drawing and dispensing
how do I reconstitute?
To recon you need steady hands and precision
wipe down the top of bac water vial after removing lid if there's one

push you desired needle into the vial slowly making sure not to touch any of the glass sides or bottom (metals from needle will break of inside ur water) you'll need to tilt the vail if ur needle isn't long enough.

A little bit of math is need here, figure out what you want your mg per ml of peptide to be. E.g 5 mg of peptide you would need 5ml of water for 1mg/mL dose. This part is personal preference. Draw ur desired amount of bac water into ur syringe

INPORTANT- do not inject water directly into peptide
After water is drawn remove needle and now wipe down the peptide vail as you did with the bac water. PUSH YOUR NEEDLE IN AT AN ANGLE, the water needs to trickle down the side of vial so slowly insert the needle into the vial at an angle where u can run the water down the inside wall. If u dont do this the powder will NOT reconstitute properly. Inject the water slowly.

Now hopefully u have water resting on top of the powder. DONT SHAKE. Slowly roll the vial in between palms or gently swirl. Don't let the water clash with the walls and rebound, it should be a smooth movement.

You should be able to see when all the powder has resolved but do not inject just yet, let the vial sit (chilled if needed to be) for around 45 minutes to be safe. Inspect you vial carefully shining a torch if needed. There should be nothing of any size floating around in ur peptide. If there is simply dont Inject. Waste of money yes but your health is  more important, it could be metals or worse.

PINNING YOUR PEPTIDE-
Remove packaging and cap from your syringe and inspect the needle. Is it damaged or at all not looking how it should (stains ext) ? If so chuck away in sharps bin and get another needle.

Insert needle into vial and turn vial upside down so your able to extract peptide. Draw desire amount of peptide into syringe making sure dosing is as prefect as you can get it. I personally push the plunger until a single drop of liquid comes out so ik there's no air in the liquid .

Now u have ur syringe filled with pepetide, wipe down the injection area and shave if excessively hairy.

how do I know where and how deep to pin ?
(Any peds)

Firstly, go into chat gpt or anything similar and ask " how deep is [ped] injected". Most will be Subcutaneous (subq). Here's a chart showing the different injection depths -
View attachment 3052

where should I pin [ped]?
1. Subcutaneous (45°) — into the fatty layer (hypodermis) under the skin.
Common sites: outer upper arm, abdomen, thigh.
Used for insulin and most peptides (hgh, ghkcu, ext)

2. Intramuscular (90°) — deep into the muscle layer.
Common sites: upper arm (deltoid), thigh, or buttock.
Used for most anabolic steroids (test, deca, ext)

How do I know if im in the right layer ?
Here's probably the trickiest bit.
Subq- about ½ to a ¼ inch depth depending on bf%. Easiest to know when entered as layers above are thin. Should feel slightly resistance. If injecting Into abdomen squeeze the lower belly fat and push whole needle in View attachment 3056

Intramuscular-
I am yet to do this myself going of research.
As u reach the muscle you should feel a slight "pop" as you pierce past the fatty tissue. When Injected should feel like theres a pressure buildup

Some extra points-
Ghkcu will ache the first couple time
Do not tense while injecting
Squeeze fat gently to not bring up muscle aswell
Insulin needle really dont hurt u can barely feel them

Push plunger slowly in until it won't go any further and remove needle. Don't wiggle it keep it straight the whole time. Throw needle in sharps bin and cap the bac water and peptide if u haven't used all of it. Massage injection area for a minute.

This is NOT medical advice. Consult a doctor before using peds. You can get and return sharps bins from your local pharmacy for free usually.

Correct me if im wrong on anything and ask any question down below

Much love bhais ❤️
Have a great day and stay safe
