I'm Hooked On Pens

@josephbrown said in I'm Hooked On Pens:
@RussBechthold I have been using a pen for Test Cyp for about 2 months now. It works with a 29g pen needles. Also if you make sure your test is in a thinner oil like MCT that helps also.
What length? Are you doing the Test Sub Q or IM?
@Commander Im doing injections twice per week in the glutes mainly. sometimes thigh to mix it up. no idea what is sub q or Im is. always confuses me. im thinking of doing it 3 x per week instead so a pen would make life much easier. which pen do you use? any info on which one exactly and supplies for it is appreciated.

@russbechthold In the glutes and thighs, if you are using the 4mm-8mm needles, it's sub-q (right below the skin into the "fatty" part. To reach IM (intramuscular), or into the muscle, you would probably need a 1.25 to 1.5 inch needle depending on your physique.
I would recommend the V4 for the best bang for your buck, but it looks like Randy is sold out of them. In that case, go for the V2 or V3.5 (edit: 3.5 are sold out now) to get your feet wet. If you don't mind spending the money, go for the Xulin.
Does anyone know how often the website restocks their pens?

@Nuncles
thanks for the advice.
I decided on the V2 through Peptipen. I used the HACHSMlTH coupon code and got buy 2 get one free . great deal -
I have a V2 pen I bought from Randy.
I saw a few comments about a few more drops coming out of the needle after removing the injection pen. I saw some comments saying leave the pen in a few seconds after injecting. That would be fine if the pain after pressing the injection button wouldn’t become significantly more painful after it bottoms out. I’m using the glucicare 32 gauge 4mm needles.
I don’t know if I’m doing something wrong or if this is normal.
