Subcutaneously administered steroids

If the needles don't bother you much then that's great. I prefer no pain at all, so it's an easy expense for me to justify. You could actually buy a 50 mg tube of it as well and put it on yourself with a dressing. The patches are pre-made and easy though. Still the tube would go a lot farther. You also only really need an area the size of a dime or a quarter realistically...it's a very small bit of skin you actually inject.

I dont think this sub q protocol could replace Im jabs, but when the IM volume get too high, and too frequent, it is nice to have the option. Limit your pokes to 1/2cc and all is good.

Well, I tried this the first time today with my TRT dose.. 1/2 ml of Delatestryl Sub Q in the abdominal area... went in fine, feels fine.. see how it feels tommorrow.

Think I'll keep this up for the next few months. Once a week and no IM shots... nice!

If I were "cycling" heavy, I'd do IM shots, but for HRT this is excellent so far IMHO.

hmmmm, I might try this for tren. I only shoot EOD right now but would prefer to hit ED for tren but last time I ran ED shots (6 months) it was a huge annoying pain.

Two days later, can't even really feel where I did the sub q shot.. feels a little tender, and I mean on a scale of one to ten, it's a one.

Perfect of HRT. No more IM for me if this works. Funny thing is on my box of Deletestryl it says to do SubQ... I thought they pharmacist was a dumb ****, maybe he's smarter than I thought and it wasn't a mistake.

why haven't sub q injects for gear become more popular if its so painless AND the potency is still just as good as IM?

Just did a tren A shot no pain at all.

You'd have a bubble 2 inches thick. lol.

The other thing is I don't recall seeing this mentioned before, but I haven't really searched either...doesn't anyone else use EMLA patches? If you're unfamiliar, it stands for Eutectic Mixture of Local Anaesthetics. (I think)...Close anyway..

It's non precription and you just ask for it at the pharmacy as they have it behind the counter with the prescription stuff. It's a little over $10 for two easy stick on patches about twice the size of a Loonie. Put on at least an hour before an injection in your glutes and you won't feel a thing. I even had 23 gauge needles go in without even knowing they were in. The funny thing is that it's only the tip of your skin that really feels the needle. I don't feel a damn thing in the lower parts, and I used to use the 25 gauge needles all the way that were as long as ****! Takes away all the stress and no jumping either. :)

Um. . .pretty sure the pain everyone is trying to avoid isn't the actual shot. . if you seriously use pain killers to do shots then. . wtf. It hurts as much as a mesquito bite. It's the HUGE golf ball size lump people doin 3cc shots are looking to avoid lol.

I recently tried going a little further to the anterior on a glute shot. . .not a good idea. Manged to put it into a small muscle in there somewhere and it hurts like abtich, this thread sounds good. If I could do 1cc Im shots and just have a lil sore lump. . So much better than feeling like someone cranked me with a bat after a day. . .
