Needle Size and Length for Test/Cyp IM Input.
My new doc says I can inject myself in the gluteal muscle (butt cheek) with test/cyp with a needle as small as 21 ga and as short as 1/2 inch.
I want to inject at home so I can give a lower dose but more often so I do not have as many peaks any valleys. My problem, I can't find that gauge in that length. I'll even go for 5/8" if I have too, all I can find is 1 inch and 1 1/2. What needles are you guys using? - 06-18-2012, 04:33 PM
23g and 1.5 inch

1/2" seems awfully short for the glute, i just started and am using 22g 5/8" into my quad.
1 1/2" should do the job in the glute... - 06-18-2012, 06:59 PM

23G, one inch should be fine.

wow, you all are using a really high gauge (large size), that crap would hurt. I've been using 25g for about a year and have no problems or pain.

It don't hurt at all. My wife does the shots for me. Did the thigh today for the 1st time. No pain there either.

the past 6 weeks I've been using insulin pins the thigh with no problems.. I draw it up with a 18g and backload the insulin. I use BD 30g 1/2 inch. Keep in mind I only shoot 1/2 cc of cyp. If I had to inject a full cc I would instead us a 25g 1inch in the glutes.
