Injection duration

[Jk78]

Basic question I haven't seen any actual guidance on. How long after you "pin" should you take to push the plunger and inject the test cyp. I'm doing 50mg (.25ml) subq injections, and all I see recommended is "slowly". I feel sometimes I am injecting too quick, as I do get a little nodule under the skin for a day or two, even with massaging the area post injection. I know this is a miniscule thing. Just looking to compare to others. Thank you,

How long is your needle and gauge? Most use 29g 1/2", and where are you on your body injecting it?
I push TCyp as fast as I can which is pretty slow actually. There's no "pressure washer" effect if you push it too fast if that's what your asking.
Many men including myself find injecting TCyp in the belly fat to be problematic...itchy and/or sore little nubs, redness...I can't take TCyp in the belly and use my upper outer thigh instead.

I do inject slow but I bet it doesn't take me more then 10 seconds. I inject in my shoulders https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0uXoBb6mkys

I do IM injection in the glute and try to take a good 20 seconds or so to empty the syringe. I've gotten a nodule only once and typically don't even feel a soreness in the days following.

Vince, I have 27ga 1/2" right now. I tried the abdomen area to, but noticed the the itchiness as well. I thought I was imagining it, but felt it a few times. Thigh just seems to be less bothersome overall.
