Mixing kit HCG syringe not graduated to 11,000 IU?

[roadglide]

Hey guys I'm mixing my HCG today. This is the second time I've done this. I watched the video on youtube and it says it's a 10ml syringe but has to additional marks for for 11 and 12ml. Mine doesn't but after measuring it looks like the bottom of the B-D logo is exactly 11ml.

Also in the video he pulls air out of the bottle of HCG. I'm not sure if this really works, because the first time I did this and pulled the needle out I heard a rush of air. Any tricks to this?

i too received a 10mL mixing syringe. heres what i did :
1. insert mixing syringe into hcg and withdraw 5mL of air.
2. withdraw mixing syringe and insert into bac water and pressurize with 5mL of air. withdraw 5mL of bac water.
3. withdraw mixing syringe and insert into hcg and slowly add 5mL of bac water. after 5mL of bac water is in with the hcg, withdraw 6mL of air and do the same steps again of grabbing some bac water and putting it in with the hcg.

i withdraw air from the hcg vial because simply adding 11mL of bac water will put it under considerable pressure and will likely spray back at you.

good luck

I do the same thing - its easier than it sounds when you look at the steps - takes me maybe 3-4 minutes at most.

What size needle do you guys use for mixing?

Correct. Never putting pressure over your peptide is also good practice when handling a delicate compound.

10ml 21G x 1" . Set vial on counter. Insert bac water filled 10 ml. Pull back the plunger a tiny bit. Air will rise to the top. Fill will begin gently through gravity. When it stops pull back on the plunger again while keeping vial planted on counter. Goes very fast using a 21G while reducing holes you are poking in the rubber.

Leave the 21 G needle in place and uptake your first dose in the delivery syringe swapping on a 30G for injection. Store your hCG in a pill vial in the fridge. Snip off points over the toilet. Crush syringe and discard bits in recycle bin.

Thereafter use a 27G 1/2 for withdrawal then swap on a 30G x 1 for injection when not using insulin syringes.

No reason you can't re-use that 10ml syringe if you store it in a tube of ethanol. If having difficulty finding supplies pm me. Novarel comes with twice the required volume of bac water leaving me with surplus. Going with a glass syringe. Got 100 B-D 10ml sealed pre-fitted w/ 21G 1/2, also 3ml 27's, also a case of Rx grade 1 gm molecularly distilled Norwegian pure EPA/DHA. One cap replaces 3-6 caps of your fish oil made from fish scrap.

Hey thanks Re-Ride and others for the lengthy explanation. Some how I still messed up. I had pressure in the bottle and pulled the needle out and sprayed. Pushed it back and was able to finish filling. Think I'm dosed a little strong though. As I said this was my second time. The first time was easier for some reason. Third times a charm I hope! I'll practice with an empty bottle of HCG and with the left over water.

I always pull 2 syringes worth of air, 5-10ml from my HCG vials after mixing to remove that added air (pressure) as you noticed you'll get a spray when pulling the syringe due to the pressure inside the vial.

Good technique does take practice. Getting it with an MT is a great idea. Ask for a 21-25G x 1/2 needle which makes reconstitution way easier.

If you're not under MD care 250 IU EOD for duo is a good starting point. For mono 350-500 IU. Those doses are a stab in the dark. Be patient to see results, 14-21 days, especially if your LH FSH has been low for some time as it typically will be on mono cyp or gel.
