1st time user, pip
I just started using HGH 4 days ago and have been having some minor pip that I've read will usually subside in a few days, but wanted to check what everyone thought.
I'm using bacteriostatic water and 30G 1/2" needles. I'm using some generic UGL GH purchased from a top source on this forum, 14iu per vial mixed with 1ml of bac water. I've pinned ED when I wake up -- 2iu the first day, 3iu the second day and 4iu the past 2 days. I feel no side effects such as hand numbness or CTS. blood glucose level has been stable/expected. I took an IGF blood test prior to starting, and I'm planning on have it measured again after pinning this GH.
My 1st injection I went IM in the deltoid. After a few hours my deltoid was sore, but I figured it might have just been from the needle -- the pain is gone now. The next 3 injections I've done sub-q a few inches to the side of my belly button alternating sides. The first and second one so far have developed a red spot around the injection sites and one of them has developed into a small bruise. The small welts hurt a bit, but did not feel solid just a bit bruised. I usually pinch a bit of fat and then inject into it.
I feel a bit bloated, and today I feel a bit of pressure in my stomach and into my left hip.
Is this normal? Am I doing this right?

I always put on 8-10 lbs of water during the first two weeks of a GH run but it always subsides by week 4.so far everything looks and sounds normal.
this is reassuring, thank you for your input. I gained ~10 pounds in a matter of about 10 days and started to get worried lol
It’s not pip from your gh. It’s from the syringe. You have virgin muscles and that’s where the soreness comes from. I always do my gh IM...
I think you're right. I've been pinning sub-q ~4 inches to the side of my belly button, and I've had a couple that turned into small hard bumps that eventually go away after a couple days.
Does this go away after more pins?
Sounds like a bad reaction. Or you pores or some shit!
I can imagine which HGH you run and yes in the first days the injection spots hurting a bit, but never more than 1-2 days.
I never pinned HGH i.m. so here I can't help!
But regarding the s.q. injection , pin a bit more outside - not too close to the belly button and inject SLOW.
You can also try to mix it with 2cc water or even the water is your problem - try to get another bac water and compare.
Regarding sides, you use it since 4 days! HGH needs weeks till you feel effects, sides are not a sign that its good or bad GH. From pharma GH I've never got numbness or anything else - I was only very tired.
Tron14 IU in each bottle?
Yes bro , very popular brand. Their partner company has 12IU vials if I'm right.
I’m not sure about a partner company. They actually appear to be EU based, not China like I thought.
You seem to be right about the injections. My latest injection no pain or bruising like the first 2 subq injections.
Should I aim for my obliques? They seem to be the most abundant in fat.
RustyhookerSounds like you dont know hgh use either. Jumping doses to get sides. Are you sure youre using the right dose? Never saw 14iu bottles ever
I'm not sure what you mean. Do you mean use either IM or subq? I took 4iu via ~.28ml most recently. I'm going to scale it back to 2iu. I was under the impression that 4iu was the dosage for fat burning and figured since it was generic it wouldn't be as strong as pharma.
Sounds like something in the HGH. HGH shots should be pretty much PIP free with the pin you are using.
Hmm, possibly. It is made in China, but the lab facilities look very professional from the videos on the source. Not many people have reviewed the source for GH, mostly steroids.
In Wuhan, Hubei?
Lmao I actually just found out that they’re EU based. Luckily I don’t feel any signs of a fever...
AnonSometimes a sub-q injection around my belly will feel a bit sore. Ive spotted a tiny bruise or lump before too. Sometimes the alcohol wipe before pinning can cause a little sting when I pin. I've experienced this with HGH, HCG, and numerous peptides. All of which were reconstituted with Bac Water. I've even had mild pip from IM injections of PEG-MGF and BPC-157. I think it's a hit and miss thing. Sometimes you irritate some nerves when you pin and get pip. You're sticking a needle in your body and injecting something, sometimes it's gonna hurt a little other times it's not. If this is just an occasional occurrence you're having and the pain is minor and not long lasting then I dont think it's an issue. If you are getting long lasting painful red welps then that doesn't sound normal at all. I dont know about the bloating, stomach pressure, and hip pressure. Do you think you are a hypochondriac? Do you have a history of being abnormally anxious about your health?
After the 3rd shot, it seems the red welts have stopped and the previous ones have turned more into brown/yellow bruising. The red welts and bruising seems to show up a day later or so.
I may be hypochondriac, yes. I'm probably overthinking it, just new to this and wanted to make sure I don't harm myself.
AnonYou are a hypochondriac. You talking about the natrual progresion of a bruise like you never had one before. You said "I feel a bit bloated, and today I feel a bit of pressure in my stomach and into my left hip." Maybe that bit of feel is in your head man.
5 days ago you replied to me saying:
"The only reason I'm going IM is because I've been reading reviews of the HGH I purchased and lots of forum posts regarding the source and they all suggest that IM is much more likely to not cause pip while some users have mentioned pip incidents when injecting it sub-q."
You were worried about pip before you even started the stuff. Just post a pic of these post injection site sores and let the community judge how bad it looks.
I'm not sure, possibly man. My gut feels heavy lol it's tough not to notice and just be in my head, but maybe.
AnonIf you're having a bunch of problems just stop taking it. Go back to your source's stream and say sorry I'm having all kinda sides, changing my dose by the day, and I'm a nervous wreck, so I can't post reliable bloods for you like I said I would.
Nervous wreck seems a bit overboard, just cautious my first time using injectables and looking for some guidance from some knowledgeable people willing to help lol...
Lol...
Sounds like you’re having a reaction from possible contaminates in the product. Go to the sources SI page and ask if anyone has had the same problem you’re having man.
Also you should go up in dose much slower (don’t think that’s what’s causing red spots at all) but will definitely cause other unwanted sides going up to fast in dose. (Cts, bloating, etc)
Try 2iu for 3-4 weeks then 3iu for same allotted time, etc etc til you get to where you’re wanting to be at dose wise
Good luck
I'll dial it back to 2iu and see if the bloating stops. Thanks for the input! I felt like I had endless amounts of stamina at the gym under 4iu, although 2iu felt pretty good also.
