Shallow IM NPP

ad

I try to rotate my injection sites around. I've been doing NPP EOD. Since I use a small amount for therapeutic benefits, I thought a 1/2" need or so would do the trick, shallow IM is what I thought. I tend to get quite a bit of PIP from NPP.

The other day I pinned 0.4 mL (40 mg) of NPP in my left quad, and sweet baby Jesus in a manger, my quad hurt for several days. I rubbed it quite a bit for relief. It might have looked marginally swollen, but no redness or anything. It's a lot better today. I think I'm going to use at least 1" henceforth.

Anyone else get PIP from NPP? I'll also mention that I get a little bit of PIP from even regular test, maybe because I still have virgin muscle. I mixed my NPP with some test and gave myself an injection yesterday, not the slightest PIP. I used a 1" needle.

I do test E3D.

IMO/IMO - have not had PIP from it but, I use a 1” needle for delt, quads, pectoral, lats . I use 1.5” for Glutes and VG.
It may help because I get large volume (Aveed) 3ml/750mg TRT and they use a 22g 1.5” upper outer Glute and VG . I am pretty lean, a 1/2 inch isn’t appropriate for oil based IM injections (that is not standard of practice for RN’s). Try the switch and wish you luck . Npp has given PIP at 200mg/ml (forgot to mention) but not with 100mg/ml

Thank you for your input. I've started mixing NPP and Test E3D with a 1", 25g needle. I have been having good results doing that. Longer needle was the solution I believe. I think the shallow IM was recommended to me from a TRT forum - and they just put it in the delts. My dumbass thought quad at 1/2" was okay too lol.

Only time I use a 1” pin is when pinning my delts. Half cc at the most. Anything more than that always gives me PIP. I also ALWAYS slowly rotate my pins while injecting to space it out a little more, and limits any PIP for me. I also heat up every compound I inject, except for HGH. Quads are off limits to me. Never once have I had a successful experience. Always painful for days afterwards. Not sure why, but I gave up. I just ran Winstrol for two weeks every day injections, switching glutes every day, and surprisingly saw great results in only two weeks. I would have probably run it longer but had to leave for vacation and couldn’t risk smuggling gear internationally. Needless to say, I have a whole new respect for Winstrol. Time for a break now, and will cruise test only until sometime in February

It hurt like hell (the PIP or wtf ever that was). I actually like the feeling of the needle going in and pushing the oil or whatever in. I like quad simply for the fact it's easy to reach. I'm pretty stocked up in 1" 25 ga, but some other forums recommended 1/2" for delts for TRT. Then sprinkle in a little if me just being a fucking moron and curiosity and boom.

That explains it. There also is some literature about SubQ nandrolone I skimmed over. It seemed there could be some good results. However, I didn't like the burn. I like a little PIP though.

I see what I did now. 1" all the way. I don't have any 1.5". I use the 1" for glutes. Maybe I'll get a few of those. I really love the entire process of it all. When I get deep in the muscle, I can feel it. It feels different. I do NPP EOD to give me a reason to pin more often - adjusting dose accidentally.

Shouldn't be any pip from NPP. You need to pin deeper.

Absolutely. Never understood the "shallow" trend some guys opt for these days. Or the sub q route with TRT. Then complain about welts and redness. Live and learn I guess

Well sub q TRT is recommended by some Doctors and it seems to work for some. Nothing wrong with doing sub q for TRT using Prescribed test C it it works.. I'm not into it myself.

I've read about it, and just wanted to give it a go. I think I'm going to do at least a 1" from here. That shallow IM wasn't fun.

Peps are the only thing I would pin SubQ

That's what I was coming to conclude. I do like a deep needle. It feels good.

True, I thought about that and thought maybe it's the reason he is getting PIP. Then he mentioned mixing a little Test with the NPP and pinning with 1inch needles and getting no PIP. So to me that verified his NPP isn't high MG dosage lol

I get no PIP from NPP, however I am not a fan of pinning quads. Depending on how much body fat you are carrying, 1/2 needles might be too short. I use 1 inch for basically everything, delts, chest, traps, sometimes glutes, but I much prefer 1.5 on glutes if possible. I hope you have more sites than just quads. Delts are great, 3 injection sites there.Plenty of real estate in the glutes. Pecs are good spot too. Not a fan of injecting bi's, tri's, and quads.Check out spotinjections.com for guides to various injection sites. Good luck
