First Cycle Pain

Now then peeps. Started my first T cycle about 2 weeks ago, nothing massive just 2x .5ml jabs a week. Everything has been fine except I'm getting lasting pain in my glutes after injection. Doesn't come on immediately but the day after it aches like hell, lasts for a good few days as well, is this normal?? Its the first time I've done any sort of steroid and first I'm injections as well so not sure if it'll just fade over time or if something is wrong. Cheers for the help
 
Sounds like PIP-post injection pain
Its normal to get this on a first cycle as your muscle is not used to this kind of trauma
It should get easier in time
Make sure your hygiene and injection technique is all good
Warming the vile in a cup of hot water or on a radiator will help
As long as there is no redness, long lasting swelling or signs of infection then you should be fine

That's reassuring then, I'm very ott with hygiene and my friend who's been using for a while has helped me with injections till I get used to it. I had considered swapping to the thigh to see if that makes a difference but I'll just stick it out for a few more weeks and see if the pain subsides. Cheers mate!
 
Where abouts on your glute are you injecting?
What size pin you using?
What ester of test is it?
Mrs bra size?
What lab?

Top right quarter
1" blue, 23g if I'm not mistaken
Test300
Don't know as she doesn't wear them
Nah he's a staff, not a lab

Probably just normal virgin muscle pain from jabbing.
There's talk of pippy test e knocking about so could be that

Yea that's fair enough, I don't think it's the T as I know 2 other people running the same stuff (all got it same place, same time) and they're not getting any pain from it, but this ain't their first rodeo and it is mine lol
 
Didn't notice you'd posted the needle size just before I asked. Lab means which "laboratory" (guy in a garage, more accurately) made your gear.

I don't use anything bigger than a 25g personally.

Ahhh righto, its MediPharma TestoCombo 300mg.
The needle itself doesn't hurt, it's just muscle ache starting the day after and lasting up to a week... Might just be my virgin glutes never being jabbed before but wanted to make sure it wasn't a bigger issue
 
Try a minimum of 1.25” needle for glutes

Could also just be a site that’s not good for you. I always had issues with glutes even when the Mrs did it to make sure I wasn’t doing something wrong. Few people said the same over the years.
Could just be pip from a new site to. First shots I ever took crippled the muscle I used.
You could try using delts as well to see if it’s any better. Just make sure to do it when there’s a gap till a push session. It’s always good to have a few useable sites imo so you don’t over scar one muscle anyway.
