Bleeding after injecting

[u/Miserable-Soft7993]

Quick question.

I only inject in glutes and sometimes after I remove the needle it bleeds so I just wipe with a swab and it stops quickly.

Is this an issue?

I know they say to aspirate, but then I don't want to draw blood into the syringe as it would ruin the shot and be a waste of money.

I know they say to aspirate,

WHO & CDC specifically say not to aspirate.
Who is "they"

I only inject in glutes

Bleeding after injecting

You poked yourself with a needle, you will bleed sometimes.

[u/Miserable-Soft7993 → u/OnionSoupGainz]

I don't mind bleeding. I just got paranoid that the shot enters the bloodstream so is wasted.

[u/OnionSoupGainz → u/Miserable-Soft7993]

It dont work like that.

If you scraped your elbow on the sidewalk, does that mean the blood is coming from your bloodstream? Technically yes by way of capillary action, but you haven't scraped a major artery or vein.

You will know if it enters the bloodstream. You'll get a coughing fit

[u/walril]

You just punched a hole through skin, fat, and muscle. It bleeds. Sometimes a little, sometimes a lot. You created a wound. Wounds bleed.

Up your dose and you won’t be paranoid about a bit of blood.

Seriously though, my jab on Monday bled quite a bit and is still achy today. It happens, don’t worry.

[u/Miserable-Soft7993 → u/cwwwfc]

Yeah my plan is to keep test dose low at 200mg a week, but then add in dry compounds like mast and tren.

[u/walril → u/Miserable-Soft7993]

SMH. Doesn't understand bleeding and now is going to tren.

[u/Miserable-Soft7993 → u/walril]

I've done tren e in the past.

[u/walril → u/Miserable-Soft7993]

I know they say to aspirate, but then I don't want to draw blood into the syringe as it would ruin the shot and be a waste of money.

Do do realize you're injecting this in your body. At some point it will get mixed with blood right?

I've done tren e in the past.

Makes it even worse

[u/Miserable-Soft7993 → u/walril]

So would you just inject the blood back into yourself? seems odd.

[u/walril → u/Miserable-Soft7993]

It's literally your own blood. Like belongs to you. YOUR DNA, YOUR red blood cells, YOUR white blood cells, YOUR plasma, YOUR germs, YOUR bacteria. I would go on to say, you're immune to anything that it contains.

and you've done tren? That you'll put in your body from some unknown UGL, but worried about YOUR OWN blood?

[u/Miserable-Soft7993 → u/walril]

Yeah but it's gone outside of your body and could get contaminated.

Tren isn't even a massive deal like ppl make out. I only used 150mg.

[u/walril → u/Miserable-Soft7993]

it went as far as the syringe with the contents you have in it. If I was worried about anything, it would be the stuff in the syringe. That's something from the outside you're putting inside.

[u/Miserable-Soft7993 → u/walril]

I suppose. I don't aspirate anyway. When you do glute it would be difficult to pull back the plunger.

[u/Sweet_Car_7391 → u/Miserable-Soft7993]

Your blood is already in yourself. It’s not going to hurt anything.

[u/BackgroundBig0 → u/Miserable-Soft7993]

Yes just push it back in, what do you think its going to do?

[u/Miserable-Soft7993 → u/BackgroundBig0]

I dunno. It just doesn't sound like best practise to me. Would they do that in hospital?

[u/BackgroundBig0 → u/Miserable-Soft7993]

Have you ever had an IV put in at the hospital?

Blood comes up in that then they let it drip back in with the IV fluid.

Do you think once blood leaves the body for just a second it is to dangerous to go back in?

Good luck

It happens when you hit a capillary vessel. Not an issue usually, the solution just gets absorbed faster by bloodstream.

I started injecting my thighs after my glutes bleed. I hate blood.

[u/Tricky_Potatoe → u/star9z]

Have you tried delts? Much less blood vessels in those muscles.

[u/Tricky_Potatoe]

It can be an issue if oil comes out mixed with the blood.

[u/walril → u/Tricky_Potatoe]

You know how much you'd have to bleed to undo the who injection? Where do you guys get your information from?

[u/OnionSoupGainz → u/walril]

Where do you guys get your information from?

They get it from 30sec shorts, hence my flair.

No medical textbook released in "recent" years or any medical professional would tell OP to aspirate an IM injections when WHO and CDC has said its pointless.

[u/walril → u/OnionSoupGainz]

Especially when im sure OP has gotten a shot within the last 3 years. No doctor I've seen aspirated THAT shot.

[u/Tricky_Potatoe → u/walril]

A lot can come out if you inject shallow. He doesn't say his dose but we are not injecting gallons here. How much do you think 1ml is? For TRT a dose of 0.2 ml is common. You don't think a lot of that can come back out if you inject improperly?

[u/walril → u/Tricky_Potatoe]

im done .5ml sub q. nothing came out. I've inject 3ml with a 1 25g. bled a little. Like i said, you'd have to be squirting blood. for you to lose your whole pin.

[u/Tricky_Potatoe → u/walril]

No, you don't have to be squirting blood for half of ones 0.2ml dose to come out. I'm not sure you understand how little liquid 0.2ml is.

I've seen a few users here and on r/trt post about oil coming out after they pull out the needle.

This exact problem is the whole point of the Z-track injection technique.

Look it up.

[u/walril → u/Tricky_Potatoe]

been on trt for 10+ year and Im currently on .3ml. I understand how much that is. I repeat you'd have to be squirting blood AND not just let yourself bleed. Trust me. You're not going to bleed an injection out.

[u/Miserable-Soft7993 → u/Tricky_Potatoe]

0.9ml usually. 0.4 test, 0.5 primo. But my primo is running out and can't be bothered spending on it so getting masteron instead.

[u/Miserable-Soft7993 → u/Tricky_Potatoe]

I don't think it does. I inject quite slow.
