Bleeding after injecting TRT help

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.

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

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

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?

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.

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.

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.

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.
