Where do you inject peptides?

There are four spots with enough fat under the skin for a shot under the skin: the belly at least two inches from the belly button, the outer thigh, the back of the upper arm, and the upper outer buttock. The belly and outer thigh are the two most people can reach and see without help. Rotate spots instead of reusing one. Skip skin that is bruised, hard, red, or broken.

Part of injecting: sites, needles and safety. Subcutaneous vs intramuscular, site rotation, lipohypertrophy, needle length and gauge, vial hygiene at injection time, travel syringes, scar tissue, and when to stop and see a clinician. Full walkthrough at /injecting.
