Where to inject MOTS-c?

FDA's 2026 review found no published human exposure data for compounded MOTS-c by any route, so no trial can establish a compound-specific injection site. Community site claims are unverified. If the question is about a research vial used subcutaneously, the anatomy is still the same four sites: abdomen at least two inches from the navel, outer thigh, back of the upper arm, and upper outer buttock. That is not a finding about MOTS-c. This is not a dose or a protocol. Full walkthrough at /injecting. Profile at /compounds/mots-c.

Educational use only. This database summarizes published research and is not medical advice. Where a dose appears it is a record of what a trial or clinic ran, or what people describe doing, with its source attached. Nothing here is a recommendation for personal use.

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.
