Any Issues in Using 1/2 Iinch Needle to Inject Quad?

I’m fairly lean. I have quite a bit of 30g, 1/2 inch insulin needles.

Just wondering if I can pin quads with these? 1/2 seems deep enough.

Thoughts?

I mean if it doesnt reach the muscle its just a subq injection.

Kinda what I was thinking.

It will reach the muscle though as I’m pretty lean on my legs and I have decent size. It just won’t be as deep as the 1inch I generally use.

Probably won’t make a difference. Just wondered what some more experienced trt guys thought.

Im not but just throwing that out there :wink:

I use 27 gauge 1/2” for trt, often injecting quads. Works great. I use 1/2” needles for everywhere except glutes.

do you aspirate when using 1/2" for quads?

I never aspirate regardless of where I inject.

I never aspirate either.
