for newbies who don't know what I.U., ml, mg, cc etc. means.. NEWBIES!!!

Alright. I have seen way too many stupid posts about people messing up iu and ml and mg and cc and all this shit.. I'm going to give a simple math/chemistry lesson for the less indulged.....

i.u. = international unit. It is a standard measurment that has no relation to ml, mg, cc, or anything!!!!!

ml = milliliter. This is a VOLUME measurement. it is 1/1000 of a liter. if it is water or oil, it is one cc (cubic centimeter) of fluid.

cc = cubic centimeter. This is a VOLUME measurement. Most syringes measure their capacity in cc's. If you have a 5cc syringe, it will hold 5ml of shit in it.

mg = milligram. This is a WEIGHT measurement. It is 1/1000 of a gram. the amount of steroid you actually get is measured in milligrams. They will give you a concentration of weight to volume, or mg/ml if it is an injectable steroid, or if you are taking pills, they are just measured in mg of actual steroid. Volume doesnt matter with pills.

i.u. can not be converted to mg, ml, cc, or anything else.
ml and cc are basically the same thing.

A quick lesson on different solutions.

Say we have some Deca from two different companies. One is Deca 300 from QV, and one from BM which is DecaDubol 100. Both of these are Nandrolone Decanoate, but they have different concentrations! Here is an explanation:

for the QV Deca 300:
if you take 1 ml (one milliliter) of this solution, it will take up 1cc (one cubic centimeter) of space in the syringe. There will be 300mg (three hundred milligrams) of Deca in this dosage.

for the DecaDubol 100:
if you take 1 ml (one milliliter) of this solution, it will take up 1cc (one cubic centimeter) of space in the syringe. There will be 100mg (one hundred milligrams) of Deca in this dosage.

What is the difference? the QV Deca 300 has a concentration of 300mg/ml, while the DecaDubol only has a concentration of 100mg/ml, although they are the same drug. Always pay attention to what concentration your juice is!!!!

and you may think to yourself, "so you are saying that I can get the same amount of drug in half the amount of shit that I inject?".. the answer is YESSSSSSS you bumbling fool.. don't you understand what I just wrote!?

on to subject #2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For things that are measured in I.U. (international units)
if you have something such as HGH or HCG, these come in measurements of i.u.'s. For example, Organon makes HCG under the brand pregnyl in 1500i.u. and 5000i.u. concentrations. This shit is a low volume powder, and it is much easier to report measurements as a standard i.u. instead of something such as fractions of a milligram. Here is an example on how to measure out your shit which is shipped with i.u. values.

You have a 1500i.u. vial of HCG. You have 5ml of BAC water that you want to reconstitute your powder with. You are trying to figure out the concentration once you mix these two together. I know some of you suck with math, as per the threads i saw today where people thought that 1500/250 = 60... please get a calculator if you do not know how to divide. Click on the start button, goto run, and type calc in the box, and click ok. It will load up a calculator! Now all of you can do this with me!!!!

we take our 1500i.u. hcg powder, and mix it with 3ml of BAC water. This means, you take 1500 and divide it by 3. Do this by typing 1500 into calc, and then hitting the divide button, then hit 3, and then hit the = sign. This will report back to you 500. This means that there is 500i.u. in each and every one of your milliliters of mixed solution!!! That means you can then inject 1 milliliter of your solution to get 500i.u. of HCG!!!

Apply these simple rules to your every day life, and you will not fail!!!
 
and don't ever forget than an american pint is smaller than a british pint. In case you are in a bar... in the UK.. and it happens to come up in conversation. :)
 
lol

Good post, eviction.

However, it is interesting to note that 1cc of water has a mass of 1g. Therefore, for water, mass and volume units are interchangable.

Now think long and hard about that, you Newbie bastards!

How many mg's is in this bottle of test I have here :D?

i dunno, my friend's mom's sister said that there is 400mg in every 3rd i.u.

that is because the metric standard was based on water! it is only true for substances which have an identical density to water.
 
Thanks, Eviction. This is great stuff. Maybe you could cut and paste it onto the PCT sticky so this info won't go anywhere...
 
Should be a sticky. I have gotten a lot of PM's on this! Everyone screws up their HCG and GH if they don't ask.
Great Post!! Karma for you!

Great post. I love the way you broke it down so even a six year old could understand. lol

oh no! now if you see some jacked up 6 yr olds, its my fault cuz i taught them how to measure their GH doses!

Damn I always thought i.u stood for insulin unit.
You learn something new every day.

some more info on IU

international unit (IU)
a unit used to measure the activity (that is, the effect) of many vitamins and drugs. For each substance to which this unit applies, there is an international agreement specifying the biological effect expected with a dose of 1 IU. Other quantities of the substance are then expressed as multiples of this standard. Examples: 1 IU represents 45.5 micrograms of a standard preparation of insulin or 0.6 microgram of a standard preparation of penicillin. Consumers most often see IU's on the labels of vitamin packages: in standard preparations the equivalent of 1 IU is 0.3 microgram (0.0003 mg) for vitamin A, 50 micrograms (0.05 mg) for vitamin C, 25 nanograms (0.000 025 mg) for vitamin D, and 2/3 milligram for (natural) vitamin E. Please note: for many substances there is no definite conversion between international units and mass units (such as milligrams). This is because preparations of those substances vary in activity, so that the effect per milligram of one preparation is different from that of another.
 
One of the most common mistakes I see are people getting "units" (i.e. marks on an insulin syringe) confused with IU's. For example, you may mix 5 mg's of HGH with 3 ml of water to make 1.666 mg/ml hgh solution. Let's say you want to take 2 IU's (0.66 mg's). You'd draw the insuling syringe back to 40 units to get 2 IU's of HGH.

Bottom line, IU's of a drug and "units" on an insulin syringe are two different things unless you are specifically taking about a standard insulin preperation.

P.S. mg's isn't a measurement of WEIGHT -- weight is a force. The mg's measurement describes mass ;-)
 
This is a good post and I sure with there were a bunch of these type stickies to read so when I first joined I could of gotten this all down and not started out with........"hi guys, newbie noob here.....what is gear?" I am so ashamed.

:locked:

Didn't we learn this in grade 10 science? come on people!

Oh well, I guess it needs to be said again.

The only thing I remember about the 10th grade were Suzy Jenkins boobies, and I think they were about 250 cc's. So yeah I guess I did learn this in the 10th grade. :D
 
this post agaaaaaain??????????????????????? I've seen it more than 10 times here for real. I even copied it to put in on another boards back then. oh well i hope people save this into their hard drive to review it later when ever they have a question about it. like i said before it's really good info !!!

good post though.
 
So is it wrong that i just injected 10ml p/cc of sust250iu's into my bicept?
Help me out guys? OH! by the way what does aspirate mean? does it have something to do with Pcd
 
oh, one more question,

Can I drink winny?

noooo, only hcg snort the powder drink the other bottle best way lol

Ookaayy.

Uh, does anyone know how to convert mmol/ml to mg/dl for blood glucose?
 
Bump.... Unstuck
 
WHy do I have to read this over and over and over again? I swear, this math crap gives me a migraine. Heaven help me if I ever want to place an order! LOL I know it's not that hard but damm I hate it.
 
Bump.
