I wrote on earlier topics of how I am involved with my husband's steriod use. I would rather help him with it and monitor what is going on than have it done behind my back. He is in the second week of his first cycle and last night I gave him his injection!!!!UGH!!!!!!!!!! I was a nervous wreck because I do not want to hurt him. He said it didn't hurt at all. He laid down flat while getting the injection in the glutes. Is this as effective and will it hit the muscle there? Please give me advice on this guys and help me out!!!!

I think you should make your husband do it himself. if you cant inject your self them your not ready for the sauce. and he is missing out on all the fun of doing it. i cant wait till later today when i get to. Anyway the glute works well with a 1 1/2 inch needle as long as he doesnt have a really fat ass.

For now I am not strong enough to pick him up off the bathroom floor when he passes out. So for now I will give him the injections. I at least want it done right. I just want some feed back and help on doing this.

hi there,
i'm a paramedic, so i've done a lot of needle work, some of it on myself.
a couple of things i can tell you are:

*it really doesn't hurt a bit, it just a 'lil
unplesent.
*the glutes are a o.k. place to get the needle, just try to be relaxed, talking to your victim might help.
make sure your doing a clean work,tones of alcohol.
and allways make sure your not making some blood vessel very happy.

bstrong, I think it might help if we didn't refer to TexasGuns' husband as "the victim" :-)

Sounds to me as though you're doin just fine TG. Give it a few more times and just like anything else it will be second nature to you and you will be an expert at it.

Rock On!

Just make sure you stay to the upper-outside of the glutes. You do not want to hit the sciatic nerve which runs toward the middle of the glutes.

Laying down or standing up, either one is fine, just as long as you use a good 1.5in pin and shoot the upper outer quadrant of the arse.

Texas i think it's great that you do this for your hubby. I used to have a girl who did it, damn i miss that.

If you're nervous about shooting him, this sounds strange but practice on the couch, everyone who shoots me first shoots my couch a good 10 times just to get it right.

It's not a big deal, and it really doens't hurt that much,, depending on what you're shooting.

Have fun!

OUCH!! I watched his first injection being done so that kind of helped and I did practice on an orange a few times. I was shaking like a leaf and it seemed like forever finishing up the injections because the juice was so thick. Is this always the case or was I doing something wrong? What's even funnier is that he was talking ME through it, telling me to breathe and just relax. Where exactly is this nerve in the glutes that I do not want to hit? Is it more painful in the upper/outer portion of the glute? Thanks for all the help. Keep it coming!!!!!

The nerve..sciatic...sp. ? Is closer to the crack, and a little on the low side. It's great that your helping, willing to learn, and not giving up. When you inject...do it slow, let the oil go in easy. Massage the area, give hugs....maybe kiss the boo-boo....heh heh! Just kidd'in....Hang in there, your doing fine

your man should know where to shoot. there was a post that had a link not too long about that gave you pictures of where to shoot. so look back at some of the old ones and you might be able to find it. what i do is to mentaly picture the gluts in 1/4's. you want to hit the outter/upper area. the nerve you want to miss runs down the center or close to it.

good luck TG

All I can say is.....God Bless You Woman!
My fiance' refuses to have anything to do with AS, and as far as she knows I decided not to cycle. I hate the fact that I have to lie to her, but some things alot of women just dont understand, partially due to urban folklore and media hype, that goes for others also, not just women. I really wish I could be honest with her, but thats that, so way to be a team player little gipper...lol

Standing up will not hurt as bad as if he were to lie down. When you stand up the glutes lie closer to the layer of fatty tissue, therefore the injection will not have to be as deep, nor painful. Good Luck! longliveDanDuchaine!!!!!

Good for you,my wife does'nt even have a clue that i inject(sorry my mate injects).
As you progress it will be easier.
My mates 1st time was OK,he was more nervous then me.But all is OK.

I could never do it myself.
If only more women were open minded as you,good luck for future .You sound as though you dont need it.
The glutes are most comfortable place.
just keep to the outer,as everyone else advizes.

Thanks for all the encouragement. It would be nice if more women were involved and took the time to understand. If something is that important to the person you love, then it should be important enough for you to research and look into. Take heart though that the wives that do not approve are just concerned for your health and safety. They want to keep you around as much as possible. It took me some time to deal with the fact, but we discussed using AS and did lots of research long before we started this first cycle. I myself am starting out with some T# and clen. Not as powerful as the other stuff most of you take, but still a huge step for me. Best of luck to all of you and thanks for your replies!!!!!
