Thread: Needle gauge

is there much difference in using a 23G pin to a 25G pin Pain wise or PIP, apart from it been harder to push the oil through.

25g definitely goes in smoother but I personally find a little more PIP with 25g vs 23g using oil. It may be that Im pushing in too hard, idk but yes, for me its hard to push oil thru. I could probably warm it up a little for a smoother process but I just go with the 23g with oil. Lots of guys like 25g. Just my personal exp here.

Big difference in draw and inject time between the two. Interestingly enough, a 29 gives me the fastest inject time if back filled.

I use 25 for delts and quads, 23 for glutes. I always warm the oil, makes a big difference for smooth pin and I find less pip then if injected cold/room temp.

I started with 23 but switched or to 25ga I draw my Test and NPP into the same syringe with the 25 and than pin my gluteus and goes nice and easy for me. I have never had to warm oils up or anything plus it leaves a smaller hole in my ass

personally i feel like the 25 gives me more PIP. takes so much longer to push i feel like the needle ends up doing more tissue damage because its in there longer and moving around as I struggle to push the oil in. I've never heated up the oil. Maybe that would make a difference. How do you guys that heat the oil up b4 pinning do it?
