GLP-1 Injection Site Matters?

Lurking a couple months but wanted to say my piece. Used Hallandale and AmoPure, no pain. Upped to 5mg and got an ISR with both. Split the dose across two sites and no ISR.
 
With long-term injections ahead, might be smart to have antibiotic tabs on standby if site starts looking infected. Better to address it early than let it escalate.
 
lost tons of hair but it's slowly growing back since i stopped. taking collagen peptides, not sure if that or my body recovering from the loss. hairdresser said expect 6 months before you see new growth. whispy hairs coming in.
 
peps aren't sterile and you should plan around that. injection site reactions usually come from moldy or unclean peps. gray market stuff isn't pharmacy grade. good news—PES filters make them completely safe. i have zero hesitation with filtered vials.
 
Got 1ml with 30ga needles, 3ml with 23ga for mixing. friend started 2mg and was miserable, another was fine on 2mg. i went 1mg to split the difference based on past experience. day 2, no issues, no reaction at site, sticking w/ this.
 
I use a 31g 6mm needle with a 100-unit syringe. Pull 60 units for my dose. The needle's long enough to get it from the pen, and honestly I barely feel it going in.
