Best Injection Sites?

Postby rich2222 » Sun Mar 11, 2018 12:10 pm

Would appreciate feedback from members on where they inject to achieve the best results, as I am injecting 3 times a week and want to minimise risk of scarring etc.

I have seen advice on the Web which ranges enormously:
a) from 1 o’clock to 5 o’clock (and 11 o’clock to 7 o’clock)
b) from where the base of the penis meets the body to just below the glans.

At the other end of the scale, the recommendation is as simple as alternating left 9 o’clock and right 3 o’clock at mid shaft.

If there is already a thread that covers this, please post the link.

There have been a fair number of threads on this subject as well as topics on other commonly asked questions. Unfortunately no one has ever collated all of the threads and posts into informational "Stickies" that would be readily available to new members. Neither the administrator or moderator appear to have an interest in this. As a result there is no one thread to search out. You'll have to do a search{s} and then peruse the multiple hits you get.

I'm not a medical professional of any type. Always ask your doctor and defer to his/her advice.

This is my experience:
Length wise, I inject anywhere from about an inch from the base to 1/2" to 3/4" from the glans. I actually find that too close to the base is more painful than too close to the glans. The depth of injection will have to varied depending on where. I always use plunger resistance to determine depth.

I will generally do the 3 - 9 or 2 - 10 with the 2 - 10 being the most common. I have experimented with 4- 8 and it worked just fine too, although it seemed more difficult to get the correct angle, coordination wise. When looking at a cross sectional diagram of the penis, it seems to me that any of those placements should work if you have the needle angled at the right spot. However, for me angling the needle up, when doing a 4 -8, isn't intuitive.

I hope that helps.

Although IMHO it's far from perfect this is the best video I know of that meets your specifications: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_n2vsEBphPc

I had scarring from the injections and peyronies. Doc said to avoid this By ALWAYS put pressure on injection site immediately after and for at least 5 minutes to stop any internal bleeding before engorging with blood for erection. Good luck!

I suppose there may be other places, but I like to try to never inject directly at the top or at the 3 and 9 positions. Maybe I'm too cautious, but I think it could be bad to inject at the 12 o-clock position.
I inject from mid point to around an inch from the glans.
I realize when really flaccid, that's a small target, but I like to plump up a little if possible.
The main thing is to watch out for visible veins.
Also, if hitting the urethra, I never have any luck.

Fear of scarring makes us overthink this issue a lot. The only thing you can do is alternate sides and move around to different areas along the sides of the penis. Most of us are fairly small when flaccid, so there's obviously not a real estate to choose from. I beleive alternating sides is as important as choosing different sites to inject.
I've tried everything -- pills, injections pumps -- and now I am at the final frontier.
