Curious: Good advice from Budward but I'll add a few remarks. I've never tried auto-injectors because I want to be in control. I use 5/16 needles in most places because 1/2 have gone right through a corpus. Once I hit the urethra too and got blood out the pee-hole, but it's harmless, just a little alarming.

I think 5/16 are good for thin penises and 1/2 are for thick ones. So to tell whether you're in the corpus, two conditions must be met: No resistance when pushing the plunger, any more than if the needle were in air, AND no or very little pain when the liquid comes out of the needle. If these are not met, you could pull the needle out a little and try pushing the plunger again, or maybe it's not in far enough so push it in more. When you can't figure it out, pull out and try another spot.

Injecting's a little tricky, but you'll get it.

"1/2 have gone right through a corpus"! That doesn't sound good and hitting the urethra either.

So I'm trying to figure out how this injecting process is gonna fit in with love making. Say we are going through foreplay, getting all hot and bothered and now I have to say "excuse me". I have to go do something. Then I get the syringe. Alcohol wipe my penis. Do the injection. Wipe again. Hold pressure for 5 minutes. Yell out "I'll be back in a couple minutes"! Meanwhile, she's either taking care of business herself or getting impatient and giving up.

I'm sure I'll get it figured out.

You get set up inject before foreplay .. shots never really worked for me but when we tried we did it like that ..most guys say the get an erection for an hour to 3 hrs so it's not like your going to run out of time ..

Yes, Amazon has plenty of syringes and maybe they'll ship to Virginia, no questions asked, hopefully. Our friend bldolnk says EasyTouch brand is the best, made in Korea, and he's right - very smooth plunger start.

I like the 31-gauge needles because they're thin enough for me to get between first- and second-layer skin nerves and get a painless injection. When starting, I walk the needle around until I feel no prick, then very slowly push in. If I hit a nerve in the second skin layer, I pull out and begin again. The tunica or corpus casing has no pain nerves, so pushing through it has no sensation.

So my wife and I negotiate our sex time ahead of time and she's used to waiting maybe 20 minutes for me to inject, because I go slowly. If you want to be impromptu, preload a syringe and keep it in the refrigerator. And you don't have to hold your shaft for five minutes - just squeeze and pump the entire shaft 6-8 times because the two corpora have a few fluid connections through which some Trimix can be pumped into the other corpus. This helps to insure a straight-ahead erection.

I have to disagree with Budward on one point: I've injected for eight years and have never frozen any Trimix. Several FT guys keep it frozen, but I don't see the need, especially if you're in a hurry.
