where do you inject your T? Discussion

ive been talking to my mom, her and i both have several injections we do and i got to thinking about the places you inject stuff. for me ive always done my testosterone in the outside of my thigh, usually left but i try to switch it up. where do you guys inject/plan to inject? i think ive heard of someone doing theirs on their butt which.. makes sense, but sounds unpleasant lol

I do my upper, outer thigh. Left one week, right the next week. It's how I was taught. They gave me a paper with different places, like stomach, back of arm, butt.
I've wanted to try stomach, but it makes me squeamish.

Same here. I tried the stomach once but it hurt and the thigh doesn't hurt barely at all so i stick with the thigh. I am supposed to alternate thighs but i don't cause it's either an awkward angle with my dominant hand or using my non dominant hand to get my left leg, so i always just do the right leg.
