So I bought a 10ml vial of 250mg/ml enanthate from a supplier I have used before but only ever as a secondary one.
I use it at a rate of 120-160mg per week (one shot of .55 to .65ml, basically).
I recall right from the beginning it was irritating to my quad muscle. I've used variations of that location and the 18 and 25g needles for a decade.
I attributed that at first to the higher mg/ml vs my previous 200mg/ml, and to it being a generic UL brand,
However in hindsight, I have a house guest and a tight schedule and I was not as free to carry the vial around, to the wipe of the lid and the injection site.
I also started with HCG and HGH for October and November, doing it as an added substance in the IM injection rather than using a separate insulin type syringe. So it thinking there, I've tripled my opportunity to contaminate. Plus I have switched to all vials being un-refrigerated. Also I was able to see a cloudy "line" as a half spiral in the liquid. It's never been outside of my secure, but room temp storage. I have to assume this is naturally occurring microbes.
From the 3rd and 4th shots it created a hot, red sore point about 2-2.5" in diameter. I no longer feel comfortable injecting from this vial.

What I'm asking is.... if there's a "non skin break" way to not waste it, as I'm not in the US and this makes it more expensive, and, I am looking for work with my finances very, very tight.
Can at least some of it be absorbed through any type of non skin break? Half a dozen years ago I started TRT with the under arm wipe, so unless there was a specific chemical used to make it more absorbable, the molecule had to be trans-dermally passable.
So can I temporarily wipe enanthate on my scrotum perianal region and/or biceps/delts? Any point to this? I'm not asking for it to be a long term thing, re: esterization rate and so on, just for a basic elimination of the feeling I've stopped cold Turkey for 3 to 5 weeks.
And if so, is there any rough rule of thumb such as wipe on 2x as much as IM, so just over a ml?
I should be back to work in the New Year, but between now and then I have interviews and ... a partner with time off, and badly want my libido and sense of well being to not drop off.
My alternative is to go back to the HCG and HGH as a bridge, and toss this vial, but I know that won't be as good.
