    Attention! after penetration - before injection you need to aspirate by negative pressure. if there is no blood you can inject the medicine inside muscle.

    Please could you explain about the decision not to aspirate? For me this is the biggest problem with self-injecting - if I aspirate like most informational videos state, then the additional "fiddling" leads to more muscle pain in the injection site. If I don't have to aspirate, that's very good news for my next run of 8 weeks(!) of self-administered injections! But I'd like to understand what risks I might be taking.

The areas you are supposed to inject in will not have any major blood vessels, and aspiration makes the injection more painful with no science backed reason to do it.
