We get asked this question a lot. There’s a few places that you can inject, it’s up to you where you choose. Areas you can inject are:
- Upper arms
- Tummy/abdomen (3-5cm away from your belly button)
- Upper legs (front of thighs)
We tend to find the tummy region is easiest. Pinch the area between your thumb and fingers then with the other hand, inject into the area you’re holding. It is recommended you rotate the injection site by at least 3cm every time to avoid injecting into the same area repeatedly. For example, if injecting into your upper arm, the first injection site may be regarded as 12 o'clock. Next time, shift the injection site down and to the right, as if it is 3 o’clock, and the subsequent injection would be at 6 o’clock, and so on. If you’re injecting into your tummy, do one side one week and switch to the other side the next.
