In case this is helpful to anyone, Planned Parenthood has a PDF guide on both intramuscular (IM) & subcutaneous (subQ) injections for gender-affirming care:
There are also some great video guides here by healthcare provider Plume:

I'm injecting #EstradiolValerate via #subcutaneous #injection in my belly with a 27g needle.
Sometimes some of the EV leaks out when I pull the needle.
Is there anything I can do to prevent that?
I already leave the needle in for 10-15 secs after the plunger hits the bottom.
Subq Injection with #Neofollin (which is the EV i use) is very slow because it's EV in oil.
