HRT, help wanted 

Posting this on behalf of a close diene dof mine who’s taking a break from fedi but needs help.

I recently noticed that my subcutaneous EV injection sites are forming hard lumps under the skin, and the site itself is frequently itchy. There's no pain or redness, but the lumps have lasted for weeks. Everything I've read suggested that the site should clear up within hours. Has anyone else experienced this, and should I be alarmed?

More information, based off of the comments received

I rotate between 4 different injection sites, and since I inject every 5 days, that means 20 days between each shot in the same spot. I could be going too shallow, since I use a 3/8" needle at 45°. Allergy is also possible. Is that something I could test?

@puppygirlhornypost2 I would try a 5/8ths needle, and make sure all the isopropyl is dried before injection first. Although could be that its a carrier oil allergy, if you can't go to an allergist switching to the brand depo estradiol would remedy an allergy cause it uses a different carrier oil. I will say that the bumps last for a couple days on average not hours.
