Guest guest Posted December 13, 2007 Report Share Posted December 13, 2007 I receive 4 monthly injections. the Hormone takes 4 minutes to inject carried in Castor oil. Lasts well. No sutures, no messy gel. I got a nasty chemical burn from the use of patches; went through a large number of layers of skin and took 3 months to heal.
