- Never re-inject. Hardening from the previous injection will almost certainly cause leakage, the main risk to avoid with CaCl2.
- Be patient, good results take a minimum of six weeks from everyone I know and have heard from. It was four months for my T factory to shut down forever, then continued hardening and atrophy since then as all of it dies off and it reaches the 'small rock' stage. That took until 9 months to fully harden, and the remnant is still gradually shrinking.
- My personal take is that 1.0 to 1.3ml is the ideal range, and while I know people who have done it safely with up to 1.5ml, I don't think it's a good idea for no benefit. You would do better to find a stronger pre-mixed solution if you're impatient or are worried about certainty. I used 1.1ml of 32% solution in purified water (for cheesemaking) which 100% did the job, but I also know that some people have used up to 60% solution which slams all function to a halt. But remember - volume above 1.0ml increases risk of spillage, higher percentages increase aggressiveness of effects.
- Lightly tie the ball off to keep it close to the skin of the scrotum, then inject very slowly (no less than 20 seconds - count it off). If it were to leak when you withdraw the needle, it's likely to follow the hole straight to the surface where it can be wiped off, rather than potentially entering the scrotum. You can also hold a tissue or towel against the side of the needle so it will wick away extra.
- You may find it helpful to gently masturbate about 20min after smoothly removing the needle and putting on a band-aid. This will distribute the solution around the ball, and in my experience, seemed to give more even damage.
- I do recommend injecting saline several times before you go ahead with CaCl - until you can get 3-5ml of saline in, to help stretch the capsule and increase your safety. But you can't compare directly. I was able to work up to 30ml or so of saline in my right ball a year before using CaCl (ended up trying to push too much saline and broke the capsule, but luckily the tear was small and it healed). But with saline, you might easily work up to injecting 20ml or more - which hurts nothing if it spills back out. But you would never want to inject more than 1.5ml of CaCl because of the damage it can do if it spills. The capsule of the testicle is basically impervious to it - but your other tissues aren't and could end up getting eaten away if it leaked out, and that way is alllll bad:(
