Itchy lumps at injection site

I’ve been on TRT for around 10 weeks now. Test C 125mg sub q twice per week. Mixed with MCT oil.

The first 6 weeks or so were fine. Mild improvement in symptoms and feeling good. No side effects.

After 6 weeks I added HCG as was initially prescribed by the clinic.

From approximately this point I started developing a reaction to the Test C injections. The HCG injections are fine.

I get hard itchy lumps which develop over the course of 1-4 days post injection. They do go away, but they are quite annoying and I usually have 2 at any given point in time.

I feel like they are getting worse/larger. They can cover an area like two 20c coins.

I have tried varying the injection site, but it’s all around my love handles and midsection as that’s where I have almost all of my fat.

I have tried warming the needle and injecting very slowly.

Nothing is helping.

Of course I will reach out to the clinic next, but wanted to get some anecdotal advice first.

Has anyone had this happen?

Am I likely to need to change to a different test, carrier oil or injection method?

Cheers for any advice.
Thanks.
