Community Education – Medical (Self) Injection

January 17 @ 5:00 pm - 7:30 pm

This session teaches how to draw up and (self) administer injection medications like HRT. It will cover the how’s and why’s of standard procedure; myths and misconceptions; relevant anatomy; storage and safe disposal of medication and equipment. There will be lots of time for hands on practice. 

Needlephobe friendly! Sharps will be out of sight, you will be given a warning before anything is moved to the open. I can also provide space and exercises for exposure therapy and desensitization.

Everyone welcome, whether you want to learn for yourself or to support someone else.

Please note: this session covers medical procedure, not kink/play. Play, or discussion thereof, is not appropriate for this event.
