I started the follicle stimulating injections last night. I am used to doing the lupron injections with tiny needles and the follistim injections from last time that came in the pen but neither prepared me for the needle that was used for the menopur shot last night. It pretty much is the same needle used for progesterone. Here’s the thing, I don’t see the progesterone shot going in....
