scars from Progesterone oil shots

Post by sugarmama »

Hi,just wondering if anyone has had, or heard anything, about the Progesterone oil shots leaving scars or bumps on the surface of the skin from the oil gathering and not going away?
Thanks!!!

Hi Sugarmama

I have been having the Progesterone oil shots daily since 31st Oct (I'm 8 days into my two week wait). I don't seem to be developing scars on the skin although I can now feel a hard lump forming in the areas where the injections go (my Butt!) and I was told to expect this as the oil does gather. I am starting to get visible bruises now though and there is more blood each time after the injection. It is getting sore but a small price to pay if it results in a BFP. I hope this helps. Are you taking the shots?
