Follistim, Where did you inject?

I am trying to find out if anyone injected their Follistim anywhere other then the belly. If anyone has other then the belly I would love to know.

Thank you all

Mine was a mix of follistim and repronex into the belly, subcutaneous injection.

I took Gonal-f instead of Follistim, but my RE said to do it in the arm or thigh for better absorption, and not in the belly, so I took mine in the thigh. But looks like all offices are different.

Thanks Ladies, My nurse has kept me waiting 3 weeks now while she checks to see if I can give the follistim in the thigh. I want to do it for the same reason you did jharris for absorbtion. I carry alot of weight in my belly and I fear it won't absorb as well there.

I was too chicken to do mine in the belly so all of my shots have gone in the thigh (except for the IM shots in my hip). It wasn't bad at all. In fact, it was where my doctor suggested we do them
