I'm new to this site and just went thru 1st IVF cycle, transferred 2 embryos, will find out our results on 12/28. Good luck to you. When we first started, my hubby gave me the shots in the hip, have found that if you numb it a bit with ice before injection and then sit on a heating pad, will reduce discomfort significantly. Now on nightly injection of progesterone, I have found giving myself the shot in the thigh is so much better and NO discomfort at all- no swelling, bruising etc. Although I've only been through IVF once, I'm here for any questions. Stay relaxed and positive.
