[quote=Anonymous]There are injection services available (ask your clinic for references), but I agree with the other PPs that the subcutaneous shots are really no big deal, and I was pretty needle-phobic when I started dealing with IVF. The needles really don't hurt, and of the three medications I was on (Menopur, Ganirelix, and Gonal F), only the Menopur stung just a tiny bit, and you can decrease that burn by icing the injection site first and injecting slowly. It will be a huge hassle and extra expense to have a nurse showing up once or twice a day every day for 10-14 days to do these injections for you. The only one that I would have considered that for was the HCG trigger that is IM, and that would be more out of fear of hitting a nerve than anything else.[/quote]
