Trigger Shot

Hi, does anyone know if it matters if the trigger shot is injected with the needle all the way in or is halfway in okay? needle is 2inches long.

I've been having a friend help me with the shot because my husband can't handle sticking me with a needle and it's in a spot I can't reach well. we are a week away from my 4th <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IUI</a> and she asked if it matters because she's only been pushing it in about half way. And I never thought to check the next day with a test to see if it was in my system or not.

needle needs to go all the way in so it gets in the muscle where it belongs. if you put it in halfway, it won't go all the way in the muscle

your shot is not her shot. they would not put a 2 inch needle on a syringe if it was a sub Q injection.

you should be fine actually. its a subcutaneous injection, not intramuscular (mine is at least) as long as its under the skin youll be fine. you can take a hpt a day after you inject if you want to be sure its in your system.
