Ivf injections burn

Hello, I am doing the ivf long protocol . Today was my 4th day of the decapeptyl 0.1 mg injections in the thigh .

I have been icing and using alternative thoughts for each thigh but have noticed minor bruising . Is that normal ?

Also the needle insertion itself doesn’t hurt but over the four days I have noticed the medicine stings and burns more while it goes through . Any recommendations for that . Does applying numbing cream help with the burning sensation or no?

I have been using ice packs before and after injections . Any recommendations would be super helpful to get over the next four weeks for injections . Thanks so much and please pray for my miracle baby and to be a mother finally . Thanks so much!
