Will the trigger injection be painful?
There are various methods of administering the trigger injection. It can both be given into the muscle (intramuscular) or below the skin (subcutaneous), that’s the maximum common route. An intramuscular injection will be similar to getting a vaccine shot at your GP and might cause more bruising than while injecting below the skin.
Women on occasion report redness of the area of subcutaneous injections. It can make the site turn out to be red, inflamed and itchy for a day. However, these side effects post injection are usually minimal.
Potential side effects of a trigger shot
Most women now no longer experience any side effects following the trigger injection. Possibly some transient local irritation on the injection site is seen. At this level of treatment, it is not unusual to have been already experiencing some stomach pain or slight bloating. These are because of the blended impact of the hormones and the growth in the size of the follicles in ovaries. Following the trigger injection, these symptoms may be exaggerated. As this isn’t supposed to be an exhaustive list of side effects, you should not hesitate to seek advice for any new symptoms.
