Fertility Injections - Dosage and How to Use

How should Fertility Injections be used?

  • Do not stop using your medications without checking with your healthcare professional.
  • You are advised to inject the medication according to your treatment schedule and doctor's instructions. Do not change the doses of your injection by yourself.
  • Fertility injections are usually given just under the skin (subcutaneously). You will be taught how to inject the medication by your doctor or nurse.
  • It is advisable to rotate the injection sites to reduce skin irritation. Do not inject into any areas in which you feel lumps, firm knots, depressions (where a portion of the skin seems to sink in), pain, or see any discolourations.

What should I do if I miss a dose?

​If you forget to inject a dose, contact your nurse or doctor immediately for advice. Do not inject two doses to make up for the missed dose.
