Hi Sam101. I must say, that I haven’t heard of many women using the subcutaneous version of progesterone (Lubion). I do know that is can sometimes be prescribed if there are any issues with the vaginal versions (pessaries & gel), and sometimes for religious preferences. I have heard that it can cause soreness at the injection site, and sore breasts. Also, success results appear to be about the same whether injected or vaginally administered, according to a few studies I have read. Wishing you well with it all.  Diane
