We have just done 3rd gonal f injection and so far every one has been excruciating. We’ve already had a month of buserelin every morning and while they aren’t pleasant, there’s been nothing more than discomfort, whereas these are hurting so much I actually have tears in my eyes.
I barely feel the needle going in (husband is injecting me), and it’s fine for a few seconds, but then in the ‘hold it in and count to 10’ it’s unbearable.
Is this the same for everyone? Any tips on how to deal with it?

I agree, I don’t think you need to hold it in at the end, maybe a 1 second pause after you have pressed all the liquid in.
You could also try doing it yourself so you have more control. I did all of mine myself over 6 rounds, but I let my husband do a couple and they always hurt the most when he did it x
