I am on progesterone shots until probably the ninth week of pregnancy. My hubbie hit is blood vessel I think last night. Wanted to know if this was a problem. If it is what should I do with tonights shot. My RE office is closed for Thanksgiving.

When we did my progesterone injections we were told to inject the needle then pull back a little checking for blood. Not by pulling the needle out but by pulling on the syringe (like your drawing blood) to check for blood. If you see any blood then take syringe out change needle and try again. Hopefully I explained this so you understand. Good Luck. :)

Don't worry about hitting a blood vessel this time. The med just got into your bloodstream faster rather than absorbing through the muscle. But, like Angela said, try pulling back and checking for blood before plunging on in.

Shouldnt be too bad, most likely it was a small capillary or vein. Probably your biggest worry will just be a bruise, which wont matter because it hurts anyway from the shots themselves! I agree with Angela, you need to pull back on the syringe to check for blood. And do it on the other side tonite! Good luck

The same thing happend to me on friday. My husband hit something, blood was running down my leg and then I was very sore, the spot was red, swollen and I could barely walk. Nothing to worry about! By today (sunday) it is not as sore anymore; it just happens, use your other hip!
