A member asked:
My husband gave me an injection of makena (a progesterone shot) a two weeks ago. it's been really sore and last week i noticed a lump. is this normal?

Weekly shots: Makena is designed to be given weekly. If your last shot was two weeks ago then this concerns me that you may be missing them. Have your obgyn examine the injections site. Also consider having your obgyn train you husband to make sure he is giving the injections appropriately
