That is pretty typical with progesterone in oil shots. You should be fine if it was just a little bit. Next time, warm your injection site with a warm washcloth, inject the liquid at a rate that will allow for it to absorb (that stuff is thick) and then put a warm washcloth back on it afterwards to help the oil get absorbed. This is what my RE nurse told us to do.

Good luck and SSBD!!!
