has anyone injected ovidrel in the back of the thigh and had success?

I have been reading that ovidrel is used in the stomach, or in the front of thigh, my nurse just told me in the thigh so I injected in the back of the thigh.  Now I am worried that my second try with IUI was useless, anyone ever injected this way and success?

Gosh Jessica, I really don't know.  I've only ever used it in my lower stomach, and got to beautiful babies from that.  You should just contact your clinic to get peace of mind.  It's bad enough to get a negative, but to get one and worry you had some part in it is a real pain!!

Good luck to you!!  I had my IUI this morning:0)  Marietta
