What Happens If Progesterone Shot Goes Into A Vein?

Hi, I just gave myself a progesterone shot and did not see blood after pulling back on the syringe, but did see blood in syringe after giving myself the shot. Does this mean I hit a vein? What happens if the oily shot went in a vein? I take it for infertility purposes. YYYY@YYYY . Thank you, Susie

Hi;

If there was no blood when you had pulled back on the syringe, you probably did not inject progesterone in any vein.

May you recover soon
