menopur question

how long can I let it sit before injecting?  is 5-10 minutes too long?  I know you cant premix it too far in advance.  Sorry if its a dumb question - i just feel like everything in this is so sensitive

    My nurse told me it should be injected within 15 minutes of reconstituting - hope this helps!

    I was actually wondering this too! Last night I did my first injection, and because I was nervous it was probably a good five minutes before I got up the nerve to stick myself! It didn't burn. Today, I let it sit for maybe only a minute and it did burn a little...

    I was told to inject in withint 10-15 minutes of mixing it- I always just mixed it and injuected it- I never let my sit.

    It does burn a little, but other then that I didnt think it was too bad.
