Help! did I mess up my Ovidrel shot?

So I just gave myself the Ovidrel shot but I did not allow it to adjust to room temperature after I took it out of the fridge. Is that really bad? This is the third time I'm doing this shot and I got complacent and completely forgot the instruction about letting it adjust.

  • Hmmm...I've always thought it was just supposed to warm up a bit so it hurt less, I've never heard that the temp of it mattered for its effectiveness.

  • I think you are golden.  They tell you to bring it to room temp so that it does not hurt as much.

    This. I've never heard that it's supposed to be at room temperature.

  • I always did mine right out of the fridge.  You should be fine.  :)
  • Same here, all of mine were straight from the fridge.  I'm sure you'll be fine - my Ovidrel shot salways worked the way they were supposed to!
  • Thanks ladies, I feel so relieved. I noticed it did sting a little going in this time so you must be right about it being more comfortable at room temperature.
