So I am only on day 4 of PIO for my first ever FET but here is what helps me in my limited experience lol. I heat for about 20 minutes before my shot using a portable heating pad from Amazon (link below). I don’t sit on it - I place it exactly on my hip/upper outer butt area where I inject. I hold the prepared shot with the injection needle already put on it for about 5 minutes in my hand and kind of roll it around in my hands to warm it up. I then do some squats/lunges immediately after the injection and then put the heating pad back on for about 20 minutes. I have definitely had some soreness but it’s not unbearable and I love this heating pad!! I was using a larger corded heating pad at first and the one linked below is much better. I also just have generally been using it at night when some soreness pops up and it helps. I can’t speak to an auto injector. I inject myself and have no issues and barely feel it. I honestly found menopur much worse during the ER process as far as actually injecting the medication goes. https://a.co/d/04K7C1Wm
