How many vials of progesterone should be injected?

Patient's question:

If my normal menstrual period is on the 7th of each month, starting injections from day 23, how many days do I need to inject, how many days can it be advanced, and how many shots are usually needed to start?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, injecting 20mg progesterone daily for fetal protection is a good approach. The single-shot type likely had a suitable dose at that time, but generally, sustained-release formulations are preferred. However, these are usually not administered via intramuscular injection, and currently, sustained-release formulations have not been developed. It is recommended that you follow traditional treatment methods. Do not lightly trust information from unreliable sources. Regular progesterone supplementation is beneficial, as the baby's needs are best met with daily supplementation.
