    It depends on whether you push it down hard and fast (it tends to wind down in a whirring noise) or slow and steady (it clicks quite loudly clicking every measurement off)
    I am sure you are doing it ok..before you do your next injection pull the cover off the pen and put a texta mark where the the syringe plug is, after the injection you should see the difference.
    I was a slow injector..lol I wanted to make sure every bit of hormones got into my system oh and then there is the pulling the needle out and sepage of the drug form the injection site..just give it a few seconds before taking it out

    Hi BW - yes, mine clicks at each increment as the dose is being administered. I know this sound well because I feel pain when it is pushed in too quickly.. I use it as a guide for when I am nearly done because DH does my needles and my eyes are shut!!

    You mentioned feeling something after your 1st needle in another thread, I did, like pin pri*ks every now and again

    Good luck!
