The following information is a general guide only. Please follow specific dose and usage instructions from Fertility First nursing staff at the time of treatment. Pregnyl is an injection used as either a trigger OR supporting injections in the luteal phase. Pregnyl should be stored in the original package in a cool, dry place, below 25°C. DO NOT store in the freezer Do not use Pregnyl after the expiry date.
Wash and dry your hands thoroughly Assemble everything you will need. Find a clean area and lay everything out.
Remove the hard, plastic cap on the solvent vial. Using the 21G (green) needle, draw back 1ml of air into the syringe and inject the air into the vial containing the liquid. Draw up all the liquid. Slowly inject the liquid into the vial containing the powder (after first removing the protective cap). Gently swirl without removing the syringe and wait until the powder to dissolves (the powder should dissolve instantly). Do not shake the vial. Draw up all the solution. You should have 1ml in the syringe.
Pregnyl is given as a subcutaneous injection (under your skin) in the lower abdominal area or thigh. Change the needle to the 27G (grey) needle. Clean the injection area with an alcohol swab. Pinch a fold of skin between your thumb and forefinger and insert the needle fully at a 90° angle of the syringe Keep the needle in the skin for 10 seconds after injecting and then withdraw the needle and discard immediately into your sharps container.
Q: What should I do if there is a large bubble in the solution? A: If any bubbles are present in the syringe, hold the syringe vertically with the needle pointing upwards and gently tap on the syringe until the air collects at the top. Gently push the plunger until the air bubbles are gone. Please be advised that when in doubt or if you have any questions or concerns, it is always best to contact the Nurses at the clinic and speak to them directly.

Discover how Fertility First can help.
With a range of fertility treatments available at our Sydney clinic, find out how our team of dedicated fertility Specialists can help you on your fertility journey.
As a Doctor-owned Medical Practice, our fertility and IVF treatment costs do not need to cover overheads and/or shareholder dividends, all of which have to come out of the income derived from patients’ treatment cycle fees at other fertility clinics in Sydney.
From the 1st October 2022, the NSW Government announced a rebate of $2,000 in OOP expenses for all eligible patients. Fertility First is pleased to support the NSW Government’s fertility rebate at our Sydney fertility clinic.
Fertility First is privately owned, which means we can place more focus on our patients. We offer a holistic approach to fertility and believe that it’s important to minimise the invasiveness of the fertility testing process and only carry out the necessary investigations, maximising your chance of a successful outcome. We offer extensive preliminary fertility testing, including Halosperm Assay.
We were one of the first Sydney fertility clinics to offer a donor sperm and donor egg program, thanks to our partnership with Central IVF.
Choosing the right fertility clinic in Sydney is a very important decision. You should consider factors like success rates, clinic location and appointment times, fertility treatment costs, repor with the Fertility Specialist and what treatment options are available.
