The injection is to prevent preterm labour to prevent early uterine contractions. Injection can be given at different sites with thinner needle. Change the side for injection alternatively. Why is she is having frequent clots. Has a coagulation study been done to see any abnormality in clotting in blood. How is bleeding and clotting time. After giving injection, pressure can be applied to the site to prevent bleeding.
