Such questions should be asked to your Gynaecologist who is going to look after you during pregnancy.
This question is based on the opinion of a Gynaecologist. It is very difficult to say if one opinion is better than the other.

If the oil-based progesterone injections are causing too much discomfort, you can discuss with your doctor about switching to other forms such as water-based injections, oral tablets, or vaginal preparations, which are often better tolerated
