Yes, they can do it in the hip, arm, butt,….wherever, but one is subcutaneous, the other intramuscular. It’s relatively easy to inject it appropriately most anywhere.

I just recently switched from monthly firmagon to 90 day Lupron shot. My options were butt or arm. I chose my arm. First shot was fine, second time, I couldn't lift my arm for 3 days. Overall, I feel much better on the Lupron so no problem.
