I've used Ovidrel for all my cycles apart from the first (I used pregnyl first but it was too painful). My RE told me to leave the air bubble in it, it's there to ensure that you get the whole dose so there's none left in the actual needle. Because the meds are only injected into the fat under the skin, it will just dissolve. If it was going into a vein then you would definately make sure that there's no air in it. I would call your RE just to confirm it because they may do it differently with you guys (I'm from Australia). Good luck!
