If the injection is causing so much itching, you can ask your doctor to prescribe micronosed progesterone capsules instead

First you need to confirm whether it's local allergies reaction to injection or not, in that case thrombophob ointment will not give you much relief. You can stop injection after consulting you obstetrician and ask for oral or vaginal tablets in such case.
