MJ pens hard to press???

I’m on my third pen, repeating a 5mg.
the previous pen I noticed seemed hard to press whilst injecting….i just thought perhaps a one off…..but I’ve just started a new pen and it’s difficult to administer singlehanded. I usually pinch a bit of fatty skin with one hand and inject with the other.
anyone else noticed, do you manage with one hand…..or use two, if so how?

I've been on MJ since the end of May 2024 and I've noticed my current pen is much harder to push to inject.
It's working fine, but I do have to push harder than I've had to before.

I’m considering doing every dose now with an insulin pen as the pens are leaving me with bruises.
