I just felt abit tired that's all. Not long now bet you can't wait x

When I first started each of the meds I had headaches/tiredness for the first few days and also had a couple of mild night sweats.  Stimms lowered my mood and I definitely felt worse on them than when I was doing down reg.  Overall they were not too bad and easy to put up with as in a good cause.

I had really bad migraines during buserelin down reg, almost every 2nd day for 3/4 weeks!! Very low mood too and easily upset. On the stims it was really just bloating, I felt better on those than the down reg x

Oh, God had almost all of them!! - lol

Firstly these were vision problems. For me it was more than just confusing. It was awful as had never had such sort of problems. Then I also experiences allergic reactions to drugs such as lips swelling. Also terrible headache! For women using OE in IVF this is crucial to be aware of the symptoms of severe ovarian hyper stimulation syndrome (OHSS) as it may bring so much harm.

Take care, dear, which you all the best x
