HI to all, can egg collection cause lots of pain and want roughly are recovery times? I have endometriosis and does anyone know if it's more painful? Any advice welcome x

Hi..Amie1, I had egg collection last 8th July after 1hr. I came back home with a bus. I don't have any pain only on the 2,3rd day of egg collection. After that you will be better☺. I take paracetamol. I have severe endometriosis also.

Hiya, on both goes I had mild cramping and a little bleeding. First round took me a good few days to recover and I was in a bit of pain but second round was easier, I think because I had been on the stims for less days. I just took it easy the day of EG and the day after, drink lots of water and eat protein with every meal (that's the advise I was given at my clinic) Good luck for EG x

I didn't have any pain after - but I think that may be related to a small amount of follicles being collected. I just went home and slept that afternoon. But if I had one piece of advice it would be this. The nurse told me to rest the next day and I didn't. She said I might feel OK by the afternoon. Because I felt fine I worked from home and then went to work for 11.30. Of course it never crossed my mind that being at home for that call regarding whether they had fertilised or not. I should have been at home. I'm not assuming it won't work for you or anyone - but actually regardless of whether it had worked or not I wish I'd been at home to take it all in.

Good luck xx
