2dp5dt, cramping on period due date

[Bibble-2016]

Hi everyone, so I had transfer 2 days ago and got quite painful cramping now around what would have been my period due date, or thereabouts. I know it could be implantation, but could my own hormones/natural cycle be kicking in for a period despite the cyclogest pessaries?

Thanks for your help xx

I had cramping from day 1 until about day 7, so please try not to worry. It could be implantation and also the pessaries can make you cramp. Good luck 🤞🏼 xx

Hi Bibble-2016. Sorry to hear of this discomfort. It could be down to your ovaries still being a bit active after after the stimulation. One lot of hormones are trying to quieten down and the progesterone is taking over too, so might make you feel a bit off too. Try drinking plenty of water, and you can take some paracetamol if you get really sore, or anything you have been prescribed, but no anti-inflammatories such as ibuprofen. hope it soon passes. Diane
