Day 3 of buserelin

I'm so so tired this time I can't remember being this tired on my last try's, who still exercises whilst going through treatment ? I'm trying to keep it up but I'm exhausted 😩

I've just resided to going for walks everyday as I found going for a run on the cross trainer too tiring - take it easy sweet x

I get so tired when on buserelin, absolutely floors me! I don't exercise too much at the best of times but my acupuncturist told me not to exercise whilst doing treatment apart from going for walks.....although I couldn't have done much else tbh!xx

I went for 20 minutes and it wasnt too bad thank goodness

I did acupuncture last time but haven't done it this time , now you've made me think about it again I might give it a go x

[Cinderella5 in reply to Hidden]

I was too scared not to do it on my third round when I did it on my second and did better! Lol Im onto DE cycle abroad now so wont be able to do it this time. I think to be honest Ive come to the conclusion that it's just a massive lottery! Best of luck for your cycle!xx

I'm still new to all this but is Buserelin a down reg drug? I am currently down regging (day 5) with Prostap and am due to start Buserelin on 1st Oct as apparently that's when my Prostap runs out. 🤔 I am also totally exhausted and run down since my injection - swollen glands, sore throat and ulcers. I am meant to go to yoga tonight but I honestly don't think I can! Don't know whether to force myself or listen to my body! Hope you feel better as the day goes on. Wishing you lots of luck with your cycle. X

Hi,

I only ever use Buserelin for down reg have never used another and I'm on my 5th go now, I use it for 17 days this time before they scan me and start my other meds I believe .

I'm already bloated but I do force myself as I feel exercise helps my mind and my mind helps my body

Is this your first try? Xx

Hi Hidden wow, your 5th go. You must be used to all these rubbish side effects now. I really hope it is 5th time lucky for you. 🍀

Yes this is my first ICSI cycle. Hoping for a miracle. Found out my AMH is very low so not holding out much hope that I will respond well (or at all). But I'll give it my best shot!

Well done for doing some exercise! I'm just in from work and collapsed on the sofa. Trying to build up some energy to make dinner! Xx

Don't force yourself to exercise. I go to the gym 4/5 times a week but through both cycles I'm lucky if I went TWICE during stims stage and 2ww. Listen to your body, it's giving you all the messages you need x

Hello, dear ladies! I also felt exhausted during my treatment. I usually stopped doing sports, except for walks and yoga on the weekends. The reason was not only that it was hard, but I also believed that tension was very bad for my body and could reduce my chances of getting pregnant 😵Still, I think that doing some low tension exercises is a must. The fertility journey requires a lot of strength, and it can be gained only through sports, unfortunately So say no to your tiredness and go for a walk

[Hidden in reply to Hannah_J]

Yep I did it and felt better

I've made some massive life changes for this cycle so let's prey this is the one xx
