This will be my 9th day of stimulation and I have got about 14 good follicles going on from my scan from yesterday. A bunch around 14mm and one bigger. Scheduled egg collection next Weds. Just getting a few light pains near my ovary and uterus similar to period pains but not the same. Is this something bad? XX

No its not, its normal. You will start to get pain now as you are quiet “full”. Rest as much as you can and have plenty of fluids if it’s gets really bad call your clinic but it shouldn’t do. This pain is because your follicles are growing and your ovaries are feeling the pain xx
Phew, thank you! I only have my left side but I can feel it now! It's no specifically in my ovary it's on that side but yes I started to go for a walk and was like nope this hurts! Think I'm going to head up for a bath and try to relax! Thank you for your response I was starting to worry xxx
No dont worry, but like i said if you get im a lot of pain call your clinic, gp etc. As you said you only have one ovary it’s working very hard, i dont think you will be able to do much the next few days and dont aswell Because you dont want to make your self poorly. Rest as much as you can. Xx
It’s normal but be really careful not to overdo things- don’t exercise or do heavy lifting as there’s a tiny risk of ovarian torsion once you get to this stage. Good luck for EC tomorrow x
