Hi Mrsplant. Can’t really see any reason for this, as any sedation you may have had would have worn off by now. Probably you may have just wound down from building up to egg collection, I don’t know. Try drinking some extra water in case your ovaries are still a bit active. Hope you feel more awake soon. Diane

Hey hun if you are on progesterone pessaries that will be the reason. A common side effect is tiredness. I known ive been on them 5 days and I am tired all the time can barely stay awake at night. Plus your body has been through alot and hormones all over the place! Rest up if you can 😊 and best of luck to you 💕xxx
