Buserelin for FET

[everhopeful83]

Evening guys,

I’m currently taking buserelin for down regulation for my first FET. I feel SO bloated and have put in 4lbs in one week😩😩😩

Please tell me it’s not just me this has happened to??? Or maybe I’m just eating too much 😆

Any suggestions on how to stop this rapid weight gain?

Unfortunately this is very normal. I had a lot of bloating through the down reg and stims to the point I even looked pregnant! (Ironic!) I never weighed myself as did not want to add to the stress and anxiety. Do not get too worried as it goes back after the process. x

I was bloated until after transfer! And still a bit now. I didn’t step near the scales and scarves became my best friend when going out to hide the bloat 🙈 xxx

Totally normal. Happened to me. With all the drugs you have to pump into your body it’s best to accept the temporary bloat and weight gain. Be kind to yourself and rest when you need to.

I am back on it again after a failed fresh transfer. I feel as though I’ve been bloated for the past 6 months, it’s awful!

I’m on the smaller size and did have to put on a bit of weight to raise my bmi, but this bloating makes me feel awful and very uncomfortable.

hopefully it will be worth it in the end, you’re not on your own x

Hi all, thanks so much for responding, it’s good to know it’s normal, it’s just so uncomfortable 😆 think i might need to hide the scales!!

Hope all of you are well 💖 xxx
