Help!

Ladies, does anyone know any magical remedies for the bloat/trapped wind brought on from taking the pessaries? It’s driving me insane

I had my transfer yesterday so don’t want to take any tablets just herbal please.

Any suggestions???

I found this was so much worse when I used the back door. My tummy went up to 7 inches bigger than usual at times. I have IBS so think it irritated it. I’ve started using front door in the mornings (popping it in and then going back to bed for an hour seems cleaner) and then using the back door at night. My bloating and wind have decreased massively and my tummy almost looks normal again!

Ah you know I did think it might be worth alternating but I wasn’t sure I could. I’ll definitely start doing that, thank you!

I took lactulose as recommended by my clinic and that seemed to help although no herbal. X

Yoga helped me. I had awful trapped wind after egg collection. I think made 10 times worse by the lactulose I’d been encouraged to take to prevent constipation 🙈 I was in so much discomfort I couldn’t stand up straight so in desperation I googled yoga moves to help trapped wind. I found a video on you tube and low and behold straight away it helped! So definitely worth a try xx

I can't believe the pressaries can have such weird effects. Botty burps and sneezing for me. If its not one end its the other.
