Yes I was on them in my last pregnancy. It is a steroid ? My ivf clinic recommended it

Do you think it’s worth doing ? I’m also going for the womb scratching xx

I think the steroids are good for a short period. We were weaned off them around 6/7 weeks pregnant.

I had scratch once didn’t work. Reset ah has not proved to me it’s worth it so didn’t bother on last ivf. I got my babies now and didn’t have scratch.

The scratch has very little research around it. Clinics offer it but really I feel it’s money making. Yes it can work for some people.

I’m on prednisolone for the first time this cycle. I was worried about weight gain but thankfully not really noticed any so far xx

I’m starting them soon and really worried about the side effects. What dosage are you on? X

I’m on 10mg per day, which I believe is a fairly low dose. I feel like it may have impacted on my sleep a little but nothing major (I always take them early in the morning to help minimise this) xx
