Progynova symptoms

[LifetoCherish]

I am day 8 of 8mg of Progynova plus 0.25ml of Buserelin. I’m extremely exhausted, having to take a catnap during the day to keep going and I’ve noticed period like cramps. There was also a day I’m sure I felt my ovaries twinging on/off (almost like peak stims feeling) which I’ve heard can happen albeit rarely and the FET could be cancelled if this is the case. Has anyone else experienced similar symptoms with fatigue or ovaries?

Hi LifetoCherish,

I am on day 7 of 6mg Progynova and yes am feeling very tired. Also hungry all the time. I have a cold as well so not sure if the hunger is connected to that or the progynova. Have also had the odd twinge, but not sure what it is. Had a scan 2 days ago and all seemed fine so am not going to worry too much, think it can be quite normal.

Have you had your first scan yet? xx

Thanks for replying Isla. I am also very hungry, I wonder if it’s the body needing extra energy to make the lining. I’m always starving when I ovulate naturally so it must be the oestrogen. You must be ravenous with a cold on top! Lol.

Good to hear I’m not the only one with twinges going on.

My scan is today at 3pm, I am so scared they are going to say my follicles are awake and so my FET will be cancelled. Really hope my body is behaving 🤞🏻 xx

Yes, that is a good point, I hadn't thought of that. I thought it might have been the hormones causing the side effects. Literally can't stop eating and sleeping🙈😹

Good luck at your scan today! Keep us posted on how it goes, we might be TWW buddies xx

Omg the catnaps and not being able to get up and then wake up for the day are horrendous atm! I am craving sugar lots too just like when I am due on. Must be the hormones.Thanks I will update how I got on. We might well be 2ww buddies, fingers crossed I get the green light Have you started progesterone now or do you have another scan first? xx

I just had to have pizza for lunch after having 2 breakfasts today😂

I have no more scans! Kind of scared that I only have the one, but my dr was happy and said my lining is text book 🤞 I was at 7.4 on day6 of cycle, so will add in the progesterone from Saturday evening, and transfer is booked for next Thursday all being well.

Good luck for yours! x

Haha love that!

Amazing news, so happy you are booked in for a transfer and it's lovely hearing the docs say you are text book, they told me similar at my last egg collection. Bet you are super excited for Thursday.

Will let you know how I get on later xx

Had my scan and it's 8.2mm. My clinic need to see 8mm or over so we are very happy. I start progesterone (Lubion and Utrogestan) on Saturday and my ET has been booked in for Thursday like you. Looks like we are 2ww buddies! x
