No side effects with injections?

Finally!!! We are starting with the injections for the stimulation...we are taking it with humor as usually I panic a bit with medical things....but I am relax and so happy that after so many years we are starting.

Today is my second injection....and I don't feel anything different. Is this normal?? I have read so much about side effects that I don't know if I should be concern.

I know I need to be realistic and it could take a long time until I get pregnant (if that happends)...but I cannot stop hoping for all of this to become true very soon.

Thanks

That’s totally normal! Some people don’t get many side effects at all but you wouldn’t normally feel them after two days. I think when I was stimming, I used to start to feel a bit bloated after about 5-7 days. Good luck!x

Thanks!! All of this process is complicated as we all have different situations and it is difficult to compare each other.😊

I was on 150 Gonal F and had zero side effects all the way up to egg collection. I was paranoid it wasn't working, but I ended up with lots of eggs (almost too many). So don't worry if you don't feel anything, everyone is different. All I had was some minor bloating that I probably wouldn't have noticed if I wasn't looking for symptoms. Good luck!

I didn't feel any side effects until day 5 when I started on the fyremadal. Since then quite bloated but nothing else!

No side effects at all really, I was on a huge dose, Buserelin and menopur (450), and other than very very mild Period cramps occasionally (which i wouldn’t have noticed if I wasn’t watching out for them), I felt like absolutely nothing was happening. But it was 😊(In all 3 cycles). Good luck this cycle. X

I had no side effects at all other than the physical swelling of ovaries which was uncomfortable towards the end of stims! I’m now 35 weeks pregnant and had no pregnancy symptoms either so I guess hormones just don’t effect me the same as some people! Good luck 😊

I would love that no symptoms and then getting pregnant and having no symptoms either😁.

I had 0 side effects during stims, not even bloating! I was on low dose of Menopour, then added Fyremadel for 2 days to stop ovulation and Ovitrelle as trigger.

I responded well to the treatment in fact too well, I developed OHSS but not too serious (lasted a week) after transfer and was pregnant. But like I said the during stims, egg collection, transfer I was totally fine! Best of luck! x

I had zero side effects with Gonal F for about 7-8 days. But after that I started to feel my eggs grow. I started to feel bloated and for the last 3 nights of both injections (as you later will need to add the second one too I think) I could not sleep, I was that uncomfortable. I really dont miss that feeling.
