STIMs symptoms gone after trigger

I triggered last night before egg collection tomorrow. While I was STIMing and also having Cetrotide I had sore boobs, clear discharge and a full heavy feeling in my ovary areas. Since I did the trigger last night those symptoms have really gone down a lot and it’s worrying me. I no longer have the full heavy feeling in my ovaries either. But I thought after trigger was when symptoms really started to get more so, not less. Any advice?

If it helps at all, I found my symptoms lessened after the trigger. The way I saw it was that the trigger was a release valve to let all the eggs loose for collection and so it made sense to me that the build up of pressure was released! Made sense in my silly head lol I had 13 eggs collected xxx

Hi PrincessGurn. The symptoms you have been feeling are most likely the side effects of the medication you have been taking. They will go right down after trigger shot is done, as job is done and you are waiting to colect your precisous eggs. Good luck! Diane
