Hi everyone, on Letrozole and cyclogest while ttc and very very bloated.

Some slight pink spotting in the last few days, day 25 at the moment. Trying not to test for a few days.....

Not sure if anyone has any wisdom to share. We are on our 2nd cycle so far....

It's brutal right? Hard thing is people will think I am 3 months pregnant and I most certainly am not! I have been trying all sorts to try to make it better.....x

I resembled a basketball throughout treatment, including the progesterone on a FET. I found it quite upsetting that people might think I was pregnant but my stomach was so distended I couldn't have blamed them. Weirdly I found pears gave me some relief - they didn't make me look any smaller but they helped deflate me a bit so I was less uncomfortable.

Ok will try - I was drinking prune juice! But no idea if it made any difference 😆

If it feels like gas, Windsetlers can help. Safe for pregnancy. Xx
