No side effects - does this mean I’m taking meds wrong?

[ForABabyPanda]

I didn’t feel any side effects from nasal spray apart from slightly low blood pressure, and now I’m on injections I don’t think I have any side effects either - I’m a bit hormonal today but I’m also having my ‘period’.

Does this mean the drugs aren’t working?

No it doesn't. First round i had side effects and they got 5 eggs. Second round NONE at all and they got 7.

I think we can feel like side effects is a level of reassurance but it is really out our hands!

All the best of luck xx

Thank you for that reassurance - I guess I had worried that I was taking, particularly the nasal spray, wrong - as there's no feedback to know it's got to where it needs to! At least you can see that the injectables have gone in or not! Injections incidentally are not as painful as expected!

Hi ForABabyPanda. Feeling hormonal is just fine. Not everyone experiences symptoms, which in my book is good. Hopefully all goes as it should you get a good egg collection and fertilisation. Diane

thanks Diane, definitely feeling tireder today, and slightly off tummy but if that’s as bad as it gets I’ll be happy
