OHSS after embryo transfer

Hello,

Hoping someone has been in the same boat as me and can offer some advice or reassurance.

I had my egg collection on Monday and my estrogen levels were quite high. I was prescribed cabergoline prior to this and advised to take until after transfer.

At transfer yesterday my doctor said my follicles were still pretty large and filled with fluid. However, my bloating and other discomfort have decreased and I've felt pretty good today.

However I've read that if you fall pregnant, it can worsen OHSS. So does this mean my transfer has failed since my OHSS symptoms seem to be improving? To reiterate my transfer was yesterday so very early days and I took my last cabergoline last night.

Many thanks!

Hi there, I don't have a personal experience but my sister did and it ended well for her. She did the transfer while she had no ohss symptomps whatsoever.

She had a BFP and when she was 6 weeks pregnant she had severe abdomen pain and had to be rushed to a&e a couple of times. All they did was to manage the pain and she was told that baby wasn't in danger.

She has now a 4 year old girl from that pregnancy 🙏.

Wishing you the best of luck with your transfer. Xx
