Meds and Exhaustion

I've had 5 days of follistim now. And man, the last couple days, I've just been overly exhausted. Like sleeping til noon after going to bed at 9pm exhausted. Anyone else experiencing this on follistim? Injects? Other meds?

Re: Meds and Exhaustion

  • @momarazzi007 - Yes. Kinda like being pregnant, but not as bad.

    @mrscastillo - I think so. 10+ hours of sleep a night should be enough, right?!?!
