Infertility

first time ovidrel

Hello all,

A little background info. I'm 26, my hubby is 28. We have been TTC since January of 2012. I was recently put on femara 5mg CD 3-7, and the ovidrel trigger shot to induce ovulation. I had 3 ultrasounds, and 4 rounds of bw to confirm an LH surge. My hubby gave me the ovidrel shot on Monday August 25 at around 630 pm. I curiously took a HPT on Tuesday morning because I read that the ovidrel will give a false positive, plus I wanted to see if it worked. I did indeed get a faint positive immediately. My question is: today is Wednesday August 27, and I don't really feel any pregnancy symptoms. I've read online that many women get sore bb's and slight nausea, I don't have anything except a small crying bit Monday night after shot, but I'm thinking that was just a fluke. Any ovidrel veterans out there that could give me some insight???? 

Re: first time ovidrel

  • Symptoms vary greatly by person and by cycle, even symptoms related to the meds. I wouldn't worry one way or the other unless you have symptoms that indicate a possible allergy to something in the meds or OHSS.

    Just as a note, most people on this board have moved on to IVF. More people on TTTC are in the TI or IUI phase, which is where I assume you are since you are using Femara.
