Do others have to pee frequently and violently on stims?

I'm peeing twice as much and when I have to go, it's almost crampy.... I have to go immediately. Is this in my head? Could this be my enlarged ovaries?

I am having this image of a crazed, aggressive woman "peeing violently." Chuckles...in all seriousness, I didn't experience this while on stims. After ER I took medrol (a steroid) for a few days which had me up every 2 hours in the night to pee. If urination is painful, it might be worth a call to your doc...possibly a UTI? I'll be interested to hear if others experienced this during stims. Good luck!

chicory I knew violently was a bit strong, but it gets the point across It's not really pain, it's just very urgent and feels like I have had to go for hours and have been holding it. 

I've blamed a lot on IVF that I'm sure is unrelated, so I don't doubt that I could be imagining this. I also am constantly aware of my ovaries right now, so it could just be added awareness to that area. I'm probably just crazy.....

I totally peed non-stop when stimming -- at least that's what it felt like! It is not your imagination. :-)

Yes, especially towards the end. I usually go once in a 12 hour shift. Apparently people notice these things because my coworker was like, "Are you ok? You never pee this much!"

Omg, I'm so glad you posted this. I've been feeling the same way. It must be the increased ovary size?? I think the hurting part is the ovaries too. So weird.
