If you had OHSS...

how long did your symptoms last?

I just had my 5th drain yesterday (in 2 1/2 weeks) and I am so so done with this. I feel good for a day or two after the drain and then symptoms start to build again and I'm miserable. I'm so tired of being sick. I don't know how much more I can take.

    Ugh. I'm so sorry. I had moderate OHSS and never had to do a drain, so I'm not sure my experience is relevant, but my ovaries didn't start to shrink until around 10 weeks. That said, my body adjusted to the excess fluid, etc. before that.

    Feel better.

    Ugh! I'm so sorry you had to be drained 5 times! I had to be drained once and I thought I had it bad. I think the symptoms lasted to about 9 weeks. Normally without OHSS you'd just feel bloated, so at some point the OHSS symptoms fade into pregnancy bloat. It isn't until 2nd trimester that my stomach really started for feel more normal.
