Stims make anyone else's stomach hurt?

I have read about stims or Lupron causing constipation, but I seem to me having the opposite problem. It seems that the longer I stim the closer to diarrhea I get.... Yuck! Anyone else? Maybe it's just nerves??

    My stomach definately hurts and feels very full right now.  My nurse said it's normal because my ovaries are bigger right now.  I have the opposite problem as you though, constipation...ugh!!!  I hope that you feel better!

    I hadnt thought about it, but I guess I am kinda constipated.  My stomach gets upset, but im attributing it to the doxycycline.

    I was a bit constipated on Lupron but some of my friends had the opposite problem so I'm sure both are possible.

    I'm constipated on a somewhat regular basis already due to lack of fiber/water and my fibroids...I did notice and increase in my constipation during stims. No diarrhea though.

    Yeah!  The runs and it hurts.  Like after 2 days of stims and my stomach hurts and I have more gas than usual.  I am so glad that I am not the only one.  I swear I can feel my ovaries in there!
