Trouble TTC

Some issues...could use some guidance .

So this is my first try with follistim and I am currently in my 2ww (almost done with the first week). I have been taking progesterone since Wednesday.

Yesterday and today I'm noticing how much my back is hurting and how tender my breasts are. I also noticed that my stomach is pretty bloated still (I got really bloated on the follistim) and I?m exhausted.

Is all of this my body just trying to get use to the transition from the follistim and the progesterone or should I be worried?

 

Thanks!

    Ditto. My bloating only went away right before I got my period each time.

  • I had the same experience last month after my 1st IUI - progesterone wreaked havoc on my body!  cranky, bloated, weight gain, cramps, constant fatigue, sore/tender breasts...I am not looking forward to starting back on progesterone again tomorrow (had IUI # 2 today). I know my husband definitely isn't looking forward to it either!
