Ive noticed on a lot of threads everyone says to drink lots of water after e/t. Why is is this? and is this only for a fresh transfer or is it for fet as well? Will check at clinic but too impatient as appt not for another week & a bit. Thanks Sarah xx

Sarah, You are advised to drink as much water as possible if you have used drugs to help stimulate your ovaries. Once the eggs are taken out of your follicles, they naturally fill up with fluid from other parts of your body and apparently by drinking water, it helps keep you hydrated. If you get dehydrated, there is a risk of your ovaries hyperstimulating. Hope this helps. Good luck Donna
