GHOST Ohss question...

Post by krissymichaels »

So I had mild ohss symptoms (major belly bloat) before my 5 day transfer on Sat the 31st. Doc said if I do get preggo it will worsen..but those symptoms are almost gone. I did take off work drank lots of gatorade, did everything doc told me to do. Of course now I am worried I may not be preggo. I really want to stay positive but also being realistic. Any thoughts?

Watch for a return of symptoms around August 4-6, and perhaps lasting 2-3 weeks thereafter. If they do return like that, then I am sorry about your OHSS, but also congratulations on the pregnancy. If it does not return, you still could be pregnant.
Avoid IVF and surrogacy in Ukraine. Ukrainian centers pay shills to post here under numerous sock accounts pretending to be patients in Ukraine. Centers using such deceptive advertising cannot be trusted and should be avoided.

Krissy,

I had that same question. I was worried I wasn't pregnant b/c today I feel almost back to normal. I'm glad to know we both have a few days where we feel almost back to normal before we're back in OHSS hell

Hi

I got my OHSS symptoms during the 2nd week of the 2ww. I struggled to even walk.

I hope you are pregnant but symptoms not too bad

Good luck
