IVF - ICSI medicated FET cycle

Hiya,

Unfortunately I am not ovulating as I should be (PCOS/Endo and other chronic issues) so I have to go for a medicated cycle rather than a natural one.

I'm feeling really overwhelmed with it all. I know it sounds silly but I do have a lot of medical issues and just planning for all the timings of the medicines is so much. I just worry it's going to absolutely wipe me out as I suffer a lot with chronic fatigue as it is. I also have an 8 year old daughter. (Naturally conceived by some kind of miracle!)

Does anyone have any advice or just reassuring words from your own experiences?

Thank you. X

I also have chronic fatigue and didn’t find my medicated ICSI cycle all that taxing emotionally or physically. I took off a week of work in anticipation of it being horrible and while I was a bit sore and a bit more tired toward the actual retrieval, it wasn’t nearly as bad as I’d anticipated at all.

Thank you, that's really reassuring 😊
