Hi, I've just finished a cycle of IVF and thrilled to say we had our BFP on Sunday. I've been on Lutigest Progesterone pessaries since ET and for over a week now, I've been extremely bloated. When I say extreme, I mean my stomach is huge and I look around 6 months pregnant already. And it all quite high up rather than around my pelvis. It's so uncomfortable and painful at times as I get tightness/cramping underneath my belly when I stand from sitting/laying down which is really uncomfortable. My clinic checked me for OHSS when the bloat first started and although there was a little fluid around my stomach, it was nothing they seemed concerned about. They are putting it down to the progesterone. I've been on the same pessaries on previous cycles and never had this issue.
Hoping for some advice, or just to know I'm not the only one who's experienced this. Please tell me the bloat goes down once the progesterone stops!
