Ibuprofen during stims?

Hi everyone, I started my injections for my second round of IVF last Friday, aiming for egg collection around 6 March. I've been taking ibuprofen for headaches (possibly a side effect of the stims?) but read online this morning that this might not be such a good idea since it can affect follicle development. I will of course check with the clinic at my appointment tomorrow, but I was just wondering if anyone has any concrete information on this in the meantime? I'm panicking I might have already screwed things up and feeling very alone 😢

Call your clinic. I get migraines and was always told no ibuprofen on a cycle when you plan an ET. You can take Panadol/paracetamol or low dose aspirin.
