IVF - Bemfola vs Gonal-F

I had ivf 3 years ago with Bemfola and remember I had side effects of mild nausea, mild cramping and felt like my ovaries were on fire.
I have now started a new ivf round with Gonal-F I’m now on day 6 of taking the injections and have not felt anything at all yet in terms of side effects. Is this normal? I have not started Cetrotide yet.

Just wanted some advice.

Thank you in advance.

I have used gonal-f for two IVF rounds and never had any side effects from it, I didn't feel like I was taking anything at all! I only got side effects from ganirelix and progesterone (which almost felt like a relief to feel something)

I got decent numbers of eggs both times so don't worry.
