OHSS and pregnancy

[EmzieMurf1987]

So not only did I get my BFP today I’ve also been diagnosed with late onset OHSS. Had an ultrasound today at the clinic which shows several litres of fluid in my pelvis, lower abdomen, upper abdomen and above my diaphragm. I’ve been put on blood thinners and the clinic will be checking up on me daily which is great. At present I’m managing to avoid hospitalisation as I’m not vomiting and I’m peeing well - likely due to the 3/4 litres of fluid a day!

I just wondered if any of you lovely ladies had any experience of this and how long did your symptoms last? Did things get worse?

I’m currently 10DP5DT and symptoms started at 5 days and have gradually gotten worse, I’m very uncomfortable and house bound shuffling around the place.

would love to hear some success stories to keep my spirits up, it’s all very surreal at the moment!!

Hi, I'm 15dp5dt with a BFP too, but with late onset OHSS .. its going to be 2weeks since I got the bloating in my abdomen im going for regular checkups at the hospital aswell , didn't find the need to stay in due to the same reasons as you .. so just at home trying to walk around but very very uncomfortable and sometimes in pain. Just wondering how your getting on? Have you still got ohss or has it cleared? Would love to hear as I'm struggling with it too..

Aw so sorry to hear you are struggling with this too, it’s awful isn’t it!! The pain was just horrendous. By about 6 weeks I found the pain more manageable and by 10 weeks my abdominal fluid had resolved by itself. I still had enlarged ovaries at my 12 week NHS scan but that was all. I’m now 19 weeks and all is well so far 🤗

it’s horrible right now but it will all be worth it in the end. As far as I know it’s not affected the pregnancy which is the most important thing. I really hope you start to feel better soon 😘😘
