IVF- Bemfola vs Gonal-F

3 replies

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 can’t compare directly, as never been on bemfola… however if it’s any reassurance I had almost no side effects (and great results) with Gonal-f. I imagine you will be having a scan soon to check progress anyway? Wishing you so much luck with it xx
