Water retention

drink lots of water with electrolytes(mineral water, coconut water, electrolytes in a pack). And talk to your doctor. My doctor mentioned that weight gain might be a sign of OHSS

Thank you, Margarita! I started drinking coconut water yesterday and ordered more electrolytes. I only have 13 eggs growing at this point, do you feel OHSS can appear even with this number?

I am on my first round and don’t have much of experience for now, but I am at risk of OHSS, so did some research.
at this point all you can do is to drink more electrolytes and have more protein in your diet.
And your doctor should track your estrogen and consider how follicles are growing, as too many tiny follicles are often the main cause of OHSS.

Thank you so much for sharing! You might be right about smaller follicles as there are 13 more which did not grow yet and may stay as is. I hope your cycle comes to very productive results with many healthy embryo babys! When did you start the stims?

A week ago:) today is my 8th day of stims😮‍💨 Can’t wait to be finally done with those needles🙈

Good luck! I’m on day 9 of stims and it is no joke

We are on the same schedule!! Wohoo! It is day 9 for me too

PS: I still feel awful but the water retention reduced in the last two days and my weight came back to the norm. I almost replaced food with coconut water.
