fertility treatment and motivation to be healthy

chokhas

hi.
we are starting ivf next month. 3 iui were not succesful. I am wondering if anyone else is going through this? I was not feeling well during the iui and the weight gain though mostly water weight during that time. I had a 7 kg gain while on my normal cycle it is usually just 2 kg.
just wanting to see what your experiences were n how you are managing the treatment.

I had my 2nd IVF treatment mid June. I also gained weight from the meds I was on. My suggestion is to not get frustrated with the weight gain, emotions, etc. That will just make it worse. It helps that my husband is very supportive during all of it. He is definitely involved, but at the same time, he doesn't have the daily meds, etc. Feel free to friend me and let me know if you have questions! It's definitely helpful to talk to someone. One thing I did differently from my first and second treatments is that I had acupuncture treatments to help keep my body calm and not stressed.

hi Nicole
thanks for your response, I had just send you a message over. I had lost my account n I just had to sign up with a new name as my email address could not be recognized.

Thanks for sharing your experience, I think it is a good idea being more active and having a feeling to be able to do something about the situation. Let me check places close by
