I may not have gray hair, but I am starting to see my natural hair color which I haven't seen in years. I am DESPERATE to highlight my hair but am holding out until after my ER and ET.

I didn't do IVF, but I was on prednisone and all kinds of hormones etc. I also contribute the weight gain to my 2 losses and the depression that went along with my struggles over the last year plus.

I'm sorry about your losses Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Totally understandable.

I just had my 3rd unmedicated IUI and I do take endometrin for 2 weeks out of the month. Doesn't cause weight gain but it makes me bloat like crazy!

I am nervous about what all the hormones will do to me Chat Icon

No weight gain yet, but I have to be very careful as I can gain very quickly. I am just extremely bloated from the hormones and the prednisone is making me soooo hungry!!!! I think the only thing that is helping me mentally and physically is that I work out at least 4 to 5 days a week.

Hopefully in the end it will all be worth it!!!

I didn't gain weight doing the IUIs - I actually lost a few lbs from the stress. I am feeling a spare tyre around my middle since then but it I just put it down to aging and middle-age spread. Chat Icon I'm not sure what to expect with IVF but I won't be surprised if I gain some.

I gained prob @ 5 lbs. with my IUI cycles, but when I did IVF I lost about 6 lbs. in one week. It was because of all the anxiety from the procedure.

I def. gained it from Clomid.

Not a lot of weight (about 10 lbs) & my eating did not change at all.

Problem is...it's ALL in my chest (as in breasts).
