symptoms/side effects with gonal f or follistim?
Hi Ladies.....did any of you have NO symptoms or side effects from gonal f or follistim? I've been using gonal f 450 iu per day and it's been about 4 days and I have absolutely no side effects. I have some slight twinge feeling once in a while in my lower abdomen, some fatigue and slight headache once in a blue moon BUT that's it.
Anyone else with me or am I the only one? If I am the only one, it makes me feel like my body is not reacting to the stim drugs!!!

I  Gonal-f for this very reason. It is the ONLY med I have taken through all of this and have had no side effects from. Well, it has a  side effect for me, it makes me very "amorous", LOL. Enjoy the side-effect free drugs while you can!!

I think it gets me a teeny bit bloated.. though nothing compared to the bloating I got this cycle in the 2ww... though that could be from Ovidrel, progesterone, or hopefully a BFP!

I was on Gonal-F for close to 20 days and I was a hormonal and bloated mess the entire time!
