Re: Gonal -F / Ovidrel girls...
Are you on progesterone too?
I didn't take Gonal-F, I took Follistim and Ovidrel. I'm 3 or 4 DPO and I'm exhausted, nauseaus, I have heartburn and I'm HIGHLY emotional, but some of that may be due to the progesterone supplements.

No...my level was 10.2 on Monday so they didn't put me on anything. Past few days I have super sore / heavy / full-ish bb's...last night I had terrible "digging"  cramps (that's the only way I can describe them) and exhaustion. Last night was so strange..I'm hoping   Beta is next Thursday. But at the same time I am keeping it real, so to speak.

I had none once I stopped taking them. I had a low grade headache the first few days on the Gonal-F, and never had any side effects from the Ovidrel

I had EVERY 'symptom' in the book... which I was told was from the gonal-f and ovidrel. Unfortunately, I don't think you can rely on symptoms right now- because they may or may not be accurate- and they'll end up driving you nuts!

I had all the symptoms you described on Follistim and Ovidrel. I think it's impossible to tell the difference between side effects from these drugs and pg.

I took Follistim and Ovidrel and also had alot of the pregnancy symptoms even though I wasn't. I was nauseous, extremely tired, and my chest was really sore and full. The RE said it was from the meds.
