This is a common question we get. I will ask her again and add it there, but she described:
* feeling bloated during the process (and feeling heavy in the stomach)
* the discomfort of the actual injections (there are two daily)
* pain post-retrieval that was reminiscent of cramps
One of our other friends who had many eggs retrieved on a single cycle actually got ovarian torsion which is supposed to be outrageously painful.
- tonymet 8mo agothanks for sharing that's helpful. I've heard similar to more moderate ill effects from the therapy
- bigtex 8mo agoThis video on YT explains the not much talked about side effects and risks that can come from egg retrieval. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jAMrwAGR3GA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jAMrwAGR3GA
- tonymet 8mo agothanks . yeah i had a close family member do the same and it was a pretty long and painful process. it was > 10 years ago but I think the concerns are still similar.
- tonymet 8mo agoThe video was helpful and addressed many of the clinical and ethical concerns I have. Can you consent to a procedure that has a 30+ year impact? Are these treatments completely safety tested if long term studies are not being done? What are the ethics of making women take health risks for money, especially when health is increasing in value, and money is losing its value
