When did you start feeling bloated?

Question

Hi ladies,  I'm on day 5 of stims (300 Gonal-F and 150 Menopur;) I started feeling really bloated and discomfortable today and learnt that the dosage will be the same for the next 4 days...😳 Is there a way to reduce the bloating? I read online that you can eat cucumber, parsley to reduce water weight but I'm not sure. Any tips will greatly appreciated 😊

Answer

I️ haven’t started yet, I️ should start later this week.  but I️ asked my nurse when she told me the Plan because I️ assume I️ will experience bloating right away.  She told me to increase my protein intake and drink electrolyte beverages (coconut water, gatorade, etc.).  I️ hope this helps

Answer

I heard that you're supposed to drink a lot of Gatorade (even though it sounds counter productive bc of the sodium), the sodium actually helps avoid OHSS too.
