IVF NEWBIE

Elizabeth • Wed, Sep 25 • 👧🏻 👧🏻 👼👶IVF #1 ❌ IVF #2 ✅

I’ll be starting my first round of IVF mid October and I had some questions about the shots.

I bruise easily and I’m on my feet all day at work, should I use hot or cold compresses after I take the injections to minimize swelling, bruising or overall tenderness?
