IVF - Extreme Bloating & Constipation?

Question

Hi ladies! I had my egg collection on Oct 12 and 5 day embryo transfer on Oct 17. 
I experienced a little bloating before my egg collection because of the injections but it went away after the egg collection. After my embryo transfer, I started using Utrogestan (Progesterone) 3x a day, and I got super super bloated and having extreme constipation! I look like I am 3-4 months pregnant! I am wondering if anyone else is experiencing this?
Could this be positive symptoms? I am now 10dp5dt and the bloating has not gone down. I just tested hpt this morning and it is showing a positive, I'm due for my BETA tomorrow, I am really hoping it's good news and not the trigger shots 🙏🏼🙏🏼.

Answer

I had late-onset moderate OHSS after my transfer, caused by the pregnancy hormones. I drank a lot of electrolytes and ate a lot of salty foods.

Answer
