Dexamethasone during IVF any tips to maintain weight?

Question

I am starting my FET cycle next month and I’m worried about the steroid. I’ve never taken one before but I’ve heard it can make you gain tons of weight.  If anyone has any advice or suggestions please let me know thank you!!!!

Answer

I took it, but didn’t have any issues with weight gain. Maybe because it’s not an extended period of time. My weight gain happened right around the time of egg retrieval, but I think that’s pretty normal. I went up about 6 pounds, and was back down again about a week later.
