estradiol side effects?

Question

Hi everyone,
Last year when I took estradiol for my frozen transfer I didn't feel any different but this time I feel tired and nauseous when my stomach is empty. One difference in protocol is that I'm taking one more pill per day than I was last year and I take it vaginally. I mainly just wanted to vent and was curious if anyone else has had side effects like these from estradiol?

Answer

Yes, I had some side effects when starting Estradiol, and I typically don’t get too many side effects from meds. I remember getting headaches, and being tired and probably emotional. But for me, it all eased up after several days once my body adjusted. I even had it increased a couple times both orally and vaginally throughout FET and didn’t really notice.. it was mostly when initially starting. I took Tylenol and tried to stay hydrated. Hopefully your symptoms ease up soon!

Answer

I was so bloated and uncomfortable with estrodial and progesterone. I thought something was wrong. Once I was told I could stop at 8 weeks I felt better instantly

Answer

I get tired and an upset stomach on and off as well - you’re not alone. I am actually doing much better on it this time than I did for my first transfer, last time I had to nap every day and was outrageously emotional lol.

Answer

I’m doing well so far, no side effects (apart from bloating). Currently on 4x tablets per day and one weekly patch
