I went thru my first round of IVF with a BFN in August. DH and I decided to wait 2 cycles to try again. These past two cycles of PMS have been terrible! My symptoms are worse than I have ever had.

Has anyone else experienced this?

" I have not experienced this.

However, I have had two miscarriages and after each of my short lived pregnancies my cycles changed and my symptoms changed too, which caused me to worry as I'd been a 28day at 10am on a thrusday since I was 11 years old before pregnancy.

I am 7days off my first ever fertility treatment of IVF with PGD, as I am not infertile, just "medically incapable of having a child"....I'm not sure why I get a different pigeon hole, but it sure makes the insurance company happy. "

" I haven't done IVF but after my MC my symptoms changed completely. The cycle length shortened by a few days and the cramps and clots increased dramatically. I also had major cramps and clotting while on fertility drugs. My guess is that you body is still dealing with the residual effects of all the meds from your first round of IVF. The doctor told me not to worry about it but it makes the coming of AF dreaded each month. From day 2-4 I resist leaving the house except for work because of the side effects and flow. I'm hoping that now that I am off the meds the side effects will subside some. Good Luck on your next cycle. Hoping and praying for a BFP soon. XO :) "
