Some clinics believe that a diet that is high in protein and low in salt and potassium can help you avoid hyperstimulation. Gatorade is a poor choice of fluid to drink to prevent/control hyperstimulation because it contains large quantities of salt. Water or Pedialyte is best, in quantities recommended by your RE. At a certain stage of OHSS, too much fluid can be detrimental.
My sister ended up pregnant and now has a baby boy. Good luck!
Good luck to you!
I felt fine the day of the IUI, but the next day my ovaries felt very heavy - it was a very weird feeling (but she did warn me of this). I had to go back every other day to get my measurements taken, blood work and she kept checking my weight.
also-what were the dosages you used? i had 125 for 2 days, then she called after checking my estrogen level-and i dropped to 75 yesterday and 75 today...
let me know what your levels were..
I was taking 200iu of follistim. Yes definately let me know how your appt goes.
