First cycle... First IUI.... TWW
Hi. I am new to this forum (well to all forums alltogether). I have PCOS. We just completed our first cycle of injectables on the 12th of Jan, and I had my first IUI on the 14th. I had 2 mature follicles, however my estrogen level reached 7,000! I was hospitalized with severe OHSS. I wasn't drained, but I was given 5 liters of liquid and sent home. After a week the OHSS subsided and I am feeling much better, however the doctor informed me that if I am indeed pregnant the symptoms will return, and most likely will be worse. (Not looking forward to that, but it is worth it to have a baby). Anyway, I go for my beta in 2 days and I am very excited and nervous, but my question is, has anyone experienced period like cramps during the 2WW? I've been having them on and off, but so far no sign of my period. Also no sign of any OHSS symptoms yet, so I not very optimistic, as much as I'm trying to be. I apologize if I'm in the wrong place for this question, just wanted to see if anyone else has experienced what I am. Thanks
Welcome... I had my IUI on the 13th and had cramping pretty consistently the first week and it was intermittent the 2nd. Good Luck with your beta!
