Am worried about my upper stomach,iv just done IVF with 3 embryos transfered back in me, my upper stomach feel bloated than my lower stomach making me feel too full. Id like to know if this is normal. Am just 2 weeks pregnant and it feels like 2 months. What is wrong or is it normal with IVF?
Hi, Thanks for writing to Chat Doctor.Don't worry. Bloating is normal during infertility treatment.  The reason is due to progesterone level in blood. This can be from progesterone supplement which is routinely prescribed after IVF.  After you conceive your body also start secreting progesterone.  Progesterone reduces motility of intestines and cause constipation and bloating.  Bloating is common side effect of all Chat Doctor.  No need to take any treatment for this. I would suggest you to have frequent meals 5 times a day as small divided amount and
