Are There Any Chances Of Hyper Stimulation Of Follicles In IVF Treatment?
Question: Hi, i was under injectables for follicular growth this cycle and was given hcg shot on friday. After that the scan showed ovarian hyperstimulation. My ovaries have almost doubled in size and volume is 93 and 105cc. I dont have any symptoms and my doc advised that i dont take any further injectables n meds. Are there any serious side effects? Sincr i took hcg on friday will the hyperstimulation gradually increase or decrease? I had multiple grown follicles and only 1 ruptured,rest 2 to 3 follicles measuring over 20 and 25mm are still in my ovaries. In case these dont rupture what ll happen to them? Also is my hyperstimulation something to wry abt? My doc did hemoglobin and pcv test and it came out normal ,she asked for a rescan after 5 days and come for follow up. In the mean time any symptoms of pain shortness of breath etc etc she asked me to report back.
Brief Answer:
Hyperstimuation is not severe
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I read your query and I understand your concerns about hyperstimulation ( HS).
Following is my reply:
1) Since you are PCOS you are high risk candidate for HS.
2) But your folicles are not somany to cause complications associated with HS as in IVF cycle. Even if those follicles dont rupture , they slowly regress back and become small.
3) I think your doctor is worried excessively. I assure you that it is not a severe hyperstimulation and will subside soon. you wonrt have problems as worried.
4) Eat 2 boiled egg whitess daily.
Let me know if you have anymore questions.
Regards,
Dr. Mahesh Koregol
