Brief Answer:
hormone changes induced by IVF therapy do pose tingling feet sometimes.

Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX and welcome to 'Ask A Doctor' services.
I have read your query and here is my advise.

* As per my clinical experience, the hormone preparations used for IVF therapy do pose
certain metabolic changes in the body responsible for tingling in peripheries also, apart
from various other possible issues related to blood circulation or nerves.

However, kindly provide further details so that I can answer your query completely.

1. If known, please share the name or content of injection given.
2. Is this first-time therapy or previously also taken?
3. Associated alteration in body temperature, pulse rate or other features if any?
4. Any past history of blood clots formation in the body?
5. Do you smoke?

Awaiting your response...
Regards.
