Brief Answer:
Hyperstimulation

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I understand your concerns.

OHSS means Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome where more than 3 follicles develop which might be life-threatening and lead to complications like Ascites, breathlessness etc.

There could be pleural effusion and heart failure.

If your doctor is expecting Hyperstimulation, please stop treatment.

Let me know if you need anymore help.

Regards
