hi:
thank you to your question
you might have injured the coccyx bone (tail bone) which takes long time to improve.
try to use doughnut shape cushion when you set.
physiotherapy might help as well.
even if you have fractured coccyx you can still give birth, so you should not be worried much about that. but check with your doctors that the painkillers will not affect the IVF inhections.
hope you get better soon
