Hi,

Thanks for writing to HCM.

After embry transfer you will be adviced drugs containing progesterone.
This progesterone is normal sex hormone which helps in maintaining early pregnancy and prevent abortion. This drugs have many minor side effects like abdominal bloating , depression,breast fullness or pain, spotting, discharge per vagina and body ache or back ache.

So don't worry because of progesterone you are getting bloating and back ache and breast fullness . I usually don't advice any treatment for this. It will subscide itself .

Progesterone reduces intestine motility and cause bloating and even constipation.

Wish you luck for your pregnancy test.

Hope I have been helpful.
