Hi all!
I was wondering if any of you ladies have had any experience with injectable meds (ie. Bravelle, Follistim) ..... I am 6dpIUI and am having lots of bloating and breast tenderness. I used 150 IU Bravelle days 3-10, trigger was on day 11. At the time of trigger I was told there were 9 measurable follies: 4-5 of which were considered mature. I had terrible o pains following the 2nd IUI (my clinic does back-to-back) and since then I've had the awful bloating. 
Has anyone else had similar symptoms on injectables??
Anyone have any success??

I don't have any experience with IUI....yet, but there are ladies on the TTCMA board that have had success with Bravelle/Ovidrel. I think they complained about a lot of bloating too. Good luck hun. I hope this works for you.

I've never done IUI, and I've never done injectibles until I start them in two days-good luck to you!

Thanks ladies for the welcome!!!!
Amanda, good luck with your first Clomid cycle ..... I had awful mood swings on it  , HA! Oh yeah and hot flashes too 
Marie, good luck with the injectables this cycle .... the needles themselves aren't too bad, only stings for a minute or two.
Here's to a successful cycle!
