Hey gals,

Just wondering if any of you have had any tummy/intestinal side effects of stims.

I'm only on 50 IU Gonal-F for an IUI cycle. I took my 5th dose last night. Good news is, it's working and I'm growing one, maybe two nice follicles. Yesterday I was having a very gurgly tummy and had a few loose BMs.

Today I had some diarrhea with a wee bit of abdominal cramping. I do not feel sick at all, so I'm finding this weird. I'm chalking it up to a side effect of Gonal-F because on the drug insert it lists diarrhea as a potential side effect.

Has anyone experienced this before? I've scoured the web without much luck. Just need to not feel alone right now.

Infertility sucks and I'm scared of every little thing I'm experiencing.
