Abdominal bloating in IVF

A woman who menstruates more often knows what bloating feels like. If you are undergoing IVF treatment, your body will be subjected to fertility drugs and hormones. These hormones are the same as the ones that cause bloating during your periods. The hormones given to you during the IVF may cause you to feel bloated on either the same levels or on an increased level. This is especially true during the ovarian stimulation phase.
