Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is an excessive response to taking the medicines (especially injectable gonadotropins) used to make eggs grow. Rarely, OHSS can result from taking other medications, such as clomiphene citrate or gonadotropin-releasing hormone.
Women with OHSS have a large number of growing follicles along with high estradiol levels. This leads to fluid leaking into the abdomen (belly), which can cause bloating, nausea, and swelling of the abdomen. When OHSS is severe, blood clots, shortness of breath, abdominal pain, dehydration, and vomiting are possible.
Listen in to learn more about this condition. As always, speak to your medical provider for more information regarding OHSS, especially if you have PCOS and are about to undergo an IVF cycle.

Unexplained infertility is a diagnosis given to couples when all of the standard testing is normal but they have been unable to conceive for at least 12 months. This is a very frustrating diagnosis for couples,as they don’t know in which direction to go – whether they need expensive, invasive fertility treatments, or whether this is something that can be resolved naturally.
Listen in to learn more about this condition. As always, speak to your medical provider for more information regarding unexplained infertility in order to determine the best course of action for you.
