OHSS..
Saturday, 9 March 2013

So I've been googling a lot on this topic ever since the dr mentioned I'm at risk this morning.. And after reading the forums and the Internet, I'm getting a little worried.. I really don't want to be admitted to hospital to drain fluid from my tummy cos of over stimulation.. But from what I read, there is no way to prevent it... But maybe the below can help reduce the symptoms (which can get quite nasty)


  • Drink lots of electrolyte drinks i.e. h2o
  • Eat more proteins
  • Maintain a low carb diet
So looks like it's more egg whites for me (it has to be cooked so no more half-cooked ones)..
But I'm definitely willing to eat more of them if it's going to reduce my symptoms of OHSS...

Eeks... If i have to get it at all, I hope I get it mild, and not severe... =.=
