    FET- Progynova & burping/reflux

    Hi,
    This will be my 4th FET cycle, I only noticed on the last cycle that i started burping alot and then some acid reflux - silly me thought it may be a sign of pregnancy but now i believe it may be the Progynova(estrogen tablets) causing this. Has anyone else ever suffered this - if so did they change your meds, or did you just have to put up with it??

    i'd be mentioning it to FS - i actually felt the best i had in ages while i was on the progynova and don't recall any bloating/belching/reflux. i would thinking it's the standard HRT they use, but can't possibly be the only one, so if you have a sensitivity, they might try something else

    good luck

    Briggsy's,
    Thanks - i did ask FS and apparently its a side effect from high doses of estrogen - so am on heart burn medication to counteract it - he said not to be too concerned but also have to watch diet as well, ie things like onion, garlic and acidic foods to try an avoid and mostly try to avoid chocolate thats a tough one - i looooove my chocolate - oh well could be worse.

    ooh, not chocolate!!!

    i think maybe i don't get so many side effects like that cos i had reflux issues a few years ago, so tend to eat appropriately to make sure i dont' get any dramas - sounds like it might be working in my favour (though i still eat lots of garlicc, onion, chilli - i just know it's going to trigger it so obviously haven't associated it with the progynova!)

    good luck getting it under control
