The use of hormones in IVF can cause problems like dehydration, abdominal pains and vomiting. WHICH HORMONE?

Q: I got this phrase from text book – which hormone are they referring to??? any ideas suggestions?any other relevant info can be addedAlso, it says ‘due to hormonal treatment, some reports (possibly falsely) suggest an increased risk in cancer’…anyone know which hormone this could be etc.

A: Well the answer above mine was blatanly plaguerized…They are’nt just referring to one hormone and it depends which stage of IVF they are in.They use hormones to stimulate the ovaries to produce more eggs. During egg production there is in influx in naturally occuring hormones such as progesterone and oestrogen. An overdose in these female hormones (IVF to stimulate increased egg production) causes the illness and pains. This can also be seen with girls taking contraceptive pills that contain too much oestrogen and progesterone – they often get ill. The increased risk of cancer comes with Oestrogen.:)

Dehydration while pregnant?

Q: Hello ladies, I’m 12 weeks pregnant and today my doctor told me I was very dehydrated. I know loss of fluids cause it. Does not eating enough cause it, too? How much fluids should I drink a day to get hydrated and how long would it take? Can anything else help? Thank you for all answers. Oh yeah, can dehydration also cause UTI’s and/or abdominal pain? My doctor was rushing so I didn’t have time to ask anything. Gonna start looking for a new doctor 2morrow.i don’t think I have a UTI, I was just wondering. When I pee I pee a little but it’s often and doesn’t hurt or irritate. now I know why I was only peeing so little every time, dehydration.

A: Food does contain liquid, but does not replace water. You should be drinking 8 to 10- 8 oz glasses a day…if not more. Dehydration can actually cause your uterus to contract, as well as UTIs. So it’s VERY important to stay hydrated. Right now, though, just drink a lot of water and eat fruits and veggies. Your body should be able to catch itself up. If you start noticing a lack of urination or you just don’t feel well, you should go to the ER and have them give you a liter or 2 of normal saline to replenish your body.

Is Upper Abdominal Pain normal for Constipation?

Q: I know I’m constipated. Chronic I guess, it’s been going on for over a month now.But recently, my whole stomach has been sore. Above my belly button my stomach hurts to the touch. The soreness goes across most of my belly and to both sides of my belly button. If I were to match up the pain with one of the organs, it matches perfectly with the upper region of the large intestine. If I press down on the sore area, it’s very tight. The area above my belly button is also bloated looking. Sometimes there are sharp pains. Mostly moving from right to left.When the pain is really bad, walking hurts. It’s harder to stand up straight. My breaths are shorter. And transitioning from sitting to laying down can be really painful. I also can’t lay on my side, way too painful! It’s like my organs collide the wrong way!My last bowel movement was two days ago. Which for me is ‘normal’. But the bowel movement did not relieve any of my stomach soreness.Before I had constipation, I had a stomach ulcer. I realize both can be caused by dehydration. (I promise I’m trying to drink more water!)All I want to know is, if this soreness above my belly button is normal for constipation? Or do you think it’s something completely different?Is it something to be really concerned about?Or should I just continue a watery fiber diet and call it a night?

A: i suffer from IBS so i know your pain…yes it is normal to have stomach pain from constipation…the food is trying to move from you assending colon to your dessending colon with little to no moisture so its going to cause cramps…but i would definatly talk to your doctor because the amount of pain you seem to be in doesnt sound normal for only being two days since your last bowel movement…do you take a fiber supplement? i recommend benifiber because it really is tastless and the best part about it is you can cook with it…you can add it to your soups, spaghetti sauce, cereal, cookies anything! but i would definatly talk to your doctor about the pain.
