What Should I Know About the Side Effects of Fertility Treatments?
Fertility treatments like in vitro fertilization (IVF) and ovulation induction can cause multiple side effects. Common side effects include bloating, headaches, mood swings, and abdominal pain. Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is a rare but serious side effect of fertility medications, causing swollen, painful ovaries and fluid accumulation in the abdomen and chest.
