What Causes Swollen Stomach After The Last Ivf Attempt?
My stomach is still swollen 4 months after my last ivf attempt. It can be very uncomfortable especially after eating (sometimes just eating a really small amount can leave my stomach completely swollen and huge for ages after). Not sure what to do to help this and whether this is normal?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, the given history could be suggestive of abdomen distension and it may not be due to the IVF but it could be due to dyspepsia, but it is the temporary condition once the flatus escaped the abdomen comes to normal shape, if the abdomen is in distension all along he way then it could be obesity or it needs to be ruled out for GI diseases.
If no symptoms you have but only big belly then it may not be the swelling but it could be due to obesity.
hope this information helps.
