OHSS, or ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome, is an exaggerated response of the ovaries that can occur in the context of treatments to stimulate ovulation. It causes the ovaries to enlarge and leads to other changes in the body.
Possible manifestations: among the discomforts described are abdominal pain or bloating, a feeling of swelling, nausea, and an increase in belly volume.
When to pay attention? It is especially important to watch for marked abdominal discomfort or symptoms that worsen after a fertility treatment.
Specialist who assesses it: the gynecologist is the one who follows up on this syndrome and on reproductive health. If you experience these symptoms after a stimulation procedure, the important thing is to report it to this professional promptly.
