Pain on both sides of lower abdomen after transplantation

Many patients often complain of abdominal discomfort or even abdominal pain after transplantation. They are worried that this situation will affect their pregnancy. In fact, these symptoms need to be treated differently. For example, mild abdominal pain, sometimes like a needle prick, in an uncertain location and at an uncertain time - this situation is generally not serious. Infertile patients tend to pay too much attention to their abdomen, which is actually a result of excessive mental stress. However, if the symptoms of discomfort gradually worsen, you should go to the hospital for treatment.

Precautions after IVF transplantation

1. Rest in bed for 48 hours after arriving home, except for going to the toilet. You can sleep on your back, side, or stomach, but don't get up. You can lie on the bed at an angle, but the angle must be less than 45 degrees.

2. Do not take a bath within 48 hours.

3. After the transplant, avoid strenuous exercise, such as jogging or cycling, but walking slowly is good for your health and safety.

4. Don't pick up anything heavy until after the pregnancy test. I calculated that 1/2 gallon weighs about 1.89 liters.

5. When you get up, don't sit up all at once. Turn sideways first, support yourself with your hands on the bed, and get up slowly.

6. Things that cannot be eaten after transplantation: No supplements; no food that promotes blood circulation and removes blood stasis; no food that has the function of removing dampness and toxins: such as tonic medicine, lotus root, sesame oil, watercress, black fungus, longan, and coix seed.

7. Do not apply a hot water bottle to your stomach as the high temperature may cause the baby to die or become deformed.

8. Do not go up or down stairs within 3 days after transplantation.

9. Be sure to stay calm, don’t be anxious, and don’t be angry.

10. If you experience abnormal abdominal pain, bloating, or vaginal bleeding, contact a medical institution immediately so that you can receive immediate treatment to preserve the pregnancy. Therefore, whether you need to lie down or take a leave to rest after the embryo is implanted is decided by the expectant mother, because these measures will not affect the success rate of IVF. But if you have time, please rest as much as possible. If you have constipation, do not force a bowel movement, wait until you feel the urge to defecate. You can also supplement folic acid to help the embryo develop normally.
