After egg retrieval: wonky periods, bad skin?

| My nurse said I would bleed a couple of days after the egg retrieval which I did at the beginning of the month. My cycle usually comes at the end of the month, but it did not, and I seem to have a lot of acne all of a sudden in the areas near my chin which I think is usually hormone related. Is this common? Thanks! |

| Yes. Think about all the hormones, both natural and synthetic, that are coursing through you right now. Your cycles and skin and emotions are going to be a little off until all the medications have left your system and your levels have evened out. Go easy on yourself and don’t stress!! |

| It’s hormones. I did 5 stim cycles in a year and didn’t realize how crazy the hormones were until after I stopped. Especially with the acne, it may take a few months for everything to go back to normal. |
