Pregnancy Symptoms After IVF: What to Expect

Pregnancy symptoms after IVF treatment can be similar to natural conception, but some may be masked by fertility medications. Understanding what to expect helps you navigate this exciting time with confidence.

Early Pregnancy Signs

Common early signs include missed periods, breast tenderness, fatigue, and nausea. However, some symptoms might be attributed to fertility medications rather than pregnancy.

When to Expect Symptoms

Pregnancy symptoms typically begin to appear 1-2 weeks after embryo transfer, though this can vary from person to person.

Distinguishing Between Medication and Pregnancy Symptoms

It can be challenging to distinguish between side effects of fertility medications and actual pregnancy symptoms. Your healthcare provider can help clarify what you're experiencing.
