injections side effect question

My husband and I are going through IVF. I started the injections on Thursday and ever since I have been super tired.  Like falling asleep at 8.   I am taking Gonal F and Menopur. Has anyone else had these symptoms with injections?

I took Follistim, Antagon, and trigger shot.  I felt overly tired too!  I complained about it for the first few days.  It took a few days to get used to it.

I took Lupon, Gonal F and trigger shot, and through it all I was exhausted.  Do what your body tells you, take a nap if you can.  I know I went to bed one time before my daughter did! She tucked me in!  

Your body is going through some changes and it is exhausting.  Just listen to your body.

Good luck!

I was also taking Gonal-F (225IU) and Menopur (75IU) but had no side-effects.  Perhaps your body is working hard producing follicles  :)
Good luck!
