How do I reduce my chances of OHSS?

[Tetley]

Is there something I can do to eliminate my chances of getting OHSS or is it purely how your body reacts and there is nothing beyond that to change it?

I posted a similar thread in the IVF section but thought you might be able to offer some of your expertise?

I don't think there is too much you can do. OHSS has to do with predetermined factors (age, weight, fsh) and your dosage. Know that the clinic doesn't want you to develop it, so there will do everything in their power to keep it from happening. The only thing that may have a factor is maintaining a healthy lifestyle - good clean diet, lots of water and regular exercise (walking, moving, etc). By keeping your body in the best state, you are likely to have an optimal response to the meds.

Hope this helps!
