Hi,
Im not sure this is the right area for this question but i figured as most of you ladies have had considerable amounts of infertility treatment you may have some answers.
I had 7 IVF's and 2 ICSI's before i finally had my beautiful daughter, who is now almost 11!!.
I was and am a bit concerned about the after effects of the many drugs i had to take through my treatment. 11yrs down the line, im suffering with some bad abdominal problems which all seem to be pointing to the stomach as opposed to the uterine area, I think what i wanted to ask was can us ladies have an increased risk of ovarian cancer later in life because of the drugs?
Its always in the back of my mind, and worries me quite a lot. Just wondered if anyone had done any research into long term affects. Thanks.
