Is Back pain Common during IVF? Dr. Jenny Cook

It’s very common after an egg retrieval for a couple of days to have sharp shooting pains, which are typically pelvic pains.

Some women may experience a degree of back pain. Our understanding is that it’s probably due to a small amount of blood just irritating the pelvis. It’s very common, and it resolves by itself.
