Will IVF Hormones Make Me Act Crazy? - Fertile Minds

When you go through an IVF cycle, you'll be given hormones to increase the number of eggs that you produce naturally in a menstrual cycle. Many are under the impression that these increased hormones will make you 'act crazy', but is this really the case?
Dr Joseph Sgroi, fertility specialist at Melbourne IVF, discusses the topic and what you can expect in terms of the increased hormones and your emotional state on an IVF cycle.
