The question
I am 37, have low egg count and poor egg quality in the last 3 egg retreivals. There is mild adenomyosis and possible endometrioma on my scans. I don’t have any known autoimmune conditions. My fertility specialist feels I might have endometriosis which is affecting egg quality and possible embryo implantation. They have recommended intralipid this time. I have noticed it’s 200kCal per infusion. Does intralipid cause weight gain? Or any long term side effects? Thank you for your time and generosity with sharing your knowledge.
Answer from Dr. Geoffrey Sher
It should not cause weight gain.
