What are the common side effects of Suprefact?
The Suprefact nasal spray and injection is used to shut off or turn down your own hormone production in your pituitary gland and prevent you from ovulating too early. This results in a lowered estrogen level and the common side effects of hot flashes, mood swings and headaches. You can treat the headache with acetaminophen (or Tylenol) if needed. You may notice nasal irritation or dryness from the nasal spray until you get used to the effects. Please let the clinic know if you notice any effects with your vision. Do not be concerned if you do not experience side effects from the Suprefact. The baseline ultrasound will confirm that the Suprefact has done its job before starting the FSH injections.
