Kourtney Kardashian says IVF medication caused weight gain and 'put her into menopause'

Kourtney Kardashian has opened up about her IVF struggle - which apparently ended up causing early menopause and weight gain – amid trying for baby for her Blink-182 beau Travis Barker.

In the trailer for the new Hulu show, Kourtney could be seen and heard announcing that she wanted to have a baby with her fiancé.

"Travis and I want to have a baby," she declared in the clip.

The 42-year-old Keeping Up With The Kardashian's star also revealed that she was undergoing IVF in order to conceive with her fiancé.

As well as dropping those two bombshells, she also explained how the IVF medication she took in order to help her conceive a baby with her beau ended up triggering early menopause.

Not only did it supposedly trigger the menopause, but it caused her to gain weight too.

In a new teaser trailer for her upcoming series The Kardashians, which will air on Hulu, the Poosh founder can be seen chatting about attempting to conceive.

In the since deleted clip Kourtney could be seen speaking about it to her mum Kris Jenner.

She confided in her 'momager' about how she had "gained so much weight" due to the IVF, before opening up about cruel trolls who left comments on social media.

She said: "I’m, like, it’s so rude to comment on people when you have no idea what they’re going through.

"The medication that they’ve been giving me, they put me into menopause."

"Based off of what? A drug?" Kris asked her daughter. "Yes," Kourtney replied.

In the clip Kourtney didn't fully explain herself, meaning we don't know if she was actually going through the menopause or experiencing menopause-like symptoms.

Kourtney speaking about a rude comment could relate to one that she received in December 2021, on a snap of the star in a pool.

At the end of last year one fan asked Kourtney if she had a "preg belly" below an Instagram snap.

At the time Kourtney replied to the cruel comment and penned: "Are we really going to do this every time I post a photo?"

Lovers of PDA, the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star and the Blink-182 drummer got engaged after less than one year of dating.

In October Travis got down on one knee on a lavish beach to ask Kourtney to be his wife.

Kourtney already shares three kids with her ex Scott Disick, and Travis is a dad-of-two, of which are from his marriage with ex-wife Shanna Moakler.
