Kourtney Kardashian is “finally” feeling normal after her IVF treatments caused weight gain and menopausal-like symptoms.
“Finally starting to get my energy back 10 months after IVF, for anyone else going through it, it gets better!” the 43-year-old wrote on Thursday’s Instagram Story, alongside a photo of her treadmill workout.
Kardashian and Travis Barker, who married in May after nearly a year of dating, have been open about their struggles to expand their family, with the Poosh founder admitting that “it hasn’t been the most amazing experience.”
In fact, Kardashian admitted that she was hesitant to try the procedure in the first place but felt “a little pushed” into it.

Son Landon, 18, and daughter Alabama, 16, are the two children that Barker has with his ex-wife Shanna Moakler. He also assisted in raising Moakler’s 22-year-old daughter from a previous relationship, Atiana De La Hoya, and the two are very close.
Mason, 12, Penelope, 10, and Reign, 7, are the three children that Kardashian has with her ex-boyfriend Scott Disick.
