Bcp crying fit

Justone13Justone13 member
in Infertility
Every and I mean every time I take this stupid effing bcp I have a straight crying fit. Is anything wrong or sad going on? Nope it's just this horrible pill. Do I cry on stims? Nope just bcp.

Dear bcp,

I really really effing hate your guts.

Ps. you can keep that migraine shit too.

    BCP was way worse than stims! I couldn't believe it when my nurse warned me of it... She was right! Besides bloating, stims side effects were actually nice... It reversed the acne that evil BCP left behind!!!;)

    I don't remember many side effects the last time I went on them, but I have been on them almost a week and have gained 2 lbs and had no energy. They are torpedoing my weight loss goal that I had set for myself before I started IVF #4.

    So glad it isn't just me! With IVF #1 I didn't notice any bcp side effects but this time I find myself *needing* to cry for no reason. Since we just finished IVF #1 with a bfn I know my body and mind have been through a lot. I managed to be reasonably sane during the whole process last time but this time I can't even keep it together on bcp...ugh! Sounds like it is a common boat to be in though :-)

    God, BCPs are evil !!!

    What annoys me beyond belief is how it can make you hungry enough to eat an entire truck but also has that accompanying nausea that just makes you hate food! WTF are we supposed to do ??? ughhh....I am living on smoothies right now & a glass of wine on Friday after months of being good was actually fun :)

    DH :  36, has Chronic Kidney Disease, on dialysis & is waiting on the transplant list (average wait for B+ is 5 years)

    Me:   36, Hypothyroidism, PCOS, BMI 32, need to be done with "child bearing" ASAP so that I can be a Kidney donor (was fun realizing we didn't as much time as we thought :-/ )

    We're TTC#1

    IUI #1 : 5mcg Letrozole (CD 3-7) + Ovidrel Trigger + Had the one follicle = BFN  (March 2014)

    IUI #2 : 5mcg Letrozole (CD 3-7) + 150 iu Bravelle on CD9 (after much begging!) + Had the one follicle = BFN (April 2014)

    7th May 2014 - changed REs, this one seems to care (we think....)

    IUI #3 : 7mcg Letrozole (CD 3- 7) + 75 iu Bravelle (CD 8-12) + CD12 Scan 5/16 + Had 3 follicles (2 under 15mm) = BFN(May 2014)

    IUI #4 : 7mcg Letrozole (CD 3- 7) + 75 iu Bravelle (CD 8-12) + CD12 Scan 5/16 + Had 1 follicle + DH gave best sample so far = BFN(June 2014)

    IVF#1 -  ER Only Cycle Sept-Oct 2014, 17  eggs Retrieved, 14 mature, 10 fertilized, 6 made it to Blast & post PGS  5 were not viable due to chromosomal abnormalities
    Not sure where we go from here...

    We're parents to two very adorable, bratty, affectionate & goofy Bernese Mountain Dog pups who would very much like a 2 legged baby brother or sister of their own!
