Weepy

Steph1673 · July 2014

I have been extremely weepy the last few days and also have found it difficult to concentrate at work and have had trouble falling asleep this entire cycle. I just finished my first medicated cycle on letrozole (IUI BFN) and will start my second Friday at a higher dose. My DH thinks it's the meds, but really, I thought letrozole had a short half life and the last time I took it was 20 days ago, so why weepy now? Anyone else feel this way in their early treatments with letrozole? Or just early IF in general?

Maybe it's just AF.

Maybe it's just the the emotions that go into the realization that I'm truly dealing with IF and my first failed treatment cycle catching up with me.

If it is the meds, I just want to prepare myself since I'm about to increase my dose here in two days.

I actually get absolutely furious on my first day on letrozole... it's really crazy. The progesterone makes me act a bit weepy though.

I'm sorry you are feeling this way. Your hormones are all over the place, failed cycles SUCK and it takes a while to bounce back. Not to mention the extreme emotional roller coaster that is IF. My back ground is social work so my recommendation is always to see a therapist. I think everyone can benefit from a good mind massage, even people who are not going through crap this deep. 2IF is a really hard thing to come to terms with, especially if you didn't have primary IF (I'm sorry, I can't remember if you did or not)

This whole thing has me struggling with some pretty severe depression

I've been seeing a therapist for a few years and I recently went on zoloft, when I started having daily panic attacks and social anxiety, and that is helping a lot. Big ((hugs)) to you and I hope you start feeling better. We are here to talk if you need us.

Thanks. You're correct, I did not deal with primary IF, just secondary so this is new ground. Talking to someone is probably a good idea, but it's just another thing to look into and fit into my busy schedule. I'll have to look into this though.

Big hugs all around. I hope it's just AF.
