[Yammie1973]

Hi, has anyone reached day 10 of the Buserelin long protocol dosage of 0.5ml/50iu, what have been your side effects, if any, also have any of you had problems with AF whilst on buserelin?

I just need to see/compare notes witt others.

Thank you.

I felt extremely tired and a bit fuzzy headed. Had a bleed which is to be expected but not too much else until further in...around 18 days then the headaches came and that with the fuzzy heads felt like one big huge hangover!! I hope you aren't getting too many problems!!xx

I'm on day 13 of Buserelin now and so far all I've noticed really is that I'm more thirsty than normal.

Also had my period a couple of days ago which was actually less painful than normal but I think that may be as I had been on norethisterone.

I hope you're feeling ok x

Actually, my cycle started exactly on time with no side problems. All I have experienced so far is slightly more thirsty and one continuous headache. Come to think of it I work in finance so I have been slightly more listliss working on spreadsheets but nothing that I can't handle. I am extremely strong willed so maybe, not really noticing much else.

Thank you for the replies.

I got my period as normal and on time. I've had headaches, tiredness, mood swings and feeling hot particularly at night. I found drinking lots of water helped and just trying to rest as much as possible x

I cried all the time first week, had a 2 day migraine the second week and diarrhoea the third week!!! Was tired constantly and was in bed by 9 most nights. Worth it though as I now have 2 embies on board 3dt and in the 2ww!! Good luck xxx

Night sweats leading to tiredness were my worst symptom, and general pmt feelings.

I generally felt horrendous. Awful migraines, hot flushes, tiredness, physically aching, irritable etc. Once I started stimming though, my side effects improved. Good luck. Hope you're not as badly affected. xxx

Hi yammie, my side effects were the same as MrsC's. basically you're in a fake menopause... not fun. Soon ends when you start stimming! Just count down the days Hun ❤️

Absolute exhaustion, headaches and thirsty. My other half would tell you I was more moody than usual also, inthoufhttbibwas fine 😜

I've not been too bad, couple of headaches, a couple of emotional outbursts (crying) and a couple of hot sweats but overall not as bad as I thought it was going to be. Good luck xx ps oh and period heavier than usual and more painful

Hi I was fine for the first week and thought this is great!! Then the second week came and I had the most horrendous period pain and period. Towards the end of the second week I began with headaches and nausea, and just generally feeling exhausted all the time. I am now on day 18 and I have begun with awful hot flushes where I'm waking up in the night and my pjs are wet. It's not much fun and I'm having to be on it for an extra week till another scan on Monday. I think everyone is different with their symptoms. Good luck 😊
