I’m so frustrated!!!! This has been such a long journey and my cycle has barely started . It has involved wrong appt dates and cancellations being made and I’ve had to postpone the start of my cycle for about 3 months and now finally ready to start and someone forgot to action my prescription although I was literally sat there when they said they were putting a request in and so I will not be receiving the medication in time to start my cycle . This is all after I have called and talked to 4 different people today ..3 of whom took my number to call me back once they could locate my file to find out why I was yet to recieve my drugs and got no call back and now it’s 6 pm so they have obviously closed for the day . While I appreciate most ladies have had more frustration with the actual process, I feel that the process of getting there has been hard enough I’m ready to postpone for another year! I’m not sure if this is a result of being an NHS patient and probably people going on private get better admin and customer support but this is soooo frustrating! My husband has the issue and while he is being supportive I’m frustrated and don’t want him trying to make it better.. I know I know it’s not his fault and I should feel awful saying this but I’m just frustrated. Maybe I should add that I hate and I’m soooo terrified of injections and it’s taken all my strength just to get to this point . I’ve been up most of this week late into the night not being able to sleep and worried about injecting myself and while this almost feels like my way out of it for now .. I’m still soooo angry. I just needed a rant. So now my question .
If the drugs do eventually come and I’ll probbaly have started my cycle by then.. can I keep them and start on the next month or so I have to go through the whole process of meeting and planning again?

Thanks .. I hope so too.. it’s my first time on the site and I’ve spent the past hour reading through posts and comments and i feel much better. It seems like a very supportive environment and considering how private I ( and most people here ) are .. it’s good we have this place we can just take it out and people get you .. all the best to you too whichever stage you are on in your journey ❤️❤️
Hey, I’m sorry to hear you are going through this - the journey is difficult enough without having these sort of added stresses! Fortunately my clinic was quite good at communicating, appointments etc and they’re an NHS clinic too - hopefully yours will start being a bit more responsive and efficient!!
I would definitely ask your clinic the question about your meds, but I was told mine lasted 3 months so hopefully you’ll be fine with the prescription you have.
Sending you loads of love and positive vibes 💕 this is a great place to vent and get support so hopefully being on here will help xx
Well that’s reassuring ! I will definitely ask tomorrow. Our anniversary is on the 30th and we had held off our holiday to get through the first stages and now we are just thinking of booking a holiday and moving it all forward .. sigh... but anyway .. we will get there eventually ..😊❤️
Maybe a holiday will help you to relax before your cycle? Whatever you choose to do, wishing you the best of luck xxxx and happy anniversary for the 30th xx
🤞 they arrive in time for you to start this cycle.
My 1st cycle my period came b4 i got the medication delivery, clinic just moved everything along a month. It was NHS too.
It is very frustrating and i totally get what you mean about the injections having to mentally prepare yourself, i was very scared of needles but got over my fears eventually. Xx
My period is always sooooo on time it’s ridiculous (apart from when I travel abroad) .. its a relief to know I can possibly move it a month .. It messes a lot of our plans for us for the next two months but we will wait and see how it goes .. it’s annoying that I’ve got home and received an invoice for time lapse photography and endoglue... they apparently did not forget to send that through !!! 😂
