Hi ladies.

Currently on cycle day 27 down regging and 2moro last day of my tablets (norithesrone...prob not spelt right). We are on short flare protocol and supposed to stop tablets 2moro, have a bleed 2 to 3 days later have appointment next week on Thursday for prostap injection b4 starting gonal f injections.

Anyway its friday eve and clinic has closed and have some blood which could well be start of period. Its not supposed to start until monday or tuesday. Should i tell clinic and will thus effect the day they want to give me the prostap and start the gonal f? There is an emergency out of hours number but not sure this would be considered urgent. What u think? This happened to any of you? Help!

No didnt call as didn't want to be a pain and thankful i didnt as it stopped again straight away so not AF just some random blood. I'm sure its all fine just easy to panic at every little thing. How are you?

Oh good glad it stopped. I'm not bad too bad finding the injections easy enough to administer and no real physical side effects yet but emotionally I'm all over the place lol. I'm not sure if it's down to the hormones or worry or both. How are you doing otherwise?

Great. Im okay. Week before last was a moody angry mess and not sure but think it was the dhea. Was worried about the down reg tablets this week which stop today but if anything they've made me mellow. I've put on a tonne of weight over last month and hardly recognise my poor body but this will soon be over and if not successful i'll tackle that then. Sorry to hear about your moods. Often i think they are worse than any physical symptoms. Just remember they are due to drugs not you, they're not your fault and they will be over soon. I have a bit of a concern that i haven't stopped alcohol yet and feeling really bad but hopefully thats not make or break. Stopping monday and period due some time shortly after and def not doing anything im not supposed to after that. Hope you're having a nice weekend (well as nice as possible given ur poor hormone levels being all over the place.x

Aw I know it's hard to be 'perfect' during the cycle isn't it and cut out and do everything we're supposed to isn't it. But at the end of the day I think it mostly comes down to luck and how our bodies react so I try not to beat myself up too much. I've managed to get rid of alcohol but still keep picking up my vape, it's got very little nicotine in it now and I'll be going to zero nicotine on Monday. Like you I feel bad about it but its the one thing that helps me when I'm super stressed. But hopefully luck will be in our favour and if not we'll take it from there xo
