The Pieces of My Life: Now What.

Now What.

I started the pill 10 days ago. I started spotting a few days ago and yesterday I started bleeding. Full on red flow. Why cant my body ever just cooperate and do what its supposed to??!! I called my RE because I wanted to know if this was going to mess up my plans to cycle next cycle...I mean he did put me on the pill to REGULATE me and all. I finally heard back from them today, and after some talks about switching pills or stopping them and starting them again, I was told to just continue taking them and call on my "real" CD 1. Who knows when that's going to be.....what a headache. I'm crampy, moody, and I feel like I am on AF, and I'm bleeding, but its CD 10. What gives?

Nothing can ever be easy in this department for me, so I don't see why I would expect anything else at this point.

Easier said than done, but try not to let this discourage you. It's somewhat common and a sign that your body is responding to hormones - which is a good thing. I'm crossing my fingers and praying that this cycle works for you!

Lisa said...: yes, I'ev heard of breakthrough bleeding, but I didnt think it would be like a full flow. We'll see what happens. Thanks for the advise!; March 17, 2011 at 7:45 PM
