I have been on bcp's for about 2 weeks now in preparation for the upcoming IVF next month. And let me tell you: I have NO idea how people live on these things!!
There must be a whole bunch of progesterone in these things, my boobs are completely sore. Not so much as with the suppositories, although I was making my own then in addition to adding some to the body, but still sore nonetheless. That isn't so bad. BUT, the cravings / aversions! OMG! I remember for a while that once in a while I get these cravings where absolutely NOTHING else seems remotely appealing - even food that I normally love makes me feel like puking at the thought of it. I just put it together yesterday that this happens during the two week wait! In other words: PROGESTERONE!
For two weeks now I have been getting randomly nauseous and have been having a hard time figuring out what to eat that won't make me gag and literally feel completely ill. Even when I find the right food and then eat it, I still feel ill afterward. At least I didn't feel like puking when it was going in I suppose.
I get at least another month of this, and then, if I am lucky, at least another 3 months after that!
