Painful Cycles? Posted: 03-07-07 19:48pm
Have any of you ladies gone off of
hormonal birth control to try to become
pregnant? If so how were your cycles
coming off? I have been in so much pain
with heavy, heavy bleeding. I spoke to my
doc today and she said that it is
completely normal. I asked if it will get
better as the cycles progress. She said
that sometimes they get
better....sometimes they get worse. I have
done nothing but cry for two days. I want
children more than I can verbally express.
But i am felling very upset. I just don't
know if I can do this every month. It
could take years to get pregnant. Im
sorry, I just had to vent to someone who
will understand.

Painful Cycles Posted: 03-07-07 19:57pm
Hi Mc,
I went off the pill in June 2005. I was
on the pill for over 10 years. oh yes the
periods were really painful, and boom I
got pregnant 2 months later.
unfortunately I had a m/c due to thyroid
problems and them my cycles got even more
painful. My doctor gave me a special pain
medicine that saved my life. The pain was
so bad, I would roll back and forth in
pain and tears. Now, as soon as I feel
the pain coming, I take the pill only
once. It is called Toradol. In fact that
is the same pain as m/c. That is how bad
it is without this medication. Good luck,
and don't worry. All it takes is a
pill...

Thank you so much for your response. I
will ask my doctor about it tomorrow. It
really is one of the most painful things
that I have ever experienced. Its funny
because i looked it up online before i
went off to see what i might experience.
No one mentioned this. I am literally
crying as I write this. The pain mixed
with the mood swings are just insane!

Remember that it is not a dangerous thing
and at least ease your mind there. I
remember taking motrin or ever 5 or 6
advils at a time, and even that didn't do
it for me until I got that perscription.
Take is easy and don't worry. The pain
will pass and hopfull next month you don't
have to go through this again.
