Ready. Set. Impregnate!

by Jen on December 14, 2010

After one week back on Tina’s meds, I am happy to report they are still the bomb, and I have already cycled.  Seriously, these pills don’t play.  It’s amazing how well they work.  I take one measly little pill (which is smaller than a birth control pill) once a week and it bitch slaps my tumor right in the face.  Efficient.  I do have to cop to one massive emotional break down over the shirt I wore to my company Christmas party, but that’s it.  Not too shabby.  I mean honestly, who hasn’t cried over a Christmas sweater at least once in their life?  Answer me that.
It’s a little alarming, though.  If this teensy little dopamine receptor antagonist can cause such  quick and thorough changes in my hormonal system, I have a whole new respect for the hormone treatments and drugs associated with assisted reproduction technologies (known to my people as ART).  So, I tip my hat (I’m not really wearing a hat) to all the infertile men and women who surrender their bodies and sanity to ART for the sake of building their families.  Come on body… just get pregnant the regular way.  Life will just be easier if you cooperate, I promise.  Now that I’m cycling again, I’m gonna put you to the test.  Ready. Set. Impregnate!

Good luck on this cycle! Thanks for stopping by my blog. Sounds like we have a ton in common. I personify everything, too. Maybe it is a Kansas thing. :-) I look forward to checking out your blog.

Oh I can't wait. Did you ever check out Fertility Friend? I am on there every day. I would have been lost without those people:)

Thanks Junebug! Crystal: I hadn't charted anything until I recently started my period. I'm sort of feeling my way through it now. Thanks again for the recommendation!

Good luck! And remember, and advice anyone gives you is bullshit. Do what you feel is right.
