Rambunctious Ovaries

So I'm five days into my new bottle of lupron, the stronger stuff, and someone forgot to tell my ovaries that they are supposed to be behavin'. I've been been having loads of twinges in the ovary region that feel like mittleschmerzes as well as copious amounts of fertile CM.

And my libido should be absent. Right? I'm supposed to be in chemical menopause, aren't I?

At this point, I believe we'll be canceled when we got back to see Drs. Pompy and Russian. Something's just not right.

What gives?

Ooh, I hope its nothing... I don't know what I'm supposed to be feeling like but you've got me wondering now... Heres hoping all is still going according to plan. x

 

Blogger Pamplemousse said ... (1:05 PM) : 

I think your cysts are battling the lupron but it is hard to know what is going on. The 3 times I have been on suppression (twice with Synarel and once with depot lupron) felt very different to me. All 3 times, I always felt my ovaries rumbling and this was disconcerting as I expected them to feel totally quiet! On the depot lupron, which is supposed to be like a hammer to your ovaries, I still felt the same rumblings but also had the libido too! I hope you don't end up cancelled, sweetie!
