So I came off of the birth control pill Cerazette a few days ago after having to start taking it again mid-way through TTC (long story and a frickin nightmare) and I don't remember feeling this rubbish last time I came off of it.
From what I remember from the first time, I came off the pill and after about 4-5 weeks got a period and all was fine. I didn't really suffer any awful PMS symptoms and the periods themselves weren't really any bother.
This time, although it's only been a few days I feel awful: bloated, stupidly tired all the time and I keep getting sharp cramping pains every so often. Is this kind of thing normal? I've looked online and gotten nowhere fast so I figured I'd ask you lovely ladies!
Also, as I now have to wait for my period to start before I can have a round of blood tests done (hormone profiles and checking to see if I ovulate) I'm wondering how I can help things along (not that I'm impatient, of course.....
)
I've heard that supplements such as CoQ10 can help but if someone who knows more about this kind of thing can offer advice I would be hugely grateful!!
