I had a 16 day cycle this last time. Both times, it has started with hardly any warning. Other than the intense cramping a day or 2 before. Still no update from the doctor. I'm starting herbs on Tuesday. I'd do it tomorrow but they make me feel horrible at first, and I have a meeting first thing in the morning. And I want to call and see what's up with this appt too before starting just in case they can see me this week. I kind of want to see what is going on in there before using the herbs and clearing it up.
In my perfect world, I wouldn't need anything daily to keep me normal. But at this point, I'm afraid it's going to be either the herbs or birth control to keep me from going totally crazy. I wish that the herbs could be once a day because it would be so much easier. Must do more research later. For now, I'm exhausted. And crampy. Stupid period. Stupid PCOS. Blah.
I'll probably be on metformin for the rest of my life. Eh. I'd rather be on it than BCPs. I don't know if I could do the herbs on long time schedule... they are nasty tasting right? Ick. That must be hard to do everyday.
ReplyDeleteI haven't started the herbs back up yet. I'm just not into it enough right now. They do taste weird but you get use to it after a few weeks. The worst part is taking them 3 times a day. I'm too busy to keep track of it right now.
