Thank you so much for your advice, wise words, and tell it to me straight approach. I, myself, am a tell-it-to-ya-straight kinda gal, so I appreciate when others do the same with me.
Yes, I will follow the rules. I will begin the 3rd and final pack of BCPs as instructed and will continue taking the pills until my Feb. 13th appt. and until I receive the positive report that my hyperplasia is gone. You are all right...it's not worth it to mess around with my health and the doctor's orders, and a few extra weeks isn't a big deal in the scheme of things; especially in comparison to the 7-8 months that I have been waiting since my last BFP and mc.
And I did call the doc which helped me to finalize my decision. He instructed me to start the 3rd pack and said if I wanted, I could stop taking the pills after we get the lab results back that says the hyperplasia is gone.
(This will be the next decision I'll need to make: whether I should 1) stop the pill mid pack and potentially try to catch the eggie that month but likely messing up my cycle and essentially leaving me in the dark about when I O or when AF will come , or 2)finishing out the pack and knowing when AF will come, and thus ensuring that I know when I will O the following month. But I'll cross that bridge when I get there -- and feel free to provide any suggestions or input if ya want.)
For now, I will start the 3rd pack. Thank you all for your input. And as my ticker says - 16 more days till the appointment.
Often when a woman has a cyst they will have us do 10 days of the pill pack. Then check an ultrasound...if all clear you proceed. AF comes and you have another baseline and proceed as if you had taken 21 pills. (If you are dong injectables that is). I wouldn't worry about that aspect. Take it one day at a time, and the rest will fall into place!
ReplyDeleteGood luck sweetie!
Glad to hear you have resolution. Here's to Oing on schedule and a BFP on your next cycle...keeping my fingers crossed for you.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad that you made that decision. I know how difficult it is to wait, but I think in this case it is the right thing to do. We'll keep you company while you are waiting!
ReplyDeleteYou're so close! I hope this next eggie is the one.
