Really My Body Can Do That...

Monday is a day that I thought would never come again.

For the last what feels like forever but in all actuality is only like 14 months I have been battling PCOD. With us wanting to add to our little family that is promblematic. I have not a had a spontaneous time of the month and that is needed in order for the little egg to meet the little sperm. I take medication to make me have a period but that medication does not make me ovulate.

I have been on Metformin to try to regulate my periods and to help control symptoms. One symptom is no hair loss or very little shedding. I was of the no shedding variaty. A couple of weeks ago I noticed that I was loosing hair at an alarming rate. I mean it would clog the drain in the shower in the span of one shower. I paniced!! Literally I call my husband balling "Honey, I'm going bald!! Will you love me if I'm bald? Will you? WILL YOU??"

You can just imagine the response I got. We'll just say my husband is not the most sympathtic person. Yeah, so, it was interesting to say the least. I was moody, cranky, weepy, and bitchy all week. I was not used to PMSing so I had not associated all the symptoms for what they were until I realized what was going on.

At that point I had to appologize to my husband for being such a spaz and then I got to yell at him for not being more sympathetic.

I can laugh about it now but it was a great concern a couple of weeks ago. It does feel good to have less hair finally. I had forgotten how nice it was to shed. I don't care if I am finding my hair everywhere again.

So I spent the week being bloated and crampy. Wonderful. Just how I wanted to spend a beautiful week in July.
