anyone react badly to buserelin and menopur?

[Maggie272]

hi everyone

hope you are all keeping well

just wonder if anyone out there suffered with depression while taking buserelin and menopur? I've always had trouble with anxiety, but the grinding depression is something new, and I'm starting to wonder if it's just me, or is it me on the meds. I suppose the tiredness caused by the meds doesn't help, but I'm feeling so down and negative, even having thoughts about walking out the door and not coming back...I'm not normally like this. The nurses said I would feel better once I started taking the menopur, but so far I don't...would appreciate any thoughts xx

much love

When I down regged with Buserelin (FET) I felt awful, really down and miserable. I kept saying to dp that I can't describe how shit I felt, it did pass once I stopped and I don't feel like that if I'm also taking stims. Sorry you're feeling so shit. I'm actually really worried going into another FET as I'm sure I'll be on it again. It's evil.

yeah, it is evil...i just thought i'd feel a bit better after two shots of menopur. thanks so much for writing back! x

I struggled with buserelin too, I was very tearful and depressed - I struggled to eat and nearly handed in my notice at work because I felt like I couldn't bear to even get out of bed in the morning. My mood did improve with the stims.

I was on Buserelin for 6 weeks before a frozen transfer. It was the worst 6 weeks of my life. I almost decided I didn't want a transfer and I was leaving my husband. I kept panicking and crying. My mum kept telling me it's just the drugs but I couldn't see that at the time. I was convinced it was me. Try and plod on knowing it isn't you. But I will never have that drug again!
