I took my first pill three nights ago (like Indy, the middle of the night works best for me) and I swear I felt better that day. I was walking to the store, and it dawned on me that a weight had been lifted. I know this is impossible, but I think my hair seems a little better. It feels soft. That could just be wishful thinking, but my boyfriend even thought so.

I wonder how long I've had this. I never had the weight gain that usually is the main symptom, but I've always been cold and tired. At least since high school. Maybe it was a little low all along, then the BC treatments affected it? But so far, so good. I felt really strong on my commute yesterday, too.

Good luck, Jess. The test didn't hurt at all. I hope you get clear answers.
