Hi all, thanks for your responses.
Really? Sore bbs from O until a few days into AF? Yuck!!!! I hope this is a one off - not sure I want to spend 50% of my life with sore bbs!!
Satya - the bloods were to test for hormonal imbalances for PCOS. We've been trying to conceive without luck for 18 months so the doc sent me to have my hormone levels checked. My U/S indicated that I had polycystic ovaries according to my beast of a sonographer but I'll have to wait until tomorrow to know that for sure as I have an appointment to go through the films with my doc then. Sigh...
