Irony

Last weekend I started taking birth control pills, prescribed by my reproductive endocrinologist. I find this hilarious.

I was on The Pill for half my life, from ages 16 to 32. I stopped taking it 3 years ago, when we decided to get pregnant. We’re still waiting for that to happen, thus the reproductive endocrinologist. Who put me on The Pill.

We are starting injectable drugs this time around, so The Pill will help to keep my cycle in sync with the master plan. I have my long-delayed HSG test this week, so if I pass that, we are good to go. Birth control, indeed.
