Just started taking BCP

Hi, I'm new.. I just recently asked my Dr to put me on BCP.. I had been ttc for over 2yr's and after 7m/c's I just needed a break.. My Last loss being back in March..at the time I did Not have a DR.. and my old Dr.. did not seem to care. Anway, She put me on Triphasil-28.. I have had no side effect's..actually this pill has helped my depression.. which I did not expect! I have noticed that my Cm has been more noticeable when it normally would be dryer.. I also just started noticing Sore bb's...Sometimes I do get this as a PMS sign..but sometimes not.. I also had some cramping for a few day's as well... I've never been on any form of BC.. and I had heard that Yasmin is more recommended for woman with PCOS..I also want to point out I have not been Diagnosed yet and my Dr is willing to help me find out.. But it's pretty obvious I have some form of it.. Anyway.. since i seem to be doing fine on this pill..is it an ok choice for a few months while I take a break? I would be very appreciative for anyone's thoughts on this.

Thanks' so much!

HI thanks for the reply.... Well, I was with a Dr. up until last year .. and he just kept saying that I'm young and that I'll EVENTUALLY hold a PG... After a very unprofessional incident with his nurses..I stopped going to him..and Didnt have a dr up until this month.. So I went with out any help for a year... that's when the wait gain started and the other symptoms... So my New Dr. is going to start checking me for PCOS and also to see if there are any other problems... and I knew I needed a break So I chose to get on BC until we found out what is going on... She might put me on Met.. Or refer me to an RE... I'm not sure yet..because I just started seeing her.
