Side effects from hormones

So far I haven't had too many side effects, but I do want to keep track of them for any future possible IVFs or other fertility treatments.

BCP: I've had the worst s/e on bcp. I was on Apri for 21 days for IVF, and bled pretty much the entire time (not just break though, actual flow). My RE told me to double up for a couple days, but I still bled. I also had slight nausea in the morning and headaches. Overall Apri just made me feel crappy (moody and bitchy).

Lupron: I had headaches for a couple days while I was on 10 ius, since I reduced to 5 ius I haven't had any headaches. The most annoying s/e has been the hot flashes; now I know what it will be like to go through menopause. I've woken up a few times in the middle of the night dripping in sweat (pretty gross).

Stims (Follistim and Menopur): I've only been on stims for two days, so so far I've only had the sting of injections. Follistim stings a little at the injection site for a few minutes after injecting. Menopur stings while injecting because it's thicker, and needs to be injected slower.
