Is it normal for your ovaries to feel painful when coming off prostap?

Hi Cejay.

I have only Prostap right up until I had a hysterectomy and am currently back on it so I may not be the most experienced endo sufferer to reply to you.

As you know Prostap works by switching off the hormones and this includes those responsible for ovulating. Once Prostap injections have ended then your ovaries will begin to work normally again which means releasing eggs every month. This could be causing you pain and discomfort and is a sign that the Prostap has left your system.

Hope this helps
