Effects of finishing zoladeX

Hi guys I'm just curious of the effects of finishing zoladeX. Had my last injection about 20th October. Today's 10th December and I have very sore breast and have thrush coming. Are these side effects of my hormones getting back to normal?

If only one breast is sore - there might either be a pulled muscle behind it, or you might have an infection- and it should be checked out by your GP if it persists more than a few days..

If both are sore- then that's a sign of hormonal activty- sounds like your ovaries could be waking up there a bit sooner than average.

Again the fact you have thrush coming on indicates a change in the chemical make up of the vagina- which is brought about by hormone changes. Should be easily sorted with a trip to the chemists for thrush creams or meds. The zoladex dries out the vagina surface, but when you come off it and the system gets rebooted the natural lubrication returns and that can mean a haven of the right climate for thrush to take hold - if you don't nip it in the bud and get it treated promptly.

Not what you're looking for?
