I am on cilest continuously to try and limit bleeding. I had it before surgery but still had pain. Then had the zoladex, still had pain. Then had excision surgery and still in pain. Am back on cilest continuously. Think zoladex has worn off as I am bleeding even on the pill. Also very down, crying all the time and mood swings! Going to discuss it at my next appointment. Have you had a diagnosis of endometriosis? Any scans or laparoscopies? Who prescribed it? I had severe pain with sex (amongst other pains) and tests showed I had severe endo in the recto-vaginal area, that is one of the indicators. Do you have pain going to the toilet? Sorry to ask. If so, maybe you need to ask to be referred to a specialist to look into it further.

Good luck
