I am 35 with pcos and extreme pelvic pain with high levels of facial hirsutism. I have just had my first zoladex injection and hoping for opinions of zoladex from people

Thank you x

Hi. I had Zoladex for two months and it really made a big difference with the pain but I stopped because it made me very depressed. Not everyone has depression with it so you just have to see how you go. I had my last injection on 29th June but am still feeling the benefits from it. Good luck. X

Thank you so much. I am hoping for as few side effects as possible

Ask for HRT with it too if you can. It really helped with the hot flushes and sleep problems. X

I have been given tibolone hrt so hopefully it will help. X

I had Zoladex for 6 months with the effects lasting another 3 months after that. It was the best 9 months of my adult life. That said I hadn't been diagnosed with endometriosis at that time, I was given it for various period problems but they didn't actually tell me I had endometriosis (which I almost certainly did).
