Worried about Zoladex

Hey guys!

I'm new here and have only recently been diagnosed with endometriosis after a battle to get a diagnosis for 3 years!

I recently had laparoscopy where they found and removed as much as they could using helica. My consultant has now told me about Zoladex but I'm feeling really worried about the side effects.

I feel like I should try whatever I can to prevent the endometrosis from developing. I have read some sad stories online where it has attacked the ovaries etc and prevented women from getting pregnant. On the other hand I am also terrified of the side effects of Zoladex.

Did anyone else face this problem? What did you guys do for the best?
