Hello! I have been put on zolodex and wondered if anybody else has had problems with weight gain? I have been dieting for 3 weeks at slimming world, have been being active and have lost 1/2 a pound! It's so demoralising! Not sure if I am being hard on myself as its only 3 weeks post op. Thank you x

Hi, when I was on zoladex I put on a few kilos but not more. I found that my metabolism somehow slowed down (usually my body burns everything quite fast and I Need to eat very regularly but on zoladex it was as if my body didn't need as much food all the time). I know it sounds easy and it's really difficult when your body is not doing what you want it to do but try to be nice to yourself and your body. The zoladex is quite a powerful drug. I wish you all the best !
