As mentioned above, I've not long started my 3rd round of 6months on Prostap.
The first two rounds were fine (spanning over the last two years)
I was told after the first injection to expect my next period, which happened and after that my periods ceased whilst I was on Prostap.
This time on my 3rd round, I had my "normal" period after the injection. It's been 6weeks since the first jab and I've been spotting for the past 4 days. This never happened on my first two rounds.
The only difference between now and the first two times is I'm an ovary down.
Anyone else experienced this?
Thanking you all in advance xxxx

I was diagnosed 2 years ago. Mainly on the left ovary - endometioma and in the pouch of Douglas. Left ovary was removed last November and pain has been increasing over months. My gynae said Prostap was the only option. No HRT given, I can have it if the night sweats and daily sweats become worse. X
I had decapeptyl earlier this year for 5 months and I spotted on it regularly, around the time my period would have been due. It was discontinued after the 5th injection because I had a major pain flare a week after the injection. According to the hospital it's not common but sometimes it unfortunately doesn't work properly.
I am due for my third injection on Friday and am very hesitant to have it as on the first and second I had a major flare up and was hospitalised.never had a bleed but been bloated since.will the flare ups settle? Also the sweats are ridiculous but seem to be calming down now.hopefully.
