Prostap and weight gain

Hi ladies,

I'm on a 3 month injection of prostap ( 2 months in) and have put on about 5lbs even though exercising and healthy eating.

Has anyone else experienced this and have any advice? Does it get better once injection is finally out of the system or get worse if I have another injection?

Thanks xx

Hi, I had 3 x monthly Prostap injections with add back HRT at the beggining of the year and I put on 10lbs and went up 3 bra cup sizes!! Have not had an injection since the end of March, no period as yet 😁 and my weight and chest size have returned to my pre Prostap state (thank goodness)!.

I suppose it's weighing up the pros and cons of these treatments.

Good luck x
