Hi ladies,

I have only had 1 injection of zoladex which was 4 weeks ago. I’m getting my coil removed on the 23rd of August and want to try for a baby with my husband. The side effects where that serve with just having one injection I have cancelled the course.

Is it safe to try for a baby it will be 8 weeks after have only one injection of zoladex? X

Hi steph_D,

There's not a great deal of information out there about this, but I did manage to find the following on drugs.com:

"Following the last injection, non-hormonal methods of contraception must be continued until the return of menses or for at least twelve weeks."

If I've interpreted it correctly, it suggests you have to wait for the return of your periods and then at least 12 weeks after the last injection before trying to conceive. So as you're only 8 weeks post-injection, you'll need to wait at least another 4 before beginning to try.

Hope this helps... x
