New medication

[Trudie22]

Hi

I have the mirena coil am having zoladex injection and just started livial hrt just wanting feedback on livial what does it do? Does it help? What too expect? When I opened the pack it was alot like the contraceptive pill. Am having a full hysterectomy in 3 mths just wondering if all the medication will help or hinder.. any advice is welcome

Having Zoladex is induced menopause which is what I have. The livial and everol is hrt which helps reduce your menopause symptoms- it also protects your bones. I have hrt patches instead of tablets. I think if Zoladex works you don’t necessarily need a hysterectomy.

I am already having a hysterectomy as this is what I want too stop all symptoms

hi trudie, I was told that not to have any hrt or mirena because the endometriosis feeds off the estrogen in the hormone. So if you can come of them and wait for your hysterectomy

Mirena is synthetic progesterone only, not oestrogen, that's why it's used to manage endo
