Hi I’m on the depo and when I first started I got a full ache pain around the area of where it was injected so a bit different to yours maybe I would say you can always ring your gp and ask about these aches?
Yeah I had some endo removed last year and had the same pains I get now. I also had a cyst drained during surgery but it may have filled up again but I’m not sure xx
Oh right I see I had endo removed a few weeks ago and also got adeno and my pains are awful now 🙈
Yes I’ve had cysts before and always had a dull ache and was a lot worse when my doctor pressed in that area... have you gone back to your doctor about the symptoms your getting? Xx
I would but the waiting time in my area are ridiculous like I’ll be waiting 4-6 months before I’m seen. However, I’m now getting pains with the injection but I have only just started it xx
I'm have the same problem since my last zoladex injection. Injection are bleed then had a small lump and was sore for at least a week after and pelvic pains so bad this time and still had my heavy period and small bleed 2 weeks later. Ended up at walk in on wednesday as docs said to ring gyny but secretary couldn't get a reply from consultant. They couldnt help and called the on call gyny who said get me a appointment with my consultant. Feels like someone is pressing on my right ovary I also have a cyst. I am waiting for a full hysterectomy. My daughter is getting married in 8 days and just want to feel ok for the wedding But don't really want my next zoladex injection on Tuesday after the month I have had but also don't want to be flooded for the wedding 😔. Hope you get sorted soon as it some destroying and people don't really understand the pain at times xx
It’s a pretty large injection which is why they often inject it in the gluteal muscle. Mine usually hurts bad for 24 hours then minor aches for a few days! Don’t worry unless it’s been over a week.
Yeah that pain has gone now from the injection site but my ovaries and pelvic area/ Pubic bone area are really sore like how it used to be all the time
What they told me, is when you first get it, your estrogen initially increases in response to the hormone then it gradually decreases. This rise in estrogen can cause increased pain for 1-2 weeks!
I had my injection about a week ago and my bum still hurts and that's usually the case everytime I get it. I've got on really well with the depo and I think it's been my saving grace with halting endometriosis growth. I've been on it too long thou and need to come off it now. It will take time for your body to adjust as it's a high level of progesterone going into your body
