Hey ladies. Ty for replying last feed.

Some im week 4 of prostap.

Pain relieved slightly but i also wonder whether this would have happened anyway?

The side effects tho...bloody awful.

Ive put on 5lb in 4 weeks. Diet definately not changed. Feel very bloated.

Hot flashes r horrendous !!!

Last few days i feel nauseous intermittently, shakey and really not myself. Like i could faint. This isn't constant.

This may sound weird but im sure ive hallucinated a couple of times.

Sex drive non existent and im 37 cmon!

This is my 6 week off work. Which im hating.

I have made app to see gynae tomorrow. Different consultant.

I do not want to have second injection.

Weight is a huge deal for me

Any thoughts gratefully received

Thank you

Hello Janie82,

Have you got a copy of the manufacturer’s Summary of Product Characteristics? It’s gives a more detailed account of Prostap’s potential side effects than the patient leaflet provides.

You can find it online here:

Are you taking add-back HRT alongside Prostap?
