Hi everyone

So ive juts come back from a follow up appointment with my consultant and I'm feeling a bit deflated. After trying desogestrel alongside mirena for 3 months which caused me nothing but issues my consultant has now suggested I try Zoladex injection for 6 months. I'm a bit worried as this will put me into temporary Menopause so I'm worried about the possible side effects. Has anyone else been prescribed this and has this helped with pain/bleeding?

If this doesn't work I'll have to have another laparoscopy. I just feel like there's no light at the end of the tunnel!

Thanks x
