If you are still struggling after 3 laps you really need referring to a tertiary specialist centre.

Hi there! First time replier, but I have also had 3 laps over the last 10 years (endo and now also suspected adenomyosis) and have just started on prostap 3 weeks ago and was similarly anxious.

For me it’s not been as bad as I’d feared so far. Injection itself was fine (and I am not great with injections!), I did take some paracetamol an hour beforehand. Pain was a bit worse last week but has reduced a lot now. Had a longer than normal bleed but that has stopped now. Feel really tired this week, am struggling to concentrate and a bit irritable which could be linked but I have got hrt to start to use when menopausal symptoms start so might start that sooner rather than later. Am due my next injection next week. Hope that helps 😊 x
