Is it normal to have endometriosis symptoms after finishing prostap injections?

Hi everyone,

I’ve recently started treatment for my endometriosis even though I discovered I had it 3 years ago. When first told by my Gp I was offered the progesterone only pill as I cannot take the combined pill due to suffering migraines. I was not able to carry one with the treatment as it made me very depressed as I was already suffering with my mental health at the time. Fast forward to now and a new doctor I was given my first prostap injection in October and had my last one on the 18th of December, I was given one every month for three months. Today I’ve started having my usual endo symptoms but mildly, is that normal to have them so soon after the injection? I assumed it would have been a few weeks before I would start having symptoms again.

I’d really appreciate if anyone could let me know if they’ve experienced this before. Thanks
