Prostap experiences

Hi

Had Prostap injection almost 2 weeks ago now. I’ve been diagnosed with andeno but they think I’ve also got endo. Obviously massive wait times to get anything done so they’re trying this to help the pain. Pain hasn’t gone at all and I’ve been bleeding (a lot for me). I know they said it can take 4 weeks to kick in but any light at the end of the tunnel from other’s experiences, please? Or not, just how has it worked (or not) for you? Pain so bad yesterday & today, I couldn’t go to work.

I had a period after the first injection and then five months of no periods which was amazing. It does cause weight gain though and it's like a fake menopause I think you will be really hot. Mine worked well.
