I had a really positive experience with Zoladex, helped enormously with the pain and stopped bleeding completely (after a two week big bleed) reduced breast pain and I lost weight. I was only on it for 4 months prior to hysterectomy and endo excision so I didn’t take the addback HRT. I’d give it a go, if it’s not for you, you can always stop xx

Hi, I had a year of zoladex injections which worked for me. The only side effect I got was an it emotional the first 2 months and I got severe high blood pressure from them but that was controlled with tablets. As soon as course finished my pains and symptoms came back. Like you surgery isn’t an option. I started Prosap injections with HRT tablets in January and I feel amazing. I am on these now for 3 years then I will have a bone scan and tests to check I’m ok to continue with them. So I have had a positive experience with both. I hope you have the same experience and get some quality of life back xxxx
