prostap injections

morning ladies, I had my second prostap injection a week ago. My first one after a week, settled down and I was okay for a couple of weeks, but this one I am struggling with. I seem to be constipated, my stomach is swollen, I keep getting sharp pains in my stomach and side. The tenderness of my stomach and back, with the endo is still there and I have like a dull period pain ache constantly. Can I ask if anyone else has had this sort of issue with their second injection, when the first one seemed to be okay? X

Hi Kay92jay

I have endometriosis, adenomyosis and fibroids so I’m having Prostrap to shrink everything back and to try and stop my excessive bleeding pre hysterectomy.

I’ve just had my 3rd and I can say that during the month of my 2nd I had all kinds of aches and pains /pulling sensation around my ovaries !! And a swollen/bloated stomach,particularly in the evening plus some bleeding.

It seems to have settled down now, I spoke to the endo nurse yesterday and she said it was normal and by the end of the 3rd month most of the symptoms should have stopped..including the bleeding(in my case).

Hope this helps x
