I am easily bruising all my life. Think it is due to Endo.

sometimes it does bruise quite a bit. But maybe speak to the endometriosis nurse that gives the injection?

Hi

I too am getting random bruises but around my knees. I have injections in my arm. I was told they go in your arm or thigh only? I’ve had two injections now, changing arms each time. I’ve gone straight onto them from 15 months of zoladex.
