Hello, i am experiencing very bad pelvic and lower back pain. i am 35 with adenomyosis, i didn't know i had this until i had an MRI. They put me on prostap 3 and i have had none stop pelvic pain and on/off bleeding. I am nearly 9 weeks in to the 3 monthly injection. Please help, is this normal? i haven't taken any HRT yet. Thank you!

I have no advice but I also had worse pain when on prostap. I put it down to the hrt so took it at night. It's also possible maybe I would have experienced worsening pelvic pain anyway.

I had my final 3 month prostap in November and stopped hrt in January but I'm still waiting for my cycle return and swear symptoms have gotten worse.

Thank you for your reply. I started bleeding and the pain has eased off. my body is so confused, i don't think i will be having my next injection. Hope you are ok and it settles for you.

Hi lovely, i feel your pain. It can take up to 4 months to work so don't give up. You probably need some HRT to help with the pelvic pain. Unfortunately menopause causes pain in your joints. Could you have endometriosis too as this causes a lot of pelvic pain xxx

No I don't have endometriosis, just adenomyosis but i didn't have any symptoms, it only got picked up on an MRI. The pelvic pain has only started since they put me on 3 monthly Prostap : ( i am seriously considering not having the next 3 month injection. xxx
