hi, advice please, had my first prostrap injection on 9th May, today is the 24th May and just experiencing my first period from it, heavy but strangely not much pain, my only concern as it’s very heavy, how long do the first periods normally last please, or what to expect from it as still very new with it all. Thanks.

Hi, not had Prostap, but had Zolodex jab and had extremely bad bleeding the first month, which lasted about a week, but extreme bleeding was only for about 4 days of that, then no bleeding since and now on 4th jab. Not got endo, but massive fibroid uterus and yesterday got my hysterectomy date for 1st July, which is a great news. Hope your bleeding doesn't last too long and you get some relief too. X

hi I was on this for 3 months and 2 weeks after the 1st one I just bled everyday for 3 months so I got taken off it as that’s not supposed to happen. I wouldn’t worry tho I did hear the 1st time it happens it’s just your body’s reaction to the injection x
