Prostap injection weight gain

hey,

I had Prostap infections for six months to help with the endometriosis and it definitely did help with the pain but oh my goodness I've put on two stone whilst on it and cannot seem to lose the weight even after stopping now. Does anyone have any tips at all? It's like my metabolism has completely slowed down and can't shift the weight

Hi there, sorry to hear that. Hopefully now you have come off it, you will see a difference.

I have been on prostap for four years and the weight gain is definitely part of it-it’s so hard to shift I agree. However I find cutting down on carbs does help a bit, also not sure of your age but weights and swimming help as does mint tea to diffuse the water retention.

All the best and take care.
