Prostap help!

I wondered if anyone else experienced this and if so how they managed it.

Since the birth of my second child 9 months ago I have continuously bled and have had constant period pain! I’ve had normal ultrasound scans, laparoscopy, hysteroscopy. My gynaecologist cannot find what’s going on. The only thing they could see was adenomyosis on my MRI but he said my symptoms are not typical of adenomyosis.

So my gynae advised prostap every 3 months to see if it makes a difference.

I had my first injection on Saturday, and everyday since I have had horrific migraines, constant stomach pain, waves of dizziness, hot flashes and every night since between 6pm and 9pm I have extreme nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea but the bleeding has suddenly stopped.

what is going on?! I am struggling so badly but when I spoke to the gynae he said it shouldn’t be giving me side effects until 2/3 weeks after injection. I am so confused because this happened as soon as I’d had the injection.

can anyone shed some light on this?!
