My period stopped after the 3rd injection, my surgeon said it should stop straight away if it’s working but then she also said 2 in 10 people can bleed the whole time on the injection.

Omg mines constant it’s spitting and it’s so annoying the main reason was the bleeding to stop 😒 did u spot all the way until ur 3rd injection or normal periods ?

I fully bled until my 3rd one, the first one wasn’t as bad then my second one was absolutely horrific and i had to take time off work because of it and then it just stopped

Hi, for me the pain eased after the second injection and then I got my symptoms back 8 weeks after the last injection (6mths of injections) but from what I’ve read every one is different, sadly I’m back in the same pain I was with endo, bed bound when I have my period etc, but hoping yours is a positive one.

hot flushes went by the 8 weeks, but being a cold person all the time I actually enjoyed feeling hot for a time, but I know they are super inconvenient

Yeah I’m a really cold person too, but the hot flushes are awful. Made me feel so stressed as they always happened in the worst places
