cerazette

[Jaylou26]

Hi, I had operation few months ago to remove endometriosis and release my bowel that was attached to my uterus with adhesions.

I was told to start taking cerazette to help stop the endo growing back. I've recently started it and wondered what other peoples side affects were. if any?

i've got a constant headache on one side and also constipation. has anyone else had constipation?

Im due on my period next weekend so will see if that arrives or misses. Had quite alot of stabbing pain that comes and goes in my ovaries too.

Is appears that this drug can cause the symptoms you have. If they are bareable then continue into the next mth. If not see your GP to change to another similar type PILL that has no Estrogen in it. Taking the PILL continuously will shut the Ovaries down after 2mths. Myself there were few PILL's I could take as constipation, headache and leg pain into my groin. I was given Zoladex implants after a couple of mths on that my Ovaries were shut down.

Unfortunately there are no simple fixes

My best wishes. I know just how it must be.

Hey, hope your pains have eased up. I just thought I’d reply as I had my lap 4 weeks ago now and they also released my bowel. I’ve been really struggling with painful constipation. The doctor has suggested I keep taking laxatives to soften things up (!) until my bowel has fully recovered. They said this might take a while and also that even with no adhesion release, after surgery bowels tend to go into shock and that causes constipation! You probably know all this but just incase it helps xx
