Does Zoladex become less effective after a few months?

I am in surgical menopause - 5 months in with 2 more to go before my hysterectomy. These last couple of weeks all my Endo pains seem to be creeping back in. Even the back pain and while going to the loo. Really hating it. My question is - anyone else had this? Is it wearing off?? They will have much more trouble getting all the Endo out at the surgery, if it’s bleeding again in there!!

It does for some women. I have to have my 3 month one earlier and earlier. Now I bleed every day. I'm not hemorrhaging but I have to wear protection all day every day x
