zoladex

[sj3001]

hello I have been on zoladex for 3 months now, almost 4. I am still having pain, may I ask did anyone find that their zoladex didn’t work and what happened next?

Hi

It didn’t work for me, I did the full six. Consultant said it might take two/three months. My BP went up and that is one of the side effects, keep an eye on yours.

It does work for some and there are success stories on here.

I had it in between first lap and second op, hysterectomy as well as Endo, but I was 51 so don’t look at hysterectomy being an answer.

It works to a point with me. I'm hemorrhaging without it. By the time I get it (every 9 weeks) it's ran out and I'm bleeding heavily. I'm talking blood transfusion heavily. Then it takes 2 to 3 weeks to stop the bleeding then I usually have 3 to 4 weeks of getting my life back before I start bleeding and bloating again. To be honest it's hell. I'm also concerned that it's not shrinking the fibroids or the endometrioma cyst as I seem to need the toilet every 20 mins at the moment and it feels like it's pushing on my bladder. I'm up and down all night. As it runs out I look pregnant and suffer from inflammation. It's something I have to manage daily so it's not a magic solution for everyone x
