I was asked to day to pick which down regging i wanted to do if they did long protocol i picked the one off injection instead of the month of morning injections i have read both are good if you suffer from endo but that at first they can increase the pain of endo am now having second thoughts and am unsure which type of injection to go for? Anyone with endo been in same situation?

I did long protocol on buserlin. Didn't notice any endo symptoms with that. But i wasn't given an option, had to go long protocol due to only having one ovary and the clinic saying that's the way to go

That eases my mind do you think had you been given the choice you would have picked the one off injection having been the having to use the others?

For me i only go with what the clinic suggest. They don't give options. Never heard of the one off injection

I did the long protocol both times with down reg on buserlin but I wasn’t given a choice either. It didn’t seem to affect my endo symptoms though x

How did you find the injections? Were you sore after?

I didn’t find them to bad, I used them for 4/5 of my cycles though as had to down reg for medicated FETs to. Occasionally it would sting a little after the injection but I think that was if I rushed it slightly.
