PCOS after switching from depo-provera injection to coil.
Hello. Am new here. I am in my late 30s. I was on depo injections for about 12 years with no PCOS. No hirsutism. No dodgy ovaries ( I've had several scans over the years for nonPCOS reasons, the last clear ovary scan being 3 years ago). Last year I switched to the hormone coil and rapidly developed hirsutism

Tired of it all!
Hi, this is my first time, just joined. I am 35years old with two amazing grown up children. After a third pregnancy went wrong I went on depo provera injections every three months (periods stopped) but had to come off it after getting a pulmonary embolism. After a few months started to have terrible

My husband and I are trying to conceive. I had been on Depo Provera since January 26, 2013. My last injection was on August 4th, 2014. We have been trying for a while at the advice of my doctor. My first period was on November 17th, 2014. And now today, although this is when I'm ovulating, I got a lighter

Confused and fed up
Hi everyone Apologies in advance for the long post! This is my first on here and I haven't spoken about this in a while because my problems (mostly) subsided whilst I was on the Depo Provera injection for about 2 or 3 years - so I just got on with it. Background: had 'menstrual' and pain issues

Stage 4 endo and fertility
So my battle with endo started in 2012 when I was back from a good 5km run one evening and then found myself doubled over in pain and rushed into A&E with suspected appendicitis. After 3 days if tests they said a cyst had raptured in my abdomen and the fluid was causing the pain but this would jus subside

Zoladex...is it worth it?
Hi, I've just been to the gp this morning because the depo provera injection that I had back in June hasn't worked. I had about two weeks of pain relief then the endometriosis pains came back. Understandably I am feeling very fed up and down. I have been offered the zoladex injection and been given a

Fed up after returning pain.
Hi, I'm new to this site and forum and I guess I'm just interested in seeing now others are coping with endometriosis. I also wanted to see if anyone else was having similar problems to me. I have been suffering with endometriosis on and off for about 3 years. I had a laparoscopy where they found and

Period a month after Depo??
Last month (7/7/14) I finally got the Depo-Provera shot after being about 3 weeks overdue on it (2 of those 3 weeks I'd been bleeding) and all was fine up until about 2 weeks ago, when I started getting pain again and then last week I started bleeding, saw the doctor a couple of days ago and she said

How long does IM depo medrone last?
Hi, Does anyone else get IM steroid injections. I had my last about a month ago and it made such a difference but today I feel exhausted again, with the knees and feet starting to get tender. I realize it could be the temperature and the fact we had a weekend visiting friends but I had been feeling so

Inactive lymph nodes? Mine don't seem to be working could that be PMR related?
Last week I had a very nasty suspected infected insect bite on my face which became very swollen and alarmed my GP so much he sent me to a specialist ENT to get it drained. The ENT sent me for an ultrasound which ruled out a dental or bone abscess but showed that the lymph glands in my neck had not reacted

Massive fluid retention after injection of cortisone
Hi All. Has anyone else had lots of fluid retention, particularly in thighs and belly, after injection of Depo-Medrone (cortisone)? I had 120 mgs after crawling off to GP when my batteries had run down and blew up some days later. I'm on 7.5mgs daily but am waiting for hip replacement so am off everything

Does anyone else get allergic reactions from vitamin supplements?
I've had PMR for four years and am down to 4mg of Medrol with the odd flare now and then. I am getting rather fed up because I would like to take a multivitamin supplement but every one I've tried so far has given me an allergic reaction, a sensation of pins and needles and a hot tingling sensation.

Painful aching legs and other joint pain - has Zoladex done this to me????
Hi Ladies, About a year ago now I was on Zoladex (with add-back HRT) for stage 4 Endo but had to come off it as it made me quite poorly. Then I was on Depo-Provera injections for a few months but stopped them at the beginning of March this year because I wasn't benefiting much from that treatment either
