Hi, has anyone had prostap and later gone on to have a hysterectomy please? How similar are the two?
Hi, I have had prostap twice, six months then 9 months. I have no options left but a hysterectomy now (v long story!). On prostap I had very bad joint/backpain, fatigue, no sex drive, memory problems and what I can only describe as brain fog! It did however really help with the cramping pains and other

Adenomyosis and Endometriosis and PCOS!! Feel doomed at 31!!
Hi has anyone else been diagnoses with all three above? I am only 31 and it has taken them 15 years to diagnose Adenomyosis also. I am now faced with 10 years of more pain and more heavy periods due to my age they won't offer me a hysterectomy. Can anyone offer advice about treatment that you had.

Menopause or Pregnancy?
So as some of you may know I have been told to go on Zoladex or Prostap but I'm a bit dubious as it could stop me getting pregnant afterwards. Anyway, my dilemma is do I get pregnant before or after the menopause treatment? Also from all you beautiful mommies out there, I wondered what its like to

Provera & still no period. Is this normal?
Hi there, this is my first post on this network (I am also on the endometriosis UK network). I was wondering if anybody has been given provera to bring on a period and how long it took to start bleeding? Long story short, my husband and I have been ttc for about a year and as a result of my endometriosis

Having a period two weeks after my first prostap injection....I'm in agony!!
It's been two weeks since my first laparoscopy and it's not been easy.....having a lot of different pains and one of the wounds has become infected. Now, just to make things that little bit more interesting, I have the period from hell. I feel like I'm living on painkillers which I hate, and I'm having

Light at the end of the tunnel?
After suffering with endo for what seems like a lifetime, I am booked in for a hysterectomy at the end of July. Up until 8 months ago I was having the Prostap injecton which worked for a long time and kept symptoms pretty much at bay. Following a bone density scan they found some bone density loss

How long does cramping last after mirena insertion? Thanks
Hi, I had an investigative lap 2 weeks and 3 days ago and they also inserted the mirena coil for me. I have had cramps ever since that seem to be getting worse. I have also had what I would call really bad PMT symptoms, crying, irritable,temper, headache, back ache etc. I have had to take tramadol and

Prostap/Zoladex? Am I imagining this?
The reason I went on Prostap is because irrespective of the endo symptoms, my mood swings & anxiety levels had become out of control. At 43, I have been symptom-wise recognised as being peri menopausal for about 6 yrs now since the birth of my daughter. Low Oestrogen blood tests & symptoms have

Pain in groin and down legs during and after exercise.... Is it my Endo? Or a muscular problem? And how do I find out?
Hi Ladies, I've been exercising for just over 2 months now, in a bid to rid my gained prostap weight and get a bit 'fighting fit' so I can give up my injections and start a family. To begin with, exercising was absolutely fine. The first 6 weeks were really positive, and I found if I had my endo

I have no clue what to do next, I have endo but specialist centre says it isn't causing my chronic pain and they don't know what is.
Well, I have just had my 4th lap (this one at a specialist centre) and have been told they don't know what is causing my chronic pain. I have had a twisted ovary from a dermoid cyst, removal of the cyst and the ovary, lots of adhesiolysis and was diagnosed with endo last year what was diathermised.

Will this belly stop growing??
Today I woke up with the biggest belly I have had since pregnant. I can only assume, coupled with period pain and back ache, it's a side effect of the prostap injection. Nobody tells you that this drug will do this to you. Yes you know you're going to get hot sweats, insomnia etc but this today

Is this normal? Pain everywhere can hardly move?
For the last couple of weeks i have become increasingly stiff and ache everywhere in joints, cant move today at all. Without excruciating pain, just laid in bed crying, am on my fourth prostap injection and take oxycodone tramadol and naproxen daily. Does anyone know what's happening to me, don't know

After lap, Prostap versus diet/yoga to manage endo?
Hi, three weeks ago I had a lap to remove stage IV endo. I've been told I need to have 6 months of Prostap to reduce the chances of the endo recurring. I've done some research and understand that the Prostap may reduce the severity of recurring endo but won't stop it completely. I'm also anxious about

Does anyone know anything about egg-freezing when there is a risk of ovary removal?
Am due to have a laparotomy next week to remove a 15cm ovarian cyst and have division of adhesions. I had a laparoscopy in July last year and have been taking Prostap but my cysts have grown back regardless and the largest is so big this time that they cant see what it is attached to. My consultant

So confused with it all :(
Had my second lap three weeks ago which just showed scarring no active endo so they have just left it. Have been on prostap since October which was hell to begin with but the last two months I seemed to be getting less pain, I am right in thinking being on prostap won't give them the full picture as
