Zoladex and heart palpertations
Hi I had my first zoladex injection on Monday I haven't experienced any terrible side effects, apart from a flare up in my endometriosis pain, however I have started having heart palpertations that are quite extreme and haven't stopped. I noticed them start yesterday and have carried on. I thought

Hi all. Been a long time since I have been on here. Been plodding on for a little while following my laparoscopy 2 years ago, which diagnosed endo. Since then I have tried the contraceptive pill, the Mirena coil, zoladex injections along with painkillers. I have still had irregular bleeding (can bleed

TERF ALERT: I've not had a good experience accessing help and support.
My endo and fibroids surgery is in 3 weeks from today, and I am very scared. I am crying a lot at little things no doubt because of this underlying fear and have tried to access the central London support group. However, when I responded to the email that was addressed "Hi Ladies" saying that I don't

Hi everyone, I'm 59 years old and have prostate cancer. Following some occasions having trouble passing urine I noticed blood spots in the loo, so off to the GP. Back in March my first PSA was 232!! After 2 months on Zoladex implant it has come down to 49 so going the right way. The hormone treatment

How long did it take your period to return after finishing Zoladex?
I had three 12 week zoladex injections. I had my last one 7.5 weeks ago and although the pain has amped up there is no sign of my period. Just wondering if anyone has an experience of how long it took their period to return after Zoladex? Thank you x

Meds change
Hi everyone, Hope you are all having an enjoyable bank holiday Monday. I have now had 5 weeks off the meds, and my Oncologist has changed them for Tamoxifen, due to the severe side effects from the Zoladex and Letrozole. I am under no illusions that there won't be any side effects with Tamoxifen, I

Zoladex then what?
I have been having monthly zoladex injections for 18months now. It seems the last few months I have had pain creeping back. Can this happen? I'm looking at coming off it as I've been on it such a long time plus the side effects are not very pleasant. I must admit I'm scared of coming off it as I know

Feeling deflated.
So today i had my fourth post op appointment with my BSGE specialist. Endo has been a right pain for me. First off i got messed about via NHS, my surgeons went in blind, my surgery was upped to major during surgery and well ive been left worse off. Ive tried the mini pill, it lead to constant spotting

Zoladex and estrogen
Hi all, I am new here and in need of a bit of advice! I am 26 and have been on zoladex for around 18 months now. I was told to take estrogen tablets alongside this but they made me bleed so badly that I stopped taking them. Time has rather escaped me and I have been so busy with work etc. that I haven't

To take early retirement or not?
Prepare for a little ramble. I am wondering how many of the people who post here have remained (or managed to remain) in employment. I am 57, with 8 years to go until I officially retire from my job as an academic. My PSA has been as high as 432, though I have no bone mets (the mets are apparently

Advice of what to do next?
Hello I am new and have been reading everyone's posts and finding them very helpful. I got diagnosed last July after laparoscopy but unfortunately they only removed one endo spot. I was told it was through my blood vessels in my womb ovaries and tubes and it couldn't be removed without taking the organs

Zoladex - 6 months done... what are the possible aftermath effects of the zoladex leaving my system
Hi, I was diagnosed in 2006 following laparoscopy. The laparoscopy identified large areas of endometriosis with large amounts attaching the uterus to the bowel. So have done every treatment, and then 6 months of zoladex. The consultant had said they would generally hold off the hysterectomy until I

Fed up 😩
Hi girls. So I'm so frustrated today as my endo has reared its head 10 fold :(. The last few months my pain has been manageable despite removal of all hormone treatments as TTC. This week I found out the reason for this: I'm not ovulating. Bitter pill to swallow as on one hand I was thrilled that

So my last gynaecologist appointment went okay, she's put me on zoladex, and booked and MRI and ct. which I have now had. She said she would see me after my 3 months of zoladex unless the scans proved otherwise. I haven't even been in zoladex a month and she wants to see me on the 5th on next month

Concerned about bleeding
Hi ladies, I'm after some advice because I'm starting to be abit concerned.... I'm due to have my 4th injection of Zoladex next week. I'm doing well on them and finding relief from the endo pain, always up until the week before I'm due my next one when the pains start again and I really start struggling

How quickly does it take for Zoladex to work
I had my first injection on the day my period was due (last Tuesday). So far, I've not had my period but I didn't think it would work that quickly? I've been off work for 7 weeks with unmanageable pain and so I'm just wondering how long it will take to start helping with the pain. I had prostap years
