Confused and Worried...advice please...
Hi I'm new to this site, after being under the gynae consultant for over 3 years things seem little clearer so I thought I'd come on hear and tell my story and hopefully get some advice. When I was 29, a year after my DD was born I had a tubal litigation. Sometime the following year I started suffering

Anyone fainted when not in pain and not on painkillers or meds?
Hi I came over really dizzy today whilst driving to work and then fainted - whilst driving! It was one of the scariest things ever! Its completely baffled the doctors at the mo as I wasn't in pain and not currently on any meds or painkillers. I could understand it a bit more if I was struggling with

Feeling very sick and faint 4 days after 2nd Prostap injection-is this normal?
Hello ladies, I had my second Prostap injection on Thursday (the 3 monthly one) and I have felt so ill since. Today has been the worst day so far, I have been retching all day and almost fainted earlier on. I have also had the shakes and found it difficult to get warm. I can't eat without almost throwing

Prostap - please help
Really need some advice on how long you have been advised to stay on prostap even though you have felt no better (arguably worse). I have just had my third injection and it's made no difference to date and I'm exhausted all the time. My gynae has told me to keep going as there aren't many other options

About to start long term Prostap with Livial any experiences to share...
My womb and bowel are too stuck to have a hysterectomy, so am on it until natural menopause kicks in.

has anyone else's consultant been reluctant to do a laparoscopy due to previous surgery and possible risks?
my consultant thinks i have endometriosis and i currently have prostap injections. last week i had my 4th monthly injection out of the original 6 prescribed. overall they have helped a bit, probably because my periods have now stopped, but i am still in lots of pain daily. i was hoping to have a laparoscopy

Its Back Again!!
I was diagnosed with endometriosis about 14 years ago, I am 45 this year, think I must have had just about every type of hormone treatment there is, the only think that really worked was Zoladex which after several six month courses it was decided that I should stay on it as long as needed. I was unable

Long term Prostap any advice...
I went back to my gyne 15 months after my first lap under the impression that all they had found, endo, womb detached from bowel along with my right ovary being removed had been sorted. All that was done was the removal of my ovary and tube as it was bad. I have been told I can't have a hysterectomy

Prostap injections and HRT
Hi ladies I had my first injection almost 2 weeks ago. I have been on the HRT for just over 2 weeks. I started my period 3 days ago and I'm still in agony. The doctor said I might have a bit of spotting but Iam having a full blown period, 2 weeks early! Is this normal?

I started prostap yesterday, what can I expect?
I had my first prostap injection yesterday im having one a month for 6 months. What can I expect? I know the general idea of what can happen but the Internet doesn't really tell you the whole thing. Can someone who's been through it let me know how they've gotten on.

Anyone experienced depression while on Prostap injection?
Hi ladies, I had my first lap last week and was diagnosed with endo. I'm 43 now but suspect I've had it since my teens - I've always had painful, irregular periods but always been told I'd grow out of it, prescribed things like mefanamic acid (which never worked) or the Pill and basically told to go

I have been taking prostap for the last 2 months together with hrt. I had a lap last year and diagnosed with endo. I am in constant pain
And talking tramadol every day to cope. Had a period after prostap and then 10 days of heavy bleeding. Went for a scan and the gynae said my womb lining was exceptionally thick. He did blood tests on my hormones which shows the prostap worked and so has done a hysteroscopy to check for polyps etc but

Hello Ladies, has anyone else experienced depression while on Prostap and if so, how did you deal with it?
I've just been diagnosed with endo after my first lap last week, but I think I've probably had it since my early teens (now 43) as I've always had very painful , irregular periods and the last few years have had pain a week either side, as well as during, plus random twinges through the month in my stomach
