How do you manage your side effects and weight on zoladex?
So I'm afraid that
zoladex
is going to make things worse. My question is how do you deal with it? I can't cut my calories much more since I already eat about 1500, and to lose weight I have to go to 800.

Migraines
Hi, Last year when I was on
zoladex
I would get seem to get a migraine nearly every month when I should be due on but obviously because of the
zoladex
I did not come on.

Zoladex increase in PSA
After being on Bicalutamide since May 2020 I switched to
Zoladex
as my PSA had increased from 0.9 to 3.8 in April. I expected my PSA to drop below the 3.8 but my result this week came out at 6.9. Testosterone over the last month has dropped from 19.3 to 0.7.

Zoladex and Tibolone
They have offered me
Zoladex
and tibolone and gave me a leaflet for
zoladex
but said to look up tibolone. From the way they described it,
zoladex
will put me on medically induced menopause but the tibolone is hormone replacement and will counteract any side effects.

Does taking HRT reduce the side effects from Zoladex?
Hi, I'm thinking about starting
Zoladex
to manage my endometriosis pain but I'm worried about the side effects such as depression and anxiety. I'm 46 and have severe endo so am close to menopause. I've been told that taking HRT alongside
Zoladex
reduces some side effects.

7 months on! Fallen out with my Drs! Told them to F off!
It’s impossible to know if I have an infection or not on
Zoladex
, because normally for something like an abscess you’ll get night sweats and transient fevers! Well I get hot flashes and night sweats on
Zoladex
. Bloods atm don’t show infection but my heart rate was 140 because my pain was so severe!

Xofigo starting soon
I’m currently taking Xtandi and
Zoladex
will add 6 treatments of Xofigo starting this week. I appreciate your thoughts. I only have Mets in the bones, but a lot of them. PSA has remained around the .4 to .5 range for the last 6 months It is a blessing to be able to share on this site.

Zoladex side effects
Hi all, Just wondering for those that have had
Zoladex
, how long was it until you started experiencing side effects. I only had my first one just over a week ago, but I swear I’m starting with hot flushes and sweats, along with headaches.

So I got so fed up of being fobbed off I booked a private Ultrasound this Sunday!
No idea what you’re supposed to do when no one is willing to help, so I’m collecting actual evidence now, that I have just been fobbed off, cuz I’ve had a course of antibiotics and 3 shots of
Zoladex
, I’m obviously ‘cured’. It’s Sunday afternoon! I’ll keep you posted!

To neuter, or not to neuter? That is the question. 😀
I have been on ADT injections (
Zoladex
) for 3 years with bicalutamide added for the last 6 months (PSA was rising very slowly and was approaching 1.0 in January). Current PSA is 0.08. Testosterone is <0.2 nmol/L. Latest bone scan says that my few bone mets are no longer visible.

Zoladex

GP surgery not scheduling my Zoladex injection
I was on
Zoladex
for three months in 2017 and I had a private gynaecology appointment recently and the consultant said that I need to have
Zoladex
again for four months.

Varied energy
I am on Letrozole, monthly
zoladex
and 3 weeks on and 2 off with Ibrance. This has been since August 2017. Some days I feel like have so much energy and others no energy at all. Does anyone else feel like this?

I was put onto
Zoladex
and just left to get on with it, until they could be arsed to deal with it! Great!
Zoladex
