I still have severe cramps even though the Zoladez has stopped my period. I have hot flashes and I have to take Norethindrone (hormones) for the menopause symptoms.

A/A also had a course last year - seemed to reduce symptoms of bleeding but only for a 3 month period
Somewhat Helpful
Definite reduction in pain. But had the night sweats and hot flushs..... my biggest problem is that at no point did anyone advise me that one of the side effects is that it can cause permanent menopause which it has done to me.

I love not having the periods, but the hot flashes, night sweats, migraines, and mood swings are no fun at all.The pain is better but still present.It is a 6 month course,and I am on my third injection... Still hopeful, yet cautious.

this tops my hormone being produced so orces my body to have an artifical menopause, the side affects for the moneopause were awful, hated thembut they did stop the pain
Too Soon To Tell
I have my 3rd injection in a week but the side effects are horrendous. I cry every day, can't sleep, hot flashes, night sweats, daily headaches, stupidly anxious and acne. The only good thing is no bleeding but I am yet to see if it has an effect.
Too Soon To Tell
I guess it is too soon to tell.... I would say it is not working.... HATE IT
Too Soon To Tell
i have just had my 2nd injection of a 6 month course. I dont know if it has worked yet but i have had some unpleasant side effects such as hot flushes and severe migrains/daily headaches :-s
