I just finished my last dose of Zoladex(6 months of injections) The side effects were minimal. I had some hot flashes on and off and a little moodiness in the beginning. But, overall it hasn't been bad. It seemed the hot flashes came near the time I was due for another injection. But, I haven't had my first cycle to see if the pain has come back. I'm crossing my fingers it won't and I'll finally be able to get pregnant. Hope this helps you.
