Unsure whether to have 5th zoladex injection

Hi, I have been trying to get advice from my gynae for the past two months so am hoping I can get some here. My Dr says she doesn't know enough about the condition.

I was diagnosed with endo and adenomyosis in January after suffering with daily chronic pelvic pain. My gyna started me on 6 months course of zoladex with Livial tibilone add-back HRT. The first two months was pretty bad but by the 3rd injection the pain was lifting, I felt great. I had two periods that month which was surprising since they had stopped and were supposed to stop.

I had the 4th injection and 1 week later felt sick, the pain was bad and I had another period. Two weeks on now I do feel better, but the pain, although much less, is still there. I am emotionally tired from not knowing what to expect. I want to have try and have a baby as soon as I come off the treatment. I am 30 yrs old. My gut is telling me to stop the treatment and start trying, especially since I'm still in pain and having periods. I'm not convinced the zolly is working very well and I'm miserable.

Should I persist for the last two months, even though I'm unhappy and in pain, or should i stop? Will the last two months make much of a difference?

thanks for any advice! Sue
