Gonapeptyl injections. When do periods return?
Posted , 3 users are following.
Hi everyone,
I had my first Gonapeptyl injection yesterday, meant to shrink the fibroids before surgery. I am scheduled to take the injection 3 times.
So far I feel fine but its only day two
I was wondering if anyone has taken these? Did your periods stop and did they come back aftewards? I am terrified of my periods not coming back.....they have always been clockwork specific and I have never been off my period or on the pill. I am 32 so v keen to preserve fertility and have kids one day soon.
Thanks for any help or pointers!

Its me again!
So I took my first Gonapeptyl injection on the 3rd of April. It is meant to stop periods but I had my period today. Is this weird? Should I inform my GYNAE? The same thing happened to me when I took Esmya - I took it for SIX MONTHS and during that period my monthly cycle never stopped. What is up with that? My periods are like super effiecient or am i just producing way too much Oestrogen? Maybe that is why I have firbroids?
So in a nutshell. did anyone carry on having periods whilst on Esmya, Gonapeptyl or other GNRHs?
Thank you

I am just posting this to hopefully be helpful to someone out there - after taking the Gonapeptyl injections for 3 months, my periods stopped for around 4 months and returned exacty 3 months after I finished the last injection. I am sooooo pleased!
I hope this helps someone out there!
