Does Zoladex Injection Pain Vary Month to Month?

Anyone on here getting Zoladex? Do you find some months the “stabbing” hurts way worse than others? I swear some months it’s a total none event and then the next month I actually feel like I was stabbed. Anyone else???

The experience with injection pain can definitely vary from month to month for many people receiving this medication. Factors like injection technique, muscle tension, or even where exactly the shot is given can influence how much discomfort someone feels. It's completely understandable to wonder about these differences, and many others in the community have likely noticed similar variations in their monthly experiences.

My daughter takes a monthly injection that is like that but it's not zoladex. 🤷

I wish I could post a picture because the bruising this month is no joke!! Myrna is your daughter also a breast cancer survivor? Is she on the app? I’d love to chat about her experience.

Yes! The first time I got it, it was no big deal. Last time really hurt. I think it was a difference in nurses but idk.

No her injection is not cancer related. She just has the same experience that some months it's no big deal and others it's excruciating.
