I have been given Zoladex twice before for 6month periods before the age of 40. The last time was approx 8 years ago and I have now been prescribed it to reduce my fibroids prior to having a hysterectomy. Should I be taking it again as I am worried about the effects it may have on my bone density or general health?
How many times can you take Zoladex ?

Sorry this question has not been answered earlier for you.
This is taken directly from http://www.drugs.com/dosage/zoladex.html
"... Currently, there are no clinical data on the effect of treatment of benign gynecological conditions with ZOLADEX for periods in excess of 6 months.
