I started Zoladex injections 2 weeks ago and I am still having pain right below where the injection was. I only have pain on the one side and it doesn't seem to be right where my ovary is so I don't think it is the ovary that is hurting. Has only one else had continual pain from the injections?

    My nurses are great, but some are better than others in zoladex shot. It looks like the injection wasn't done properly. Make sure to mention it next time, you shouldn't be hurting two weeks later, maybe on the day of the shot at the most.

    agree with erenTO - the shot has to be given subcutaneously (yes I had to look up the spelling) and some nurses are way better at it than others - I would suspect because they may not do that many

    my last one hurt for days and I knew it would...took her a while to get that needle. Most I barely felt
