What Is The Treatment For Endometriosis?
I am 40 years old and just finished a year of decapeptyl treatment for severe endometriosis. i am occaisonally getting a fluttering feeling in my heart. My pulse rate is normal during this but seems to be skipping heartbeats. The skip is irregular and can be felt by someone else taking my pulse. I never experienced this before decapeptyl and experience a lot of them towards the end of the 3 month. Each injection was a 3 month treatment. Could decapeptyl cause this?

options ranging from GnRH Analogs, Oral Contraceptive pills, Progestins ,
Danazol & Aromatase inhibitors , he / she is the best judge to give you
