About 3 decades ago, had Danocrine orally for about a month or longer, to mimic menopause & shrink the cyst(s) and other endometrial growths as much as possible & then endometrial surgery for my endometreosis & chocolate cyst(s), including removal of 3/4s of an ovary. Never had any shots & finally have reached menopause. Did suggest to my sister that she ask about the same before having any similar surgery.

My other sister did have a hysterectomy because of something her OB/GYN found suspicious; turned out it was benign & she has had some unpleasant symptoms from her sudden menopause but nothing unbearable. No one offered her shots, as far as I know.
