In women, Zoladex Injection 3.6mg is used to:

  • Treat a condition called ‘endometriosis’. This is where cells normally only found in the lining of the womb (uterus) are found elsewhere in your body (normally on other structures near the womb).
  • Treat benign growths in the womb called ‘uterine fibroids’.
  • Make the lining of the womb thinner before you have an operation on your womb.
  • Help treat infertility (together with other medicines). It helps to control the release of eggs from the ovaries.
