rosebud;
Do not panick the Zoladex is working for you. FSH is what stimulates your ovaries to produce estrogen. Zoladex works by keeping the levels of FSH and LH very low so that your ovaries do not get a signal to produce estrogen.
In natural menopause your ovaries fail so the pituitary tries to make lots of FSH to try and convince the ovaries to owrk harder. THis is why in natural menopause you have high FSH and low estradial.
In contrast for premenopausal women on Zoladex (or Lupron) you should have low FSH/LH and low estradial if the Zoladex is doing it's job.
Also note that Zoladex causes the uterous to thin dramatically so you may occcasionally have bleeding but it is not as a result of estrogen. If your worried have you estodial levels measured that is what will tell you what is really going on.
