SYNAREL  (NAFARELIN ACETATE):  Nafarelin is used in women to treat a condition in which the tissue that normally lines the inside of the uterus grows in the wrong place (endometriosis). This medication helps to decrease the abnormal tissue and also the symptoms of endometriosis (such as pelvic pain, painful menstrual cramps, and pain during/after sex). This medication is also used in children to treat a certain type of early puberty (central precocious puberty, gonadotropin-dependent). It helps to slow the bone aging and height growth rate so that both are near normal, and it helps to stop or reverse signs of early puberty (such as breast growth in girls, growth of sexual organs in boys). Nafarelin is similar to a natural hormone made by the body (gonadotropin-releasing hormone-GnRH). It works by decreasing the testosterone hormones in boys and estrogen hormones in women and girls.   FDA Approval Date: 1990-02-13 (Sources: U.S. Centers for Medicare Services, FDA)

 1  Stage 4 Endometriosis Severe bone, muscle and joint aches. Headaches, mood swings, hot flashes, altered taste and smell, increased pelvic cramping. I could feel it in my body and felt disgusting all the time. It made everything ache. I couldn’t take it for the recommended 6 months because the side effects were too harsh. I spent most days in bed because my body aches were so severe. I’m still having severe symptoms even after having stopped for 3 weeks. I’m wondering if I am damaged for life. This is a harsh medication. I would recommend researching about it before taking since my doctor didn’t tell me much about it and I greatly regret taking it. It has made my quality of life terrible.

 3  endometriosis Headaches lasted for first 3 weeks, then intermittent irritability, now muscle cramping/stiffness and weakness, tons of hot flashes although these decreased when I went from 3 sprays daily to 2 sprays daily The medication had many difficult side effects, but it decreased my constant pelvic pain. I'm concerned that because after the maximum dose (6 months) my pelvic pain is not gone and I expect I will still have to have a laparoscopy. F 38 6 months
