Fibroid update

Last week I had my first hormone shot. I jump when I get shots unless I am able to watch it pierce the skin, so I was happy to receive it in the arm! I haven't noticed any crazy menopause-like symptoms, but I have noticed that my fibroid feels less hard and isn't tender anymore. In fact, a stretch that I have found uncomfortable to do for the last couple of years causes me no discomfort at all now! I didn't expect that to happen until I felt the fibroid shrink quite a bit! I can't quite tell if it has shrunk at all yet, but I think it might have a little bit.
