I now have chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, insomnia, muscle tremors and weakness, daily headaches, digestion problems,back pain, chest pain, etc. I am not the only one also. Go to yahoo forums and look at "victims of lupron" there are many women reporting long term side effects after using this drug. This drug was never meant for women. It was designed to treat prostate cancer in men. I wish I had known before as I never would have taken it. I ended up having to have a hysterectomy anyway. I wish the Dr.s would have listened to me back then and allowed me to have the surgery instead of trying Lupron. It is pure poison!!

I just had my second 3 month shot of lupron and it has really helped all of my symptoms of severe bleeding, clotting and cramping. I haven't had a cycle since starting this and I haven't had to miss any days of work due my cycle problem since.

I just had my second 3 month shot of lupron and it has really helped all of my symptoms of severe bleeding, clotting and cramping. I haven't had a cycle since starting this and I haven't had to miss any days of work due my cycle problem since. The only symptom I am having is alternating between severe hot flashes and cold flashes. They both last for hours at a time. Neither my Gyno or my family doctor advised me about any of the side effects so I was totally unprepared. I can honestly say Lupron has really helped me out. The hot and cold flashes only lasted for 2-3 weeks lsat time so I am hoping for the same this time.

I was diagnosed with endometriosis 5 years ago. After several doctors and two laperscopies to burn off the endo, there was still no relief. In fact, it got worse.

I was diagnosed with endometriosis 5 years ago. After several doctors and two laperscopies to burn off the endo, there was still no relief. In fact, it got worse. I am just coming off of the lupron after a year. My pain went completely away and I was prepared for the side effects thanks to by doctor. Hot flashes and low sex drive were my biggest problems. Surprisingly, it did wonders for my anxiety and depression. I'm a MUCH happier person on Lupron than off. In coming off the Lupron, I have sever mood swings, cry for no reason. I am not looking forward to getting my period back.
