lupron or enlarged uterus causing missed periods
Posted: 01-02-08 10:31am

I had a laparoscopy in oct '07 FOund out i had endo. my dr. qaurterized that and also told me that i had an inlarged uterus, which is unusal for someone who has not had kids.

What i would like to know is can lupron {the shot that i am getting} cause me to miss periods when i am supposed to get the shot during my period.

Or can it be that i am pregnant. I took a test that i bought from the dollar store and it came out neg.

But my stomach is a little bigger under my belly button and kind of poking out a bit under my ribs.??

any help or advise would be great

So far I haven't read anything about endometriosis or lupron causing an enlarged uterus. Didn't the doctor who diagnosed you with endometriosis do a gynecologic ultrasound? Endometriosis can cause irregular periods though. As for pregnancy test kits, not all kits give you accurate results. You could have gotten a false negative. So to be sure, take another test, and maybe get a better quality test kit from a pharmacy.
