I would talk to your doctor if I were you about your concerns. Just so you know though, the scarring that you have can really make it hard to get pregnant and sometimes cause ectopic pregnancies. You may want to take your doctor's advice.

I was on Lupron for the same reason about 3 years ago. It was a hard thing to go through but I can say that it did help. However, I now am having a hard time getting pregnant and I am unsure if it has anything to do with the Lupron. I know that while you are on the treatment you can not get pregnant, or that is what my Dr. told me, but I would definantly ask your Dr. it is cause for concern. It is not as bad of a treatment as people make it out to be though. The night sweats are the worst! Hope this helps.

I have been on luperon for over six months. I was injected with a higher dose in march of 2008, I have suffered from speech problems, muscule pain ,insominia no sex drive, seizures, night sweats, tremors weight loss, dont use this drug please ,

I had the Lupron shot only once. I never felt so much pain when the shot wore off 3 months later. Just lousy I felt and so much pelvic pain coming off of the injection. I had to transported to the emergency room, like the other member stated stay away from it if you can.

I just wanted to thank all of you for all of your helpful information. I have an appointment on Thursday to get on the Lupron shot for my endometriosis and Ovarian Cysts but now I think I'm just going to go on the pill for a while. Thanks again for talking me out of it, without really even talking to me.

After my operation for adenomyoma, i was given a Lupron shot which lasted for 3 months. On my first mmonth, I hardly felt anything except that i didn't have my menstruation. On the second month I started feeling the hot flashes. It could get bothersome at times but tolerable. The hot flashes continued on until the 3rd month. i didn't get the severe side effects. I don't know if it's because of the age (i'm 33) or i din't have it long enough. I was supposed to get another shot but I opted not to and try the natural progesterone cream instead. I have tried it for two months now and my menstruation has been pain free. The thing is, I'm not sure if it's the natural progesterone or the Lupron that's taking effect.

I had my 3rd laporoscopy for endo 6 months ago (2 years prior and 5 yrs prior to that)and have been getting a shot of Lupron every month for the past 5 months. The side effects have been very difficult..nausea, hot flashes every 1/2 hour, muscle pain and some days depression. But I'm willing to go through in hopes my body will be prepared for easy conception. My doctor recommended Lupron to have all the endo completly cleared. For me, Lupron does keep the endo away longer. I learned this after the second surgery. When I had my first operation I took Lupron and didn't have endo for 5 years, then the second time it came back I decided not to take Lupron because I couldn't tolerate the side effects the first time but then the endo came back just after 2 years.

Now that I have been married 1 year and ready to conceive, I'm not taking a chance again and doing everything doctor recommends.. I just finished my last shot of Lupron and waiting for my period and then will start trying. Its a painful process but I'm sure it will all be worth it.

I've just had my first shot of Lupron (one week ago to be exact) due to endo, tubular disease, and seem to have exhausted all other options so far. I just went for a consultation and ended up having it there and then without being given all the info.
I have just begun to bleed and feel awful, lots of pelvic pain, nausea, night sweats, hot flushes, and either very tearful or angry. Finding it all very difficult as i am not at all like this. They have told me that this will all settle after a couple of weeks. Has anyone else bled whilst on it. Just hoping it doesn't get any worse! I have been given some patches (think you may call them sims? I'm English and there seems to be less information available over here, seems to have become the 'in' treatment though?) but cannot use them until i have stopped bleeding.....

I had a good experience with Lupron for 6 months. I've been off for 1 month and the pain is back so back to the Dr. I go to see what to do next. I haven't had surgery, just the Lupron and it definitely worked while I was on it, but the endo is back now that it's gone. Looking into adoption because my body just may need to be on hormones until menopause to keep the endo away.

Hi I am 24 and two months ago after over 2 years of trying to conceive (and no luck) I had a Laparoscopy preformed,. I had high hopes it would fix any problems I may have had, little to find out I suffer from Endometriosis, Andenomyosis, Pelvic adhesion, Cyst on my left ovary, and I had a right fallopian tube that was completely blocked. The only thing that the Dr. was able to correct through this surgery was the fallopian tube blockage. For the others I suffer from he recommended Lupron Depot injections for three months to shrink my conditions. I was and still am very hesitant about this, I have read a lot of bad side affects and ways this drug can harm you, Also after trying for two years I feel like it will only delay our conceiving hopes even further into the future, because you have to wait at least 3 months post injections for the drug to clear your system (so that�s 6 months alone). I have just recently purchased FertilAid an all natural supplement which I think I will give a try before deciding on any major treatments. I have searched the web trying to find posts of others who have suffered from the same conditions, and treatment proposed for possible hopes to conceive, So any input would be greatly appreciated. Good Luck to all TTC.

I have been on the shot for almost a year now...I hate it! I go back in August for another shot and Im not sure I want to get another one...Im only 18 so Im not looking to get pregnant, but I have hot flashes every 30 mins maybe? and I have gained 40 lbs being on it, Im very pissy to people and have a short fuse plus I have horrible head aches, the pain has gone away yes but Im not sure that all the side effects are worth it anymore... how long will it take me to have a baby since I do have endo? Please help! =]

I wouldn't do it either. I just gained 25lbs that I cant loose and they told me it is only 50% effective anyways. Didn't work for me plus you waste all those months ttc.

I just finished a 3 month shot of Lupron, so I don't know if it helped my endo. But I actually felt great during the 3months-- barely any hot flashes at all. I felt calm, no mood swings, and most importantly, no pain. I guess it really depends upon your own body and how your body will react. I just hope this helps me get pregnant now!

I must say that this works. Iwas diagnose with edo 12 years ogo. About 6 years ago, I had the lipo surgery. I did everything after that lupron shots and clumid. I was fortunate to get pregnant after 2 long months of lupron and 3 tries of clomid. i currently have a 2 years old daughter.

I am back to square one trying to have another baby, but it is so fustrating. Like my husband always told me, be patient and it will happen.

I wish you guys all the best

27yrs old Laparoscope Unable to have kids for four yrs: I completed 5 months of Lupron injections to try and help my edno pain. The bleeding during the first month bothered me, but was not painful. Side effects that followed- major hot flashes, mood swings (crying wanting to die then to screaming in anger at my loved ones), stopped exercising (no energy), memory loss (bills and work suffered), hair loss, dry itchy skin, loss of libido (hated my husband), trouble sleeping, dry mouth (really bad breath), and the most scary one was the way I would bruise with the smallest bump. I hope this covers all my side effects.
Ten weeks after my last shot I started my period again with all the pain coming back. I'm very upset that I suffered so long with such a disappointing outcome. The endo diet is my next hope.

i have been TTC for five years now and last december we tried to see if my tubes were blocked but the doc couldnt enter my cervix so she did lap and found out i had lots of endo, my ovary was completely pressed down and my bladder was attached to my uterus. after the surgery she put me on lupron i did the two injections six month treatment. i had some mood changes and lots of hot flashes but all tolerable. the first month i got off i did a course of birth control and the time of my periods i had just spotting. my doc got me on Femara to make my folicles big but i did my 14th day ultrasound today and she said no folicles looked big enough. next month im going to take a stronger dose of Femara and put on the estrogen pack. and hopefully something will work.
