Lupron Side Effects & Reversal: What You Need to Know


Question
i just received my first dose of depo lupron. However, i regret taking it! The side effects are starting and driving me crazy. My husband wants to try for a child. Does anyone know if there is something that can counteract the lupron to reverse it?

Answer
Hi Kim!
     I know there are alot of crazy side effects with Lupron...and have heard alot of women on this website complain about it. I have mixed feelings about it. On one hand, it dramatically helps with endo (can't cure it, but helps control it) and on the other hand is driving woman crazy.I was on a smiliar med called Danocrine and I felt great and went 9 months w/o a period...
    The truth is, you can get pregnant while on these types of meds. Alot of woman have. Then there are the woman that won't ovulate for a long period of time and will not become pregnant...but it is definitey not out of the question. I looked around on line for a reversal to the drug and found nothing. But that does not mean that a Dr. couldn't point you in another direction. Not sure how additional hormones might work?
    I also read that the first couple fo weeks/months on Lupron are the worst...so maybe your symptoms will subside. Best of luck to you and your attempt to get pregnant!
Thanks for writing.
