I used Lupron for Endometriosis several years ago as a last resort before undergoing a hysterectomy at the request of my gynocologist. Had I known the pain I would be living with now I would have never agreed. I can no longer play with my children like I used to and the pain restricts my activities and social life. Women need to know this is not a safe drug. I was told the only long term effect could be minimal bone loss.REPORT COMMENTS

I'm a male with recent otherwise unexplained weight gain, increased sleeping, vertigo, and loss of stamina, whose last injection of 4-month leuprolide depot accompanying salvage radiation recurrent prostate cancer was 7 months ago. Nobody gave me a heads up on these possible delayed side effects, nor do I find them in written warnings. Physicians and patients need to know!REPORT COMMENTS

When I was 18 I started a 6 month Lupron treatment, following surgery, for endometriosis. The instant side effects were pretty bad. In a nut shell, menopause! But that I could handle. I am a healthy girl who runs a lot, eats healthy, and takes care of herself! However, after my last injection, I was diagnosed with a femoral tumor that required surgery. 3 months later I tore a ligament in my hip, which required surgery. 1 year later I broke my femur( because of running?) and I was recently diagnosed with cervical cancer. Becasue of others stories I suspect this random series of events was directly related to Lupron. I would advise everyone to steer clear of this treatment.REPORT COMMENTS

I had one Lupron injection, which was the 11.25 mg.. It is the worst thing ever! I can stand all the normal menopausal side effects. What is the worst is while on lupron I experienced memory loss,dizziness, insomnia, anxiety, depression, constant gnawing bone/joint pain, osteoarthritis, fibromyalgia. Now the drug should be out of my body! You would think it was but not! I get extreme headaches, bad cramps, joints hurt worse, sex drive gone, depression why worse. The fibro. is seeming to be worse, this anxiety is bad. What is my problem is I have no period at all. It's been 90 days after my firstand last injection. What is going on. It is destroying my life. I have no insurance and the dr.'s won't help I feel like I was just a lab rat! :(REPORT COMMENTS

My wife took this drug over five years ago and she has been sick (joint pain, stomach pains, head aches, skin pain, muscle pain, and fatigue that puts her in bed for sometimes four days in a row. I have seen her so exhausted that she has slept over 16 hours straight. It is causing amazing stress on her, on me, on our kids, and everyone else in the family. I am losing my mind and health trying to do everything for our family and researching trying to find a doctor who may be able to help. We have been to many doctors. She takes several medications and supplements but very few have provided her much relief. I am totally convinced that Lupron is what started all this pain and suffering.REPORT COMMENTS

I took Lupron twice; the last about three years ago. Since I have taken this drug, symptoms started which includes severe depression, muscle pain, bone and joint pain, mysterious rashes. I am currently seeing a rheumatologist to find out what's wrong. He has found that I have a vitamin D deficiency and enlarged thyroid. I feel the vitamin deficiency is primarily from the Lupron. I am very upset that my doctor that prescribed the Lupron didn't watch my levels during and after administration. If she had, maybe my levels wouldn't be so bad and my pain much less.REPORT COMMENTS

Hello I am 27 yrs old nd just finished my 2nd 6 month does of lupron for severe endo. I took adback therapy with this dose to help with the agony of the side effects I experienced yrs ago. I have been off of it for 3 months now just waiting for a period. Nothing...but I sure do have random terrible pains....headaches....terrble body aches...fatigue. I go to the hospital and they blame it on endo. I'm blessed to have an adorable 2 yr old andpossibly want to try and have one more but I can barely get motiated to play with my daughter. I'm super depressed and I feel that my love ones get frustrated with me complaining all the time. Please just make endo known in the world...it is a terrible disease that can't be controlled and barely managed. I need to find a support group quick because I feel like I'm barely hanging on.....EDUCATE PLEASEREPORT COMMENTS
