So far I have had 3 1 month shots and each month my symptoms are worse. I have bad hot flashes and I am also on progesterone tablets.
I’m so sorry to hear it hasn’t gotten any better and that you’re going through this.
I have to make a decision between Lupron or IUD as the birth control pill is no longer an option for me. What does everyone feel is better for pain relief and elimination of growth?
I have the Mirena IUD as birth control and still use Lupron for endo. So it’s not really a choice between the two. Lupron was hard on my overall system but I got significant pain relief from my… read more
Hey ladies! I will be having my left ovary removed soon. I keep becoming septic and in and out of the hospital. My Doctor would like me to start on Orilissa after my surgery. Can I hear your stories about this medication?
Hi ladies. I am new here and i guess relatively new to the world of endo. I went to the ER about 2 month's ago for pain that wasnt going away. They found a large cyst on my left ovary after multiple tests. I found an amazing dr and he did excision surgery a month ago. He said i have stage 4 endo. He removed the cyst and the endo he could but unfortunately alot remains. I am starting Lupron on Monday (dr also stated hes putting me on an "add on" medication as well).

Any one taking orillisa pills?
How have you been feeling??
What is everyone's opinions and experiences on the Lupron shot?
I did. I wouldn't do it again. My cyst has grown.. Pain is just as severe and then you have the awful side effects.
Hi girls!!I was on lypron 3.75 and its been 8weeks since my last injection and still no period.How long it takes to come back??
I was given a Lupron shot that was to last 3 months and had horrible side effects. Now my OBGYN is wanting me to go through another 3 month round and I don’t know what to expect. Will the symptoms not be as severe this time or should I expect them to get worse? He’s telling me that the Orlissa won’t work to shrink them and it isn’t an option, are there any other options I could bring up? I really do not want to go through this again.
I am starting on the Lupron injections Friday. I will be on it for 6 months my doctor seems to think that it is going to help me with my endo and also thinks that when I come off of it I wont have any problems getting pregnant afterwards. I am just wanting to see what the success rate has been with getting pregnant after the Lupron. TIA
