Hi, This comment in case you have any interest. I was in Lupron for 6 months and finisehd in January. I just got my period for the first time after Lupron this april 10th since january. It was painfull but not as much as I thought. I hope it will not become painful my next month. I did gained about 25lbs with Lupron within these 6 months. Now that maybe is out of my system, I started feeling normal and I lost about 7 lbs. already. I was reading that Lupron sometimes have different side effects, sometimes people gain weight and sometimes lose weight. I hope my experience will help you figure out your concern.
