How long have you been on Lupron? Did you know you should only take this drug for a few months? Any reputable doctor should know this, but I keep reading that women are on it for YEARS, so I guess not all of them do know it. I wouldn't take Lupron AT ALL considering all the possible side effects, including stuff like seizures. Sometimes these symptoms don't go away even long after the woman has stopped taking the drug. In my opinion this is a really dangerous drug, after reading about all the side effects woman are having and the fact that over 6,000 women have filed complaints with the FDA over this drug AND that is has NEVER been tested as a cure for Endo. (I don't think it's been tested on women AT ALL.... it was designed for men.)

Anyway if you are on it, you should only do it for a short period of time. Maybe that is what is causing your hair loss problem and there may not be a fix until you go off of it and your hormones can get back in balance.

You should read some of the old posts on this drug. Maybe there is something mentioned in there. (You can search for particular words).
