i bled 7 weeks on lupron (started about week 5 or 6). part of it was
the lack of estrogen. the nurse explained it like my lining needed to
column together and hadn't had time. i had started lupron 10 days into
my cycle, so that's why i had some build-up. they gave me 14 days of
estrogen to stop the bleeding, but only after the nurse yelled at my
doctor about it.
good luck. hope it's an easy answer like mine was.
