Lupron is just a temporary relief just like surgeries, there is no cure for pain just short term treatments. I did not take the lupron, I meet a girl in the hospital next to me that has endometriosis also, she did the lupron and experienced many side effects, for her she lost her hair and looked like a cancer patient, she also broke two bones leg and arm due to bone loss.

Every person reacts differently however the short term effects should not be out weighed by the possible long term risks and effects.

In 1999 the FDA review of Lupron was published 40+ side effects.

Good Luck with any choice you make. Be Well...
