Re: My breasts have shrank (Lupron)

I don't think you have to worry about them not coming back...with how
the Lupron works in general, it's a temporary "fix" for everything..the
pain, the endo, the size of your boobs...once you stop the treatment,
within a year, you're pretty much where you left off.
I started working out before I started the Lupron, though, and so that
might be contributing to the decreased size for me...I've lost about 10
lbs in the last two months. When I was on Synarel, I had the baffling
side effect of weight gain combined with breast-loss, so this time, I'm
determined to not gain ANY weight. So far, so good. Shot #2 is
Thursday for me, and I'm hoping I don't pass out again!
