Lupron Question

Post by Danie454 »

I have a lupron question.

Does everyone get a peroid on Lupron? My doctor said to expect mine yesterday or today.. ( darn thing never comes when you want it too) and It has yet to appear.

Does anyone else have a no show? Can I still do the IVF if it doesn't happen? Im probably just confused. LOL

Thanks!

Danielle,

My doctor had me on birth control pills which I started 2 weeks before the Lupron. 2 days before the Lupron, i started having breakthrough bleeding from the pills. When I started Lupron, the bleeding got a little worse. I called my docs office and the nurse told me that spotting and breakthrough bleeding was very normal and that I may not get my period because of it. When it came time for my period (like a week later) - it was extremely light and it only lasted for a day and a half. I never needed more than a panty liner. I was reassured that this is normal. I think some women just get a little spotting when they are on Lupron and that is what is considered their period. I would call your doctors office to be sure, but this is what I know from my experience.

Good luck.
