Any itchyness from Lupron?

Post by winter08 »

I'm starting my first IVF, and have been taking Lupron for a week. Every time after the shot in the evening, I got a mild itchyness at the injection site for about 15 minutes. I wonder if anyone here has the same experience. Will that be okay?

I had the exact same problem--I even got a little rash right at the site. My RE said it was fairly common; after about 5 or 6 days, I stopped getting a rash and was only a tiny bit itchy, but at the start it was dreadful!

Hi..

Yup, i had the exact same reaction.. it would last for about the same amount of time...
I took lupron for nearly 3 weeks leading up to my ER.. and my reactions seemed to subside after about a week or so..

Best of luck!!!
