Lupron side effects

Post by birdie »

Has anyone had high blood pressure as a side effect from Lupron? I am currently preparing for a FET and I started on BCP then transitioned to using Lupron and Estrace. I am due to have my FET the first week of May but I'm now being told that I will most likely have to cancel because my blood pressure is so high. I know that BCPs can also cause your blood pressure to rise but I stopped them two weeks ago and it is still high. Anyone encounter a similar situation?

Try one last time in Nov. '09?

Hi Birdie, no high blood pressure but I seem to be a bit tired. I'm on my 4th day of Lupron.

I never had my blood pressure check while doing lupron. I did get headaches when I was taking 20u of lupron so it could of made my blood pressure higher and caused my headaches. Lots of women have complained about headaches as a side effect of lupron.

Thank you for posting this thread! I am sooooo TIRED on Lupron. I started 10 units on Sunday (5 days in.) I was never told about this side effect, and was wondering if anyone has had a similar experience?

Also, where do you guys inject your Lupron? I have been rotating from thigh to stomach...

Haven't had any night sweats yet, but I was warned about that side effect.
