    Depo Lupron Shot! Has anyone else taken one?
    I found out in May I have endometriosis and soon after took a 3 month shot of Depo Lupron ( similar to depo provera, for birth control). It sends your body into "pretend" menopause to help stop the growth of the endometriosis. I am having a tuff time with the menopaue symptoms and I don't know if I should just have a hysterectomy or see if this helps. I am due in August for my second and final shot. You can only take it for 6 months. The night sweats, mood swings, emotional roller coaster is awful but I have the endo on my bladder and bowels and my gyno has said hormone replacement will just cause it to keep growing. Any suggestions because I feel like I am losing it at 34 yrs old!

    There is a daily pill your doc can subscribe to you to decrease your symptoms.
