The most common side effects are menopausal symptoms, including loss of a period, hot flashes and night sweats. Women with a history of mental health issues should NEVER take Lupron, as it can cause a severe worsening of these symptoms. Long term use (more than 6 months) can also put you at higher risk of developing osteoporosis as it weakens bone density. Make sure to take a calcium supplement for the duration of your Lupron treatment.

I am on the Lupron shot and Norethindrone pill now and I work out and eat right! the shot effects everyone differently; depending on your lifestyle! I have actually lost some weight since I got my 1st shot October 10, 2012. I also take multivitamins: Milk Thistle, Biotin, B-12, and women's one a day.
