I have endometriosis and had a lap in December. Our first FET in March sadly ended in a chemical, but since implantation *did* occur my doctor is wary to do another one without a little boost first - so we are doing 2 months of Lupron before the next one.

I’m wondering from those of you that did Lupron depot injections, what else were you prescribed? Right now I’m going to be doing letrozole and also continuing 5mg of norethindrone but my doctor did say after the first week I can go to every other day or stop that one all together if I choose to since it’s prescribed to manage lupron side effects.

Just wondering from those of you who have done this/are doing this what you are taking! 😃.

I’m looking for help from anyone who has been through this. I had a failed FET (ended in a chemical) last month and after the withdraw bleed my doctor put me on 2 weeks of Norethindrone to gear up for 2 months of hormone suppression with Lupron (my first shot is in two days).

The problem is I am SO bloated and have been since my chemical. I can’t even wear any of my pants I was comfortably wearing prior to my FET. I’m desperate…I don’t know what to do. How can I elevate this without turning to aggressive fasting and cardio (I currently have a knee injury so there’s only so much I can do).

For those that did Lupron, did it help with the bloat??

Any tips appreciated. 🙏🏻
