Ep33: Orilissa and Lupron. Part 2B – How Effective is Lupron?

Episode updated 11/2022. Lupron is commonly prescribed as a medical treatment for endometriosis. However, Lupron only treats the symptoms of endo, not the disease itself. How effective is it at actually alleviating symptoms? Is it worth the serious side effects and risks - some of which can be permanent - that can come with taking it? We talk about the hidden data, the falsified data, and the cherry-picked data that the published data is based on. We also talk about Lupron compared to birth control, and independent surveys reporting the effectiveness of Lupron for the people taking it for endo. If you are thinking about taking Lupron, this episode is definitely for you! CONNECT WITH US! INSTAGRAM: @in16yearsofendo WEBSITE AND RESOURCES: insixteenyears.com LIKE OUR SHOW?
