Received My First Injection April 13, 2015
UpdatedI finally decided to take the 3 month injection. So far I have been on my cycle for 17 days, I have hot flashes at night and I have mood swings. I am praying this drug works and shrinks my fibroids. It is extremely difficult to live a normal life when you bleed constantly and have clots suddenly that requires you to go to the restroom often. Best of luck everyone!

How is it working for you?
Lupaneta is actually used to restrict the hormones that usually cause the pain associated with endometriosis. It works by suppressing estrogen, which is the same hormone that can sometimes cause the growth of fibroids.
Its typical side effects may possibly include acne, headaches, hot flashes, mood swings and sadness.
Have you considered surgery to remove them?
I did the lupanetta pack about 12 months ago. I had surgery to show i had endometriosis prior and pain was still prevalent a month after surgery and getting worse than before. They put me on the treatment. I was scared to - THERE IS NO INFORMATION FROM PATIENTS YOU CAN REALLY FIND!! so i did the first two inj's. as the one months since i know im sensitive to the hormone changes.... It felt like poison going into me- for the first day i was dizzy, nauseous and didnt feel like i could focus. The following months to come my pain overall in my entire body increased - but my stomach wasnt hurting as bad.. I became emotional and unable to focus at work. Felt worthless. Aches got so bad i didnt want to move but couldnt stop my life for a treatment. I went in and did the three month dose. Worst ever. hot flashes, nausea, pain, irritability, weakness, etc... Worse is that my Doctor and the company that i was giving symptamatic updates to never realy helped me in any way other than saying, "well we havent had any reports of that yet"... I basically feel like a test subject after it all. I stopped taking progesterone months into my third inj. with out doctors approval due to their uncaring approach.. I was scared going into it and now im scared coming out. Its been over 6 months since my last inj. and i still have not had my period and i have symptoms of Fibromyalgia. So im not sure what to think. No one has a case like me but there is also no Forums. . . So i wonder who else has had major complications and doctors let it persist? I just really hope it hasn't destroyed me in some permanent way..
Re: Alice (# 2)
I feel your pain. There REALLY is no knowledge out there. I've been researching for months with no luck. Thankfully I just took my last injection yesterday. So ready for this nastiness to be out of my system. Truly horrible. HORRIBLE.
