I am considering removing my ovaries. I am 43. Did you have the surgery done? And what is your experience with the surgery do you still have the same side effect with the surgery as you did with the Lupron?

Good morning,

I had laparoscopic surgery to have my ovaries removed and it was the best thing I ever did. I had gained so much weight being on the Lupron injection. All of that dropped after I had my surgery.

I hope this helps.

I had my ovaries removed at 43. I knew I could do the Lupron shot every month for 5 years. I was on Tamoxifen at the ti.r but I believe the Lypron shot gave me side effects of feeling terrible. So achy hard to move and tired!!!
After ovaries were out I was switched to an AI. I knew in a few weeks I coyld stay on thst one ( I cried all rhe timw)time. I'm now on Exemestane and Effexor to help with hot flashes. Good luck to you!!!
