There are many types of Leuprolides - Lupron, Eligard, Prostap, Camcevi, and Lucrin.

> Eligard is usually administered subcutaneously (I had mine injected in my belly - twice);
> Lupron is usually administered intramuscularly.

No matter if it’s subcutaneous or intramuscular injection, there are many locations on the body where Leuprolides can be injected.

When Lupron was in low supply A few years ago I had to take Eligard. They gave it to me almost exactly in the same spot they gave me Lupron shots, my hip. Not sure it’s exactly the same but it sure was close.
