Yeah, makes you wonder why they don’t tell you before you start the therapy so you can avoid it in the first place! It’s not exactly a side effect that most men wouldn’t want to have to deal with after all.
Relugolix is a gonadotropin suppressing agent just like Lupron. It’s really new, so I don’t know a whole lot about how much more effective, if at all, it is than Lupron. In my opinion the best thing about it is that it’s an oral drug and doesn’t have to be injected.

I'm on it and don't have an answer for effectiveness related to Lupron, but, my doc told me the reason for using it was my age. He believes that the recovery once we stop taking the drug will be quicker and more complete than the recovery from Lupron...I'll get back to ya on that 🙂
