It is really hard to say that if you quit the Lupron early it will harm your chances of conceiving and/or increase your chances of getting another cyst. If you are tolerating the Lupron well enough, stick with it if you can.
I do understand the anxiety about wanting to ttc again-that is the hard part about doing Lupron. Have you talked with your doctor about a plan? The first time I did Lupron for 6 months, I had a doctor's appointment about 6 weeks or so after my last injection and I hadn't gotten my period yet. I told my doctor I was very anxious to resume ttc and I started taking Provera and within 10 days, my period returned.
Maybe talk with your doctor to get a plan together and let him/her know that you don't want to wait a long time for your period so you can start ttc as soon as you are able to. I conceived 2 of my pregnancies after Lupron-one with injections (to jump start my ovaries) and one without medical assistance.
I was on Lupron for 9 months and was ttc right after it did nothing for me. I recently found out one ovary is not functioning anymore and the other is attached to my uterus. Looks like IVF or another Lap. I am just very leery about it's actual success!
I had a Lap and 6 mos of Lupron followed by another Lap. It was FRUSTRATING!!! I HATED Lupron. It didn't work for me but I have heard that it has worked wonders for others. It is such a hard decision.
I wasn't able to get pregnant again and had to have a hysterectomy. My Endo was on the outsides of my organs and caused a ton of issues.

Thanks so much that really helps.
My doctor told me that doing the 6 months of Lupron will help "kill-off" any endo that is left behind after the surgery that couldn't be lasered out. I believe that this will INCREASE your chances of getting pregnant. That only problem is that you have to wait for your period to return after doing the Lupron. I completed my last month of injections in February. I took the ortho evra patch for March, and then I took it off and got my period right away which was good. I've heard it both ways that it can take a few months for your period to return. I think you should check with your doctor to see how important it is to complete the total 6 months considering you want to TTC soon. I wouldn't want to risk getting another cyst, but if you want to TTC and need your period to return before you try....
I hope that helps!!
