Those two hormone are add-back and very important with helping to curb the side effects of instant chemical menopause.

I love that I do not have a period and being on Lupron also helps keep my migraines under control.

How long have you been on Lupron? If you have just started it you will have one more period but after that you should not get one while you get the injections. Are you getting the one month, three month, or six month?

i dont know if it would show kidney stones.  that is one thing ive never had.....you will feel them burst, even little ones you can feel burst, but the severity isnt as bad. im in the same boat as you have one that is a nice size and i have to be careful with my one year old jumping on me. but ive been told that just laughing can cause it to burst, walking, coughing...it doesnt take much.they may shrink before they burst though, so stay positive, even though i know its hard when your in pain all of the time.

Is there any for sure way of knowing if one bursts?? I have 2 pretty big ones on either ovary! And I'm worried that doing too much will make it burst! I don't know if it is my kidney or not!! But even still I am having a lot of pain in my right side mid back. Right around my kidney!! The only that I has seem to work at the moment is Tramacet!!
I don't think they are going to put me on Birth Control. I think they would have by now!
And I have no problem with down there, that I know of. I'm normally not "dry" when that happens. But I may try lube and see if it helps.
My doctor is getting me in for another ultrasound on my kidney to check it would again! Would an ultrasound show kidney stones if that is the cause of my constant pain!?!

well when birth control didn't work for me, (i would still get my period all the time for long periods of time, or go 2 or 3 months without it) and i had many sonos that showed the cysts, and i had 2 big ones pop a year apart, the doctor diagnosed me with it. im actually confused at this point with lupron, because my doctor put me on it to stop my period, and put my body into menopause to stop the growth of endometriosis. so in a way it was like birth control. i dont think they would put you on anything else. honestly, nothing ever really stops the pain, after the cysts pop the fluid in it gets reabsorbed into your body, but they shouldve given you an antibiotic for it, thats what my doctor has done in the past incase of an infection, even if none showed in blood work or urine test. but if your having problems with your kidneys then you should see the urologist for it. oh and i just read some of your post over again, as far as sex, if your getting the shot once a month, there may be trouble in little china, get yourself some lube, there is a good chance of it being the sahara desert.  your hormones wont be there to keep you lubricated.
