Hi All,
Had RT for PC that ended in April. Had a 3 month dose of Lupron in late February and then again at the end of May, so it should have begun to wear off the end of August. It is now the end of October and no symptom relief in sight. Regular hot flashes, no libido, ED, etc.. Am I just slow to recover or is this normal? 65 years old, 5’9” and 160. Regular hiker and cyclist. Libido and erectile function was normal before Lupron. USA based. Thanks!
6 months of Lupron…will be up to another 6 months to regain normal…so, by next February you should be clear of all side effects. Will return to normal gradually
