Guest guest Posted August 4, 2003 Report Share Posted August 4, 2003 Hi group, I was so surprised to check my mail, and find a discussion going about Lupron! Saturday, I saw a patient that I have been working with for fertility, for the past 3 months. She has a history of endometriosis, polyps, and a chocolate type cyst... all was removed about 1 year ago. Her usual Doc has left the country, and so she saw new Doc for a Pap smear. This Doc starts looking at her chart and says OH you should be on some medication... and wanted her to get on Lupron and Birth Control... right away! Not only that told her she should not even think about getting pregnant. She does not have any typical S/S associated with the endometriosis. No heavy bleeding, no clotting, no painful intercourse. Since we have been working together, her periods have been regulated at 27 days, no PMS, nomore headaches prior to bleeding... ovulating at day 12. 1 year ago she had a HSG test and her tubes were open. So, I see no reason why she cannot concieve, other then she is 35. Of course, my patient is not going back to this Doctor... and she will be going to get another opinion.
