Fibroid Shrinkage
Question about a uterine fibroid?
I have a large uterine fibroid that is bigger than my uterus. My treatment consists of 3 lupron shots to decrease the size before surgery. I just got my 3rd shot today and they did an ultrasound, which showed that the fibroid had only shrunk 1 cm. It’s still too big to have laproscopic surgery done at this size. I was wondering if anyone has had or knows if the third lupron shot should produce the most shrinkage?? Thanks!!
It can take 3 months of being on the Lupron to find out if it’s going to help shrink the fibroid. This third shot is when you may notice the most improvement.
I have the link to a site that may be able to give you even more information. It’s at: http://forums.obgyn.net/womens-health
