Hi Rupali,
There was no talk of shutting my ovaries down with lupron because personally I would not have done that. Although, I am older than you (44) I am finished having my children (11year twins) so I would have gotten removal of my ovaries before I did lupron. But, you are much younger and lupron is a good way to preserve the ovaires if you want children. Since my period has been skipping months they feel I am heading to menopause anyway. I am on the tamoxifen and have been since 10/03. The first plan was keeping on that for the full five years then switching over to amridex. Now she is wanting me to be deciding on femora and armidex this time next year. If I am not menopausal by then, then I will have them take my ovaries out. I could push to have my ovaries out now, but mentally I am not ready for another surgery or recovery time.
Hope this helps some, feel free to email me anytime.
