HER2 Support Group Forums - View Single Post - need advice for pre-menop ovary suppression

I was 45 at time of dx, 47 now, triple positive. Chemo put me into menopause and I have been taking Lupron shots for 10 months to insure that I stay that way. All bloodwork confirms complete menopausal status, but onc will continue Lupron for another year.

Neither my surgeon, nor my onc were in favor of removing ovaries, preferred Lurpon instead. Other health factors may have played a part in their determination for me.
