A member asked:

What % of men get diabetes on hormone therapy lupron (leuprolide)?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

IT'S A RISK: Elevation of blood sugar (hyperglycemia) and development of diabetes has been reported in people who use lupron (leuprolide). No specific percentage, the most important thing is to have your glucose levels monitored by your doctor. If necessary then treat.
