A member asked:

Had lupron (leuprolide) injection about a week and a half ago and have been having bad pelvic pain and a bad headache. how soon should this resolve?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

2-3 weeks after shot: Since Lupron (leuprolide) initially stimulates the receptors, it is common to have some pain ( if that's the problem) for 2-3 wks after the injection. This shouldn't be a problem with subsequent injections.
