A member asked:
Told devolped a fibroid while taken lupron (leuprolide) for 3 months. could this be something else, since lupron (leuprolide) shirnks fibroids and not lets them grow?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Fibroids and Lupron (leuprolide): Not all fibroids will shrink on lupron (leuprolide). This may be a fibroid which was not seen prior to treatment, one which is not very sensitive to estrogen, or another process. The best way to look at this would be with ultrasound or, if ultrasound does not give the answer, mri.
