Has anyone here taken Lupron for Precocious puberty, is now an adult and have unexplicable symptoms?
Question:
Answers:
Prostate tumors like testosterone, and the cancer medication defeats the production of testosterone so the tumor won't grow. This leads to secondary symptoms such as growth of breast tissue (but beats dying anyday!) Women also have testosterone (but balanced with estrogen and progesterone), and maybe that's what causes precocious puberty, but I'm guessing.
I thought Lupron was only for cancer. My hubby has prostate cancer and he took it for awhile.
