I had it done a few years ago, and my side effects were all temporary.  Increased dryness in the eyes; this happens to everyone for a few weeks, but it lasted a few months for me since I had dry eyes going into the surgery.\n\nI saw halos around streetlights at night for the first few weeks, then that went away as well.\n\nI would recommend going in for a consultation to talk to a doctor about the side effects and risks.  Most consults are free, even if you decide against the surgery.  They can tell you what to expect, specific to your eyesight.\n\nI'd recommend it to everyone.  It doesn't hurt, tis just a little awkward during the surgery.  But hey, a little awkwardness for 5 minutes has been worth years of contact-free and glasses-free eyes.

I don't take that type of bc but with every bc or medication you take there are possible side effects.. here is a list of side effects and information on the medication. \n\nNausea, vomiting, headache, stomach cramping/bloating, dizziness, vaginal discomfort/irritation, increased vaginal fluids, or breast tenderness/enlargement may occur. Acne may improve or get worse. Vaginal bleeding between periods (spotting) or missed/irregular periods may occur, especially during the first few months of use. If any of these effects persist or worsen, notify your doctor promptly. If you miss 2 periods in a row (or 1 period if the pill has not been used properly), contact your doctor for a pregnancy test.\n\nRemember that your doctor has prescribed this medication because the benefit to you is greater than the risk of side effects. Many people using this medication do not have serious side effects.\n\nTell your doctor immediately if any of these serious side effects occur: changes in vaginal bleeding (e.g., continuous spotting, sudden heavy bleeding, missed periods), problem wearing contact lenses, dark patches on the skin (melasma), unwanted facial/body hair, swelling of the ankles/feet, weight changes (gain or loss).\n\nThis medication may rarely cause serious (sometimes fatal) problems from blood clots (e.g., pulmonary embolism, stroke, heart attack). Seek immediate medical attention if you experience: sudden shortness of breath, chest/jaw/left arm pain, confusion, coughing up blood, sudden dizziness/fainting, pain/swelling/warmth in the groin/calf, tingling/weakness/numbness in the arms/legs, headaches that are different from those you may have experienced in the past (e.g., headaches with other symptoms such as vision changes/lack of coordination, existing migraines becoming worse, sudden/very severe headaches), slurred speech, weakness on one side of the body, vision problems/changes.\n\nTell your doctor immediately if any of these rare but very serious side effects occur: lumps in the breast, severe stomach/abdominal/pelvic pain, mental/mood changes (e.g., depression, suicidal thoughts, persistent trouble sleeping), unusual tiredness, dark urine, yellowing eyes/skin.\n\nA very serious allergic reaction to this drug is unlikely, but seek immediate medical attention if it occurs. Symptoms of a serious allergic reaction include: rash, itching, swelling, severe dizziness, trouble breathing.\n\nIf you notice other effects not listed above, contact your doctor or pharmacist.

You are definitely right to look into Lupron's side effects.  If we were to believe the docs and Takeda Abbott Pharmaceutical's prescribing literature, we'd all think Lupron was the greatest thing since sliced bread.  It's not.\n\nSide effects are potentially extremely negative and long-lasting, and include (as reported by the manufacturer itself):\n\nIncluding but not limited to - Asthenia, General pain, Headache, Hot flashes/sweats, Nausea/vomiting, GI disturbances, Edema, Weight gain/loss, Acne, Hirsutism, Joint disorder, Myalgia, Decreased libido, Depression/emotional lability, Dizziness, Nervousness, Neuromuscular disorders, Paresthesias, Skin reactions at injection site, Breast changes/tenderness/pain, Vaginitis, Flu-like symptoms, Heart palpitations, Syncope, Tachycardia, Appetite changes, Dry mouth, Thirst, Ecchymosis, Lymphadenopathy, Anxiety, Insomnia/Sleep disorders, Delusions, Memory disorder, Personality\ndisorders, Rhinitis, Alopecia, Hair disorder, Nail\ndisorder, Conjunctivitis, Ophthalmologic disorders, Taste perversion, and Dysuria. \n\nTypically, users of Lupron experience what is known as Clinical Flare, which is an exacerbation of side effects and symptoms during the first 2 injections or so; after about the 3rd injection, the symptoms for which you are using the drug (i.e., Endometriosis) may begin to temporarily decrease.\n\nHopefully, because of the way in which you are taking it and the reason for which you are taking it (which is off-label usage, not that it's that big of a deal), you will be one of the lucky ones who only experiences minimal side effects for a short time and in whom the drug is effective and has no negative effects. Good luck to you.

Hair loss (alopecia) can be a side effect of coumadin, though not very common.  I hope you are regularly having your INR checked by a clinic/doctor?  You should bring this up at your appointment and I recommend you discuss this with your doctor as there are a number of possible medical reasons for hair loss.

It is not a common side effect, though it is considered a rare one. I would call your doctor, as water retention is a rare side effect of this medication

Samantha-\n\nI rec'd a direct mail piece on Proxenol, and did some investigation...it appears that there are no side effects, other than reducing your wallet by $39.95, $20.95 or $19.95. There is a health forum discussion you can find via google, and several have tried this supplement, and it appears to be useless. - Todd

As Dr lentfer said it is now off the market and largely unavailable. I have taken it in the past for weight loss and alertness and found it to definitely reduce my appetite and also improve my alertness, but I also felt very nervous, had "palpitations" and had trouble sleeping even up to 16 hours after taking it! I do not recommend it, I feel the ill effects are worse than the benefits.

Methandriol dipropionate does not directly convert to estrogen, thus it has a low incidence of estrogen-related side effects, such as gynecomastia, water retention, and fat deposition, which are usually minimal if they occur. As Methandriol dipropionate has an androgenic component, typical androgenic-related side effects are possible: oily skin, acne, increased body hair, and scalp hairloss if prone to male pattern baldness.
