Hi,
In an IVF cycle lupron prevents premature ovulation- so fertility docs use it for a period of time to suppress estrogen and androgen production, then come in with gonadotropins to stimulate the ovaries for maximum # of eggs. It's also used in women with severe endometriosis. Hope that helps- judy
