In my experience, you can reverse the symptoms with a lot less than
2000mcg. As little as 100mcg per month can work, depending on a
number of factors. The only real way to know how much will effect a
reversal of symptoms is to start out low and wait and see. Two of
mine previously received 150mcg of the one-month Lupron and it worked
great. That would equal 600mcg of the four-month Lupron...
considerably less than 2000mcg.
