GnRH Agonist Treatment to Protect Ovaries from Chemopause

agness

I came across reference to the use of GnRH agonists (in example Lupron) to help put the ovaries to rest during chemo treatment. Have you heard anything about this? Was it offered to you?

If we are shooting for a cure of my cancer I'd like to help choose the least-destructive path possible. My mother didn't go through menopause until her early 50s, that's 10 more years that would be biologically normal for me. I'm thinking about sexual issues, bone density, etc.
