FwmapI'm experiencing leg pain (calf and thigh) which may or may not be the result of hip replacement surgery last October. I am also being treated for prostate cancer with Lupron Depot 30, having had two injections to date (one 1 month and one 4 month) and am due for another four month injection in September.
In men, does the use of Lupron 30 ever cause blood clots?

Pulmonary embolism (a sudden blockage in a lung artery, usually due to a blood clot that traveled to the lung from the leg) has been reported as a side effect from Lupron Depot
See: http://www.drugs.com/sfx/lupron-depot-side-effects.html
You should see you doctor about your leg pain as soon as you can.
