LUPRON-- Inject in the same place?!?!?
I forgot to ask! When I inject the Lupron,...its the same place near the belly button right?!?!!?
Does it matter what side!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

My instructions were to inject it directly below.the belly button. I did if about an inch or so below. Hth!
ETA: Not sure who your dr is, but that's what my paperwork told me to do, which surprised me. It didn't hurt at all, though I have some extra fat, so... 
Anywhere you take a subcu. shot should be fine. Doesn't matter which side you do it on- it won't affect anything.

My Dr said to do it to the side of the belly button and to alternate sides each night. Here is a helpful video on injecting all meds and the Lupron one shows the spot: Lupron Video

I have done it both in the stomach and upper thigh. For the stomach, it should be around 2 inches from your belly button on either side, just not below. Good lick!
