Yes It's normal to have a little irritation. Where are you injecting it. Lupron is a microfine needle and shouldn't be to irritating to your skin. How much lupron are you taking?

You might want to put a warm compress on it immediately after the injection. I also find it easier to do the belly injections myself. DH only does the butt injections.

Yes the same thing happened to me. The welt goes away on its own. Make sure the alcohol is dry before you take the shot.
