I took Lupron at age 15 for a full 10 months after a lap, and it was a horrible drug. It not only did not stop menstruation or the pain of my endo, the side effects were too much. The "emotional instability" is a nice way of saying "suicidal tendencies" and sever depression. I have been treated for endo since I was 14 and had 3 surgeries and multiple drug therapies and nothing has been as bad as this drug. When I was 24, my (different) doctor recommended it to switch off of depo provera for a while and I refused because I will never go back to it. I would never recommend anyone take this drug.
