Decapeptyl side effects

How soon after decapeptyl injections do you feel the side affects? Had my first injection yesterday and I'm nervous about the side effects kicking in.

How have you got on with decapeptyl?

I'm 3 and a half months in from starting having decapeptyl injections. Some hot flushes but manageable with a hand held fan. I have been ratty with my loved ones but apologised straight away as knew it was my hormones. I've been getting a mild headache too.

The pain from my endo started easing after about a week with then about 6 weeks of very mild and manageable pain. Unfortunately since then the pain has come back big time.

Hope this helps
