GnRH analogue

Hello. Does anyone have any experience of GnRH analogues? They are injections that stop your periods to give you some relief. It’s temporary for 3-6 months. Just wondered what the side effects were. Also any experience of Tibolone (Livial). It’s an HRT tablet to help manage side effects of injections

Thank you
