Headaches and Insomnia... Am I going mad?

[Shellbell2023]

Hi All, I haven't posted in a while, but I feel like I'm hitting rock bottom again 🙈I was doing well on 4-weekly Prostap with add-back tibolone, so my GP suggested, for ease, to move to 12-weekly Prostap, that was 6 weeks ago.

Since having that, I have had almost daily headaches, some to the point of full-blown migraines, where I'm having to try and lay in a dark room for up to 3 days at a time. The other problem, is I am struggling to sleep, most nights I get about 4 hours at best, and because it has been going on for almost 6 weeks now I'm loosing the plot. I don't know what to do with myself, has anyone else experience this? If so, is there anything that helped?

So sorry you are having bad side effects, have you spoken to GP to see if there is anything to negate it?

Obviously too much in one go having a three monthly unfortunately with these things you don’t know until you try.

I really hope things settle soon or GP can help.

Thank you for your reply! I have spoken to my GP, they have suggested trying Evorel Conti patches, so hopefully that will help... But I guess it's just a waiting game in the meantime 🙈
