A member asked:
I suffer menstrual migraine. being put on decapeptyl injections soon for other issues but could this make my migraine worse?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Might or might not: Headache is listed as very common (>10%) side effect of Decapeptyl, but these are not necessarily migraines. Decapeptyl is going to change your hormonal cycles (that's why you're being put on it, I assume) which might themselves be responsible for your menstrual migraines. So you might have no change at all, might improve, or might get an additional form of headache. Good luck!
