Title: Extreme fatigue on Cyproterone Acetate?
Post by: Apples Mk.II on March 26, 2014, 04:08:53 PM
It's been one month since my AA dosage got doubled. On december I was switched from spiro to its androcur equivalent dosage with noticeable results, but on February 20th the endo doubled the amount to reduce even more the T.

On the first week I did not notice anything, and right now I still have a fully functioning libido, but the changes have come in another area: I'm far less motivated and always lacking energies to do even the more basic things. I am always tired, and beverages such as coffee or even energy drinks have a much shorter effect. Each day I go earlier to bed, not because I feel I should be sleeping , but because I am already extenuated. So much that I am able to sleep even with the voices of my neighbours and without requiring a white noise generator anymore. Even when playing a non action videogame I fall asleep.

Is there any possibilities that once I fully adjust to the new dosage I will recover a bit of energy? Previously I could not take caffeine after 17:00, but at this rate I'm going to need and afternoon coffee to keep going on. Anyways, I think I will have to check the thread tomorrow... My eyes are closing already.
