Cabergoline efficacy

I just wanted to share my experience with cabergoline after being diagnosed a month ago (23M) with a 10x9x10mm macro prolactinoma.

The first blood work I got before starting cabergoline measured my prolactin levels at 840 ng/ml. I didn't have any symptoms other than low libido so the diagnosis was completely accidental after a brain MRI that my neurologist ordered because of migraines.

After starting 0,25mg of cabergoline twice a week for 3 weeks I got my prolactin checked again and now it has dropped to 25 ng/ml which surprised me quite a bit for just 3 weeks of treatment.

Although the results are good, I'm having some side effects from the medication like really bad nausea and dizziness that comes and goes throughout the day and that now I sweat much more.

I'd like to know how quickly your prolactin levels dropped after starting treatment.
