Help With Hormonal Migraine
Hi
I have had migraines for many years now. Recently they have became more often 2 to 3 times per month and i am now at my wits end. My doctors are not good they even said there is no such thing as hormonal migraine. i am new to forums and i was wondering if anyone can give advice on hormonal migraines with remedies etc? I am 39 years old Female and have no children as of yet. I am reading progesterone cream can help hormonal migraines but i am unsure about this..any advice on that would be appreciated. Is there any other good forums or sites to follow.My migraines usually start on a night time and lead to me vomiting in the morning then being bid ridden all day...i think most of you know how it is...any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Hi quelly,

I do hope that helps,

Hello Nancy,
At about your age, my doctor put me on birth control pills with no placebo week (meaning I never have a period.) I'm now fifty-one, haven't had a period in over ten years, and thus no menstrual migraines (which were my worst and often landed me in the ER.) Doctor says I can stay on them until I'm fifty-five, and that's my plan. I don't know if that's right for you, but it's what was right for me. Good luck to you in finding a solution. I know how miserable they are. I still have migraines daily.thank goodness the birth control pills have been able to help you manage any potential hormonal migraine! That is wonderful. We appreciate you sharing about your experience here. Wishing you continued relief! -- Warmly, Christine (Team Member)
