  • Title: Genetics of menstrual migraine: the epidemiological evidence.
    Author: Russell MB.
    Journal: Curr Pain Headache Rep; 2010 Oct; 14(5):385-8. PubMed ID: 20697844.
    Abstract:
    Approximately one of every three to five women with migraine without aura experience migraine attacks in relation to menstruation. The International Classification of Headache Disorders, 2nd Edition provides appendix diagnoses for pure and menstrually related migraine without aura that need further validation. Probands with menstrual migraine might have more affected relatives than probands with nonmenstrual migraine. However, precise epidemiological, family, and twin data still are lacking.
