  • Title: Headache toolbox: menstrual migraine.
    Author: Tepper DE.
    Journal: Headache; 2014 Feb; 54(2):403-8. PubMed ID: 24512583.
    Abstract:
    Keeping a diary of your headaches, recording when they occur in relation to the menstrual cycle, as well as their severity and response to usual treatment, will help in determining the presence or absence of menstrual migraine, present in about 60% of women with migraine. Options vary depending on a woman’s overall health and response to treatment. They include stepped-up acute treatment, mini-prevention with NSAIDs, magnesium, triptans or estrogen, or daily prevention with continuous contraception.
