Why do I get migraines before my period?
Cleo's magazine

According to the American Academy of Neurology,nearly one in the five adult women get migraines just before their periods.A research was carried out and the results were that migraines do have an oestrogen connection. Part of your period cycle involves oestrogen levels to consistently rise followed by a quick dip progesterone levels go up.It's during this oestrogen withdrawal that you are most susceptible to a menstrual migraine.
