Anyone experience migraines when their hormones flux?? I get them every time they do. When I'm fertile, pms, after my period...

If so, anything special you do for them?

Yes. I get PMS migraine, ovulatory migraine and post menstral migraine. SO that covers the entire month. I am seriously considering a hysterectomy (complete). My migraines began at 11 yrs old, same time I began menstrating. Of course insurance requires a uterine ablation first.

I suffer from migraines about 27 days out of the month. When I dont have a migraine, I worry that one is coming on!

Hi I am new to this forum and it is a relief to here of others dealing with this condition. I too have had migraines since the age of 11 I am now 39 and just had my first baby and they have got worse. Every day I have some symptom or I am worrying about getting one. It really is soul destroying. I have tried everything going and I cant seem to get a grip. It amazes me there is not more known about migraines, or the help in the uk. Family try to be supportive but if you dont suffer you dont really understand. Any suggestions would be a great help.
