Any one have tips on hormonal monthly headaches/migraines? I never get cramps anymore just headaches. I’ll keep popping the ibuprofen but wondering if there’s anything else I could try.

I’m on the pill and the prescription is written so I take it for 3 months straight skipping the placebo weeks and only get my period once every 4 packs. Then when I do get my period and the headaches come, I use sumatriptan. It’s a pretty common migraine prescription med.

My pattern was stress induced imbalances, So
1) I started taking Omega 3 supplements for past 6 months
2) Cut down caffeine from multiple cups to 1 normal cup and 1 decaf in the morning
3) Meditation and hydration

These changes made an immense help with my headaches, cramps etc., I barely have them anymore just a lil tired on that time of the month thats it.

Are you drinking enough water? You need even more water when you are on your cycle. Also how much caffeine are you consuming? Your body is also more sensitive to caffeine on your cycle.

I definitely don’t drink enough water and too much coffee. Could be it.

Trigger: rare illness post birth

Just sharing that I was diagnosed with postpartum preeclampsia 3 days after giving birth despite not having risk factors or preeclampsia in my pregnancy. Sharing as I had absolutely no idea about this illness.

Main things to do are check your BP everyday at least the first ten days after you give birth, and go to hospital if it's very high (over 160/110). If you get severe headache or stomach ache then also be vigilant.

Happy to answer any questions!

It's a small town and rarely anything comes up. I hate myself and feel like I failed my family. :(
