I thought I was the only one with this issue today my migraine was so bad it got in the way of my normal daily routine
Me last week. I couldnt go to work for the first time because of menstrual migrane
Same. Tomorrow my sons starts school and I’m completely wrecked
Praying for everyone feel like this 😢
Having right now. Can't sleep all night
Motrin or Aleve works for migraines
Every month! I finally found someone who can explain this. The only time I don't have this is when I'm pregnant!
Me too, it was glorious both pregnancies. Except the being pregnant part lol
I can’t take it anymore. My whole life like this, ten years of working life and every month my period is a bitch! Every month I’m in absolute pain and horrible migraines. I don’t know what to do. I am constantly in pain. Nothing I do changes it. My bosses have never been sympathetic. I have to force myself to work even though I feel like a dying walrus.
Please see a doctor there are medications that can help you. There's several types of medications I think there's preventive and then there's medications that you can take as needed and then also injections I believe. I know what you're experiencing and I don't get them as often as it seems you are but I hate to hear another woman suffering like this
@@edwinacaparelli9911I am having one for the last 4 days . Today is lingering .. it’s around the clock for me during period .. pls advise what medications helped you or injections ? I honestly can’t take it anymore …
Look into the work of Dr Elizabeth Bright, I've had some improvements since I follow her advice, hope it helps ❤
If it makes you feel any better, many of us are struggling through the same. I completely understand how its not easy to endure the same excruciating pain every month for 2-3 days where you want to end everything and loathe your sick self. You've come so far, don't lose hope. Eventually, after menopause or maybe sometimes before it'll end.
Only time I get headaches. Also sometimes I get insomnia before my period starts but no other time. So fun!
I've started perimenopause, and this explains the headaches I've had for the last few months just before my period. It also explains my nausea, and my sensitivity to smells and loud noise all day.
I got bad migraines and started writing down the days I got them. And they always ended up on the week of my period. It’s crazy how bad they get. I would have to lay in bed for almost a whole day once a month due to how bad they got. The throbbing and nausea is the worst! Nothing works for me; I just have to ride it out.
I am going through this for last 11hours even after having medicine.....uhhh i want to sleep peacefully without any pain God!
Pills or birthcontrol worstened my migrane attacks. Menstrual migranes are my worst nightmare. Every month I can feel them coming.😢😢😢😢😢
Women experiencing these type migraine should anticipate increased migraine frequency beginning with peri-menopause, during/after menopause. I had chronic/almost daily debilitating migraine for 10 years before I connected the dots at age 57, when I began wearing a low dose estrogen patch. Migraine frequency was reduced by approximately 40%.
it has only just clicked with me as well at age 23 but im glad i know what it is now. I recognised the pattern, then the methods i use to eliviate them (eating something, cold head patch, ibuprofen) and i am very certain i have menstrual migranes now. Sadly, my local doctors are pretty bad at actually helping and usually just chuck a leaflet at me with advice so I'm going to see if i can find better help if i can
@@tiredgremlin6315 find a neurologist who treats HA/migraine.
Progesterone is the buffer of the rise and gal of estrogen though right? So isn’t it a progesterone issue? But if daily you can do liver work for help long hormones and there’s foods and herbs that will help with different hormones.
@@strawberryme08 Migraine is no longer a companion in my life after using a monthly CGRP medication developed 5 years ago. I began using a low dose estradiol patch before the CGRP preventative was developed, and the patch helped lower daily migraine by approximately 40%. But, if I could go back in time, I might advise myself to not use ANY HRT at all. OR, anything that promotes continuation or elevation of any hormone. Why? Two surgeries for breast cancer in the last two months for cancer found to be estrogen and progesterone positive (rapid cancer growth receptive to and feeding off these hormones).
I’m 30 and suffering from the most severe menstrual migraine and I have no idea what treatment to go with without risking dangerous levels of hormone fluctuations that may cause problems
This is arguably worse than cramps imo. I can't even move too much without getting pain in my neck/eyesocket 😮💨 Tylenol doesnt even work for it most of the time.
I get it always on back of left eye few days before period. Hurts a lot
I have migraines every month few days before my menstrual period starts.i always hav to take pain killers 😰
I recently started the Stanton protocol for migraines and it has been a lifesaver. Angela Stanton Ph.D.
My pre and postmentrual migraine is debilitating and the healthcare profession is not sympathetic when in fact I'm a nurse.they think it's just a headache.i suffer dizziness, confusion, delay response and severe sadness because there doesn't seem to be anything alleviating it.i don't try narcotics because it doesn't work either.its affecting my work and my life immensely that I fear it everyday.the neurologist advise aminotriptillin.still nothing.its hard to be a woman
I suffer from this every month and it’s severe. 😢
I’ve been having these every month since about 40 yrs old I’m home today … 2nd day on my cycle and just started throwing up 🤮
I hate this for us. Why do we suffer so greatly as women.
I know I always say in my next life I want to be a male
all jokes aside, it's a blessing and a curse being a female. I'm 42 and my migraines just seem to be getting more frequent. At period time just the worse, but also through the other parts of the month but not as severe and long lasting as the hormonal ones 😢
@@tashipoo1179 awww fuck
@@tashipoo1179 I'm getting these and I've always had migraines that were here and there and I'd say like at one point in my life in my twenties I would get them every 6 months so not too bad. But now that I'm entering my 40s and my late thirties I began having these. Headaches where I just develop a headache about the 3 days before and sometimes even goes into after. It's awful it's not a migraine though mine are just nagging headaches but a couple times it's almost gotten to migraine status
This was so good. I wish I had found this sooner.
I am breastfeeding so I cannot take migraine meds. It’s been a few months I’ve been taking MC during my heavy flow because of this. Even Dr said he cannot help since the meds are not safe for babies.
You see i don't have my period yet so i can't have this. WHY IS THIS HEADACHE IN THE BACK TOP OF MY HEAD
Tension 😢
Did anyone try something that has helped them with this?
For me it is every single month and I am on my day 3 of period and I cant stop it. I havent eaten anything but soup and water. Thinking it would help and prevent the migraine but not it still there:(
So sorry that you are suffering like this. Hunger or not eating enough food will make migraines worse.
Ugh is horrible, I get horrible migraines, nausea and dizziness! I take some pills for hormonal balance everyday and they do help big time but as soon as I stop taking them all the symptoms come back and my period used to last 5 to 7 days and now it only last 1 to 3 days I’m 35 I had my first period when I was 12 and I’ve heard I might be experiencing pre-menopause
saya sedang mengalaminya Sudah mau 10 hari head sampe kluar kringet dingin usia saat ini 37
What do you use that helped you? I’m frustrated:/ ❤
I just had it right now
I took 1 liquid capsule Aleve and 2 500 tylenol my head still hurts
I suffer a lot because of menstrual migraine..
So tired of being a woman...
Why is it we are made like this? why do men suffer less?
@@njrom2975All this baby preparation our whole being revolves around baby making as if all we do is produce babies every year of our lives. I don't t even want kids nature is extra about this reproduction. It even lies and say you want to be married. Once the hormones die down you realize its a lie
and I have them Both 😢
I'm having this now I want to bang my head on the wall
Oh no
I get soo moody.
