Taken from www.menstrualmigraine.org, these questions may help you determine if you suffer from menstrual migraines. If you have migraines around the time of your period and you answer “yes” to any of the following questions, see your healthcare provider to check if you may have menstrual migraine.
1) Does any woman in your family have migraines around the time of her period?
2) Are your migraines more severe during your period compared to other times?
3) Do your migraines usually last longer than 24 hours?
4) Does your migraine pain return within 24 hours of taking medication?
5) Do you take multiple doses of prescription migraine medication for the same migraine?
6) Do you take over-the-counter pain relievers in addition to migraine medication for the same migraine?
