Do Hormone Pills Have Any Bearing On Migraines?
A MyMigraineTeam Member asked a question 💭

Specifically Estradial & Progesterone. Could they be giving me hormonal migraines? Several doctors told me I might quit gaving migraines after menopause, but are these tricking my head into thinking I haven't quit menustrating? (I am several years post menopause)

I am estrogen dominant so the progesterone pill helped with my migraines. The amount I was taking was enough to make me sterile but it did help lower the type and pain of the migraines. I got off it to be able to concieve again. Back to the horrible migraines from my past. For some they help however, be aware that some doctors only focus on estrogen or progesterone. They need to check both levels and really look at what your body needs. Not what a text book says. Luckily, my OB and Family Doctor did both and they both agreed to the plan. It helped.
