Yes, migraines and hormonal changes are closely connected. About 60% of women experience menstrual migraines that occur with hormonal fluctuations during their cycle. During times when hormone levels like estrogen and progesterone fluctuate (such as perimenopause), migraines can be triggered or worsen. Everyone's experience is different. Some women find that hormonal treatments help reduce migraine frequency by keeping hormone levels more stable. Others may experience more migraines with hormonal changes. Working closely with your healthcare providers to find the right treatment approach for your specific situation is important.
