Migraine & Headache Awareness Month
Migraines affect millions of women and can be far more than “just a headache.”
Hormones, stress, sleep changes and certain medical conditions can all increase a woman’s risk of experiencing severe, recurring migraines.
Common migraine triggers in women include:
Hormonal fluctuations (especially around menstruation)
Stress or emotional overload
Lack of sleep
Certain foods or skipped meals
Bright lights or strong smells
Dehydration
Understanding your triggers can help you manage symptoms and reduce the frequency of attacks.
If migraines are affecting your daily life, medical support can make a meaningful difference.
