Migraines are more than just bad headaches—they’re a neurological condition that affects millions, and about 70% of sufferers are women. Hormonal changes are thought to play a big role, which is why migraines often intensify around menstrual cycles, pregnancy, or menopause. Migraines can last for hours or even days, bringing symptoms like nausea, light sensitivity, and dizziness, and severely impact work, social life, and mental health. Thankfully, there are effective treatments to reduce both the frequency and severity of attacks. These range from medication and lifestyle changes to interventional therapies. Understanding your triggers and working with a specialist can make a world of difference.
