Menstrual migraine: is triggered in susceptible women by fluctuating estrogen levels, usually a decrease in estrogen level just prior to menses. Managing menstrual migraine is difficult; most patients with menstrual migraine will not respond to traditional migraine therapy. This condition must be professionally managed. It is treatable condition. Rec.: see an orofacial pain or headache specialist for evaluation.
