A member asked:
For a while ive been having constant headaches a week before my period started and still am do i have a brain tumor or cancer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not likely: Headaches and other similar symptoms are quite common in the pre-menstrual period. It is highly unlikely that you have a brain tumor. You may wish to see your gynecologist for suggestions and if need be medication to address your symptoms.
